A man who was charged with a felony for allegedly shining a laser pointer at Trump's helicopter was acquitted in 35 minutes
Man Charged With Shining Laser Pointer At Trump’s Helicopter Acquitted In 35 Minutes
It's another embarrassing outcome for Jeanine Pirro, who tried to "make a felon out of a homeless man with nothing but a cat toy keychain."

Getting your ass attacked by the gestapo and tossing your expensive ass Leica to a fellow photographer is the most I have ever seen myself in an image. Save the gear, yes.
Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Nothing to see here folks, just a sitting president investing in two companies whose merger he claims sole authority to approve or reject. Totally normal! 🙃

Re: Greenland, sacrificing soft power you can use to control the whole world for some land you already have access to is the work of meme-addled morons. That they think it will politically benefit them for the midterms is an extra layer of stupid

Some decent percentage of Americans will naturally view ICE’s behavior with revulsion. Another decent percentage can be persuaded eventually of ICE’s indecency. The remainder is irredeemable but hopefully can be curb-stomped electorally.
these are some pretty catastrophic approval numbers for ICE mom-murderers
