Vance's conduct this week is obviously impeachable. I'm talking about his public conduct. Whatever private murder coverup he's participating in is what you find out once you start impeachment.

GERMAN PRESIDENT STEINMEIER:

“.. the United States has broken with the values that it helped to establish ..

“.. we have now moved beyond the stage where we can lament the lack of respect for international law or the erosion of the international order; we are far beyond that, I believe.”

dem strategy makes no sense. voters don't like how chaotic trump is. media and dumb swing voters just convinced themselves he would be more normal in round 2. when dems downplay trump latest insanity, it cedes ground and creates the impression that what he is doing is within the realm of reason.

They don't have capacity to terrorize more than 2-3 cities at a time.

Which means they rotate teams to new cities without relief.

Which means consistent resistance by fresh activists in each new city will break them over time.

Which means if you're city's not occupied, rest up and get ready.

I don't think imperialism is bad because it eventually hurts the citizens of the imperial core. it's a stunning proposition, I know, but perhaps we should consider that other people outside of the Core are also human beings.

I should also note that 7 Republicans (Cramer, Daines, Moran, Scott (FL), Scott (SC), Tuberville and Wicker) were absent for the vote. Had these Democrats not gone along with the GOP, Van Hook would have not been confirmed.
Alexander Van Hook is confirmed 53-40 to be a District Judge of Western Louisiana. According to @senatepress.bsky.social, the Dems yeas are Dick Durbin (IL), Maggie Hassan (NH), Tim Kaine (VA), Amy Klobuchar (MN), Jeanne Shaheen (NH), and Peter Welch (VT). Angus King (I-ME) was also a yea.

The video shows that the driver of the vehicle turned her wheels to avoid the ICE agents who surrounded her, screamed profanity at her, and gave her conflicting orders.

They escalated the situation, put the public in danger, killed her without justification, and kept firing at her.

1. The attacks on trans people have become untenable, and many people feel like they can no longer stay in their homes.

Now, this morning, the Movement Advancement Project put hard numbers on it: 9% of transgender people, 400,000 people, have moved states.

I am a simple person who thinks that telling the truth about things is important. I watched the video footage of this shooting, and the killing is casual and unhurried. DHS and aligned political actors are very ready to present a story of rushed, panicked violence, and it just is not true.
NEW: At least four videos show what really happened when ICE shot a woman in Minneapolis on Wednesday.

DHS has established itself as an agency that cannot be trusted to live in or present reality.

Two queer women with a 6 year old in school today stopped to film ICE and for their bravery ICE agents murdered one before the other’s eyes. The grief in the survivor’s voice is a knife to the gut. Destroying people and their bonds is what ICE has always done.
NEWS: In a heartbreaking video, after ICE shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis, a woman who was in the same SUV cries out: “They killed my wife. I don’t know what to do."

“We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head,” the distraught woman sobs.

if ur looking for someone to blame for the shooting in minneapolis u should probably know that biden and kamala both took money from alex karp, the ceo of palantir. palantirs ICE contract began in 2013 under obama. biden signed a spending bill that gave $3.4 billion dollars to these ghouls in 2024
biden expanded ICE and embraced palantir into the state department. his director of national intelligence avril haines was a palantir consultant who participated in the torture report coverup at the CIA. if u think kamala wouldnt have touched maduro ur a rube and a simpleton
