Ilhan Omar spent four years in a refugee camp and ended up becoming a Congresswoman. She represents the best of America, while Donald Trump represents the worst.

@jamellebouie.net has a great column in the New York Times suggesting Minneapolis is Trump’s Gettysburg. It might be even more accurate to say it’s his Memphis and New Orleans, 1866—police riots against Black citizens that discredited Andrew Johnson’s racist policies, leading to the 14th Amendment.
All of us owe our basic freedoms, those we usually attribute to the Bill of Rights, to the self-assertion of those emancipated from slavery (and a revolutionary socialist from the 1920s). Moments of oppression can lead to greater liberty—if we do it right. Gift link:

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Someone should play the video of Fátima Lucas Henrique’s screams as she was kidnapped by federal agents on the way to her early morning nursing shift to Sen Susan Collins wherever she shows her face. This is happening to Mainers on her watch.

As masked federal agents terrorize and kill American citizens Mike Lawler does NOTHING to stop it. I was a military police officer in the Army. I know what law enforcement is about. Protecting and serving, NOT the weaponization of government against its own people.

Say it: Summary execution.
Alex Pretti was a hero. He was trying to protect a woman under unprovoked attack by federal agents. They pepper-sprayed his face at close range. They wrestled him, now blinded no doubt, to the ground. They executed him as he was supine and subdued.
This. Must. Stop.

The new video clearly shows this federal agent right after he drew his pistol. The victim is being held on the ground. In this instant, that agent is about to shoot him several times.
This was a summary execution.
If this isn’t sufficient grounds for impeachment and removal, what is?

Yrs. ago, I interviewed a Holocaust survivor, who told me she survived the Nazi nightmare but her Jewish family was executed. She also witnessed Nazis execute everyone they perceived to be an enemy of the state. We are witnessing paramilitary forces indiscriminately arresting & executing people.

Former Special Counsel, Jack Smith, explicitly states:
"President Trump was by a large measure the most culpable and most responsible person in this conspiracy. These crimes were committed for his benefit. The attack that happened at the Capitol, part of this case, does not happen without him."

Maduro is a brutal and oppressive dictator of Venezuela.
Trump has no legitimate legal basis for military action against Venezuela under United States or international law.
Both of those facts are simultaneously true.
