Don Lemons arrest is "...not about safety or order it is about control"!! We the people must protest loud and long nationwide for the preservation and respect for freedom of speech and the press!!!
A journalist was detained for doing his job.

If they can silence the press, they can silence anyone.

Watch.

Those who oppose ICE in Minnesota are battling not for a political agenda but for the goal of dissidents throughout history: a normal life, @galbeckerman.bsky.social argues.
The Way to Beat Back Trump Was Just Revealed
There is a word for what ICE’s opponents in Minneapolis represent, and it has a long, successful history: dissidence.

This post emphasizes the courage demonstrated by this woman, the validity of descriptions of ICE as "secret police", and the danger to our freedom and our democracy! CONGRESS MUST ACT TO CHANGE IMMIGRATION LAW ENFORCEMENT!!
A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

This is another example of how the rambling posts of Trump are unhampered by valid analysis of real world data!!
This is bad!

Wholesale prices just spiked way above expectations. PPI up 0.5% in one month, core PPI up 0.7% when experts expected 0.3%.

Translation: costs that hit companies are climbing fast, and they do not magically disappear. They get passed straight to you and me.

We must support our brave fellow citizens that dare to record the actions of ICE to show the nation what is happening!
MINNESOTA — Mom goes outside to warm up her car, ICE grabs her: "Please, my car kids are all alone in the house!”

So nothing has changed and Homan was just to put a new face on the cruelty, got it

Most definitely!! It's indicative of the unprofessional supervision that fostered the thug-like mindset that lead to the crisis of ICE attacks on the citizens of Minneapolis!!

Sen. Rand Paul speaks truth to a MAGA network about a "real tragedy and...mistake" on the streets of Minneapolis!!
Rand Paul: "After seeing this, if you call this a good shooting you aren't watching the video. This was a real tragedy and a mistake. The man had been disarmed and then shot 10 times ... if we say things that are obviously not true, the situation is going to get worse."

Anybody who believed Trump’s claim of no damage to the White House must be some new kind of fool
omg!

"Demolition crews have begun tearing down part of the White House...

"Construction teams Monday were demolishing a portion of the East Wing, with a backhoe ripping through the structure..."

Another example of MAGA anti-intellectualism (stupidity, ignorance, and disinformation)!
Fact check:

mRNA vaccines for respiratory viruses are meant to prevent severe illness (bad Pneumonia).

This means beefing up our immunity in the *lower* respiratory tract, eg the lungs.

Kennedy talks about the *upper* respiratory tract and vaccine efficacy in nonsensical gibberish.

Federal law enforcement is being used to literally hunt down Texas Democrats in Illinois so Republicans can draw new electoral maps and disenfranchise millions of people.

An extremely scary precedent is being set right now and Illinois is the first proving ground: www.axios.com/2025/08/07/f...

Texas GOP have been threatening the state legislators with "legal consequences" for breaking the quorum.

📉 When data is distorted, policy becomes fiction—and the public pays. Firing experts for inconvenient facts? That’s not leadership. It’s sabotage.

We need truth in stats. Integrity isn’t optional.

He is the keeper of the secrets. He is the one stealing away people’s liberties. He is the one weaponizing government and protecting the ruling class. People often become what they scorn. Donald Trump has become the deep state.
