If you're in the United States, that is ALL you should EVER say to law enforcement besides asking if you're being detained, and identifying yourself in a stop and ID state.

NEW: Using his clemency power, Trump has undone prosecutions made by his own DOJ during his first term.

Experts say the actions show a broad contempt for the justice system: “He’s rejecting ... the work of people he appointed but didn’t fully control.”

For two months, the U.S. government has been racial profiling as masked federal agents hunted for immigrants throughout Chicago. They’ve repeatedly snatched up U.S. citizens while traumatizing communities. “I felt like a piece of trash.” Here is our story www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/15/l...
Latino US citizens racially profiled by federal immigration agents in Chicago: ‘I felt like a piece of trash’
The Tribune spoke to U.S. citizens and green card holders who have either been questioned or detained during Trump’s Operation Midway Blitz.

LIKE, LITERALLY
Zac Segal, Boston U runner and Young Republican alerted ICE to a car wash in Allston MA which had immigrants working - he said they were taking US jobs. ICE raided the car wash. All detained had legal status according to their lawyer.

Segal was born and schooled in London. 🙄
Student Republican who called ICE on car wash faces backlash
An attorney for those detained said, "Is he taking a college seat away from an American since he's from London?"

WE WON. I am *begging* you to take note of who did this. *Not* UCLA admin—they’re still scuttling around behind closed doors, attempting to appease—but FACULTY AND STAFF, led by AAUP.
BREAKING: In AAUP et al v. Trump (wall-to-wall union lawsuit challenging the administration’s unlawful use of TItle VI to reshape the University of California system), the faculty and staff of the UC system WON!!!

Yesterday’s executive order is about 10 months later than expected but on target to do exactly as predicted. It will fully reverse protections enacted under Biden, and resurrect church-run, faith-based systems like we used to have before public social services.

24 hours after the Israeli army announced it would reopen the Zikim crossing, it remains closed, with no trucks entering Gaza, Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud reports.

The shutdown leaves all of northern Gaza without a functioning entry point for humanitarian or commercial supplies...

I genuinely cannot understand this sentence
Trump: "Christians and more, think of this, more than twice as likely foster care they'll adopt the general population. They adopt to it so easily. When they get out, they adopt to it like it's become second nature. It's amazing."

What are four hallmarks of purity culture that also neatly align with how pedophiles think? Wow, I'm so glad you asked.

1). Sexualizing children constantly
2). Romanticizing the father/daughter relationship
3). Believing heterosexuality needs to be taught
4). Treating children like little adults

They really struggle with remembering when Biden took office
