Being armed isn’t a shooting justification in itself. And def not after you’ve been disarmed

Just six years out from a pandemic that transcended borders, Trump is abandoning global cooperation by withdrawing from the World Health Organization — and it makes all of us less safe.

Illinois will continue to work with trusted partners to protect lives and follow the science.

Again this feels like a story that a movie studio would say was too crazy to be believable...
Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two don’t know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agent’s life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed.

Detained by ICE, two women became first responders during agent’s seizure
The women say they guided agents through the emergency, later raising concerns about medical protocols, weapons safety and accountability.

Not the key part of this story, obviously... but they *sold* his phone? WTF?
This is 10th-grader Arnoldo Bazan.

A citizen.

Immigration agents grabbed him and put him in a chokehold.

"We're from the United States bro!' he screamed.

Agents took and sold his phone

And when he finally got home hours later, his shirt was ripped, he neck had angry, red welts, and he sobbed.

I was told that the US is running Venezuela now and it would be easy and there'd be lots of money... and now the US govt is telling Americans to get the hell out.

These guys don't even know what a plan is. It's all just wish casting. It's incredible that they currently run the world.

Although Trump’s abhorrent political beliefs are ultimately more damaging to the nation, his reprehensible personality is more shocking to me on a personal level.

I can’t fathom how anyone can support someone who is so obviously a terrible human being.
