In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

Trump himself, as well as many of his followers plus a few voices on the left, talk as if antifa groups in the U.S. just got named as foreign terrorist orgs. From what I can make out, however, the designation and its legal consequences apply only to four groups based in Germany, Italy, and Greece.

Everyone does know what's going on here, right? Should the Epstein evidence bill pass both the House and Senate, these criminals will say it can't be released because there is an active investigation. Never mind that a thorough investigation was completed, and the DOJ was prepared to try Epstein.
