This story is WILD. Trump sent Seal Team 6 into North Korea to plant a listening device. The entire thing went sideways within minutes of landing when they noticed a fishing boat near the beach. They killed everyone on board, sunk the bodies to cover their tracks, and fled. Congress was never told.

The same people who railed against masks during the COVID pandemic are now wearing them to conceal themselves during ICE raids. Shame on them!
If you’ve got a badge and a gun but think your actions are shameful enough to need a mask, you should quit.

Exactly
Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

I feel like we need to keep saying this because it’s so insane: This is a legal U.S. resident who has been detained for over a month now for his political opinions.
The Department of Homeland Security denied Mahmoud Khalil permission to attend the birth of his first child, who was delivered at a New York hospital on Monday, according to emails reviewed by The New York Times.
Mahmoud Khalil’s Son Arrives After ICE Refuses to Let Him Attend Birth
Mr. Khalil, a permanent resident detained in Louisiana, had requested a monitored furlough for the birth. His request was denied in less than an hour.

Stephen Miller, a white nationalist and racist, is the mastermind behind all this anti-immigrant cruelty and he's found the perfect vessel in Donald Trump, another racist, who seems mostly checked out during his second Administration. But, he's golfing on your tax payer dollar.
