One of the takeaways of my current book is that the ability of the federal government to exert real power in domestic settings has always been largely overblown.
They don’t have the juice or manpower for it. This is not late 1930s Germany. There is no state monopoly on media. They are wildly unpopular.
The goal here is martial law. It’s martial law. Let’s be clear about that.

This guy is in Minneapolis standing before an American citizen in an SUV.

The only reason he's brandishing an assault rifle is because he wants the people he's purportedly there protecting to feel terrorized by his presence.

This is not protection. This is occupation.

Naming a police officer is not doxxing. We aren’t supposed to have secret police in America.

“I shouldn’t have to be thanked for being here. First off, we shouldn’t be here. This shouldn’t be happening.”

House Oversight Democrats are demanding Oversight Republicans hold a hearing with Pam Bondi to examine the DOJ's "botched release" of the Epstein files.

"Let's be clear: Pam Bondi and the Department of Justice are breaking the law every single day the Epstein files are kept from the public."

White supremacists successfully rewrote history after the Civil War, so much so that today people deny what the slave states had proudly proclaimed back then: it was about slavery. And now this group is rewriting history today. They are lying. They are liars. They are liars.

The question if a police shooting is justifiable is just 1 question to ask. 1st: this wasn’t justifiable. But for me the real question is was it inevitable. As police, we must do everything we can to avoid deadly force. Many times the suspect makes it inevitable. Not in this case

I'd love news organizations to get a comment from all the corporations, such as SPOTIFY, that continue running ICE ads on their platforms.

Do they support ICE murdering US citizens?

They still support ICE?

Let American consumers know!

That'd be ANOTHER $500 BILLION on top of the already batshit insane $1 TRILLION.

Total cost of extending the enhanced #ACA tax credits, as is, for 10 years: $350 billion.
Trump: "I have determined that, for the Good of our Country, especially in these very troubled and dangerous times, our Military Budget for the year 2027 should not be $1 Trillion Dollars, but rather $1.5 Trillion. This will allow us to build the 'Dream Military' that we have long been entitled to."

Today, ICE murdered a woman in Minneapolis.

Tonight, we’ll be mourning her and the other lives that have been taken and traumatized by ICE.

I hope to see you there.

Oh? Duplicative documents brought to light by the FBI NY Field Office? Reminds me of the duplicative Clinton emails “unearthed” by Rudy’s pals that caused Comey to re-open the probe into Hillary a week before the election.
MORE: DOJ says the batch of 1 million documents it recently unearthed appear to be largely duplicative "but nonetheless still need to undergo a process of processing and deduplication." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

We failed to hold the right-wing oligarchs accountable for the coup on January 6th, Russian interference, the subprime housing crisis, the WMD lie, Iran Contra, Watergate, and the confederacy. Elect people who will.
FIVE YEARS & he has not been held accountable for one of the most disgraceful events in this nation's history.
Trying to overturn a fair election in an attempted coup against his own government is the very definition of TREASON. We can never move forward until this is fully adjudicated. #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

For those of us not in the cult, this is what we hear when anyone from the Trump administration speaks.

Never has a President wagged a dog harder than Trump and MAGA now.

To distract from Epstein, the explosion of health and homeowners insurance costs, and the tariffs that are decimating small businesses, Trump is plunging this country into a war and using our soldiers as pawns.

Trump sees dollar signs with Venezuelan oil, has designs on other countries, and clearly sees himself as some kind of emperor of the world. I don’t think he has plans to leave in 2028. And he’s showing he’ll use the military however he wants
