Just making sure when people say “this is what we voted for.“ making hungry people essentially beg for food. The cruelty is the point, you’ll never be able to convince me otherwise.

Democrats Become High On Their Own "Affordability" Supply
Hit Trump wherever he's weak, but don't subordinate all other politics to sticker prices, letting him off the hook for most of the reasons voters hate him.

Trump Administration Expected to Drastically Cut Housing Grants www.nytimes.com/2025/11/12/u...
Article barely addressed the fact that housing first works! Housing stability leads to employment and less addiction, not the other way around. Instead we get a nice ”both sides” in the 7th graph

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.

Is THIS really what people voted for. A paramilitary force, masked, with long guns, abducting American citizens in broad daylight?
NEW: Footage of a US citizen in Chicago being rammed then dragged from her car on her way to work.
Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours.
She was later released with NO CHARGE.
A DHS statement said she “violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers”.
You decide…

Some context to the viral videos:
Around 9am Friday, ICE/CBP *encircled* several square miles of a safe suburb and *stormed* it using multiple units.
They were in cars, on foot in alleys & gangways, and in helicopters. They demanded papers, threatened residents, pointed guns, kidnapped people.

The ballroom thing is a catastrophe for them and a travesty for America. Trump should meet his political end over it. 300 million in bribes to destroy OUR heritage, OUR national property, and build a hideous, un-American monument to himself. At a time where the government is imploding.

I’ve had friends and family, good people, tell me that America will always be “OK”. Meanwhile a secret police force is literally abducting American citizens, including children, and then attacking the people who are asking where they took them.
Besides black & brown people, ICE & DHS definitely has a fetish for beating the shit out of white women.
ICE/DHS, FBI, and local police on horseback, along with a secret police force in black tactical gear, were witnessed violently confronting the relatives of individuals abducted during a raid at a "Family Day" rodeo in Idaho. Among those who have gone missing are children and U.S. citizens.

Meanwhile, we had another shooting the same day that killed *two* people and in this case it's absolutely clear the crime came from the far right.
Really weird to hear all these demands for retribution against the left when they're 0-for-2 in inspiring these events.

Is there any proof that these men were “federal agents”?
The video labels them that but the post notes they were masked and unidentified.
Looks like an attempted carjacking, not anything resembling an arrest.
They ask for badges and the guy silently puts on black gloves?
