12 weeks of training and these guys are deployed to your community fully armed. One of these ICE SS agents:
"We're going in like Fallujah."
It's San Diego.
25 47, then 86 47.
Maganazis have to go.
Kudos to the folks in this San Diego neighborhood. Remaining calm. Capturing video evidence of the cowardly fascists with their faces covered, dressed like military. Yelling “SHAME SHAME SHAME” at those who should be very ashamed by what they are doing.
This honestly made me tear up. Not gonna lie. 💪🫡

Fuck fascists.

Shutting down the agency that investigates chemical disasters? INDEFENSIBLE

This puts workers, first responders & entire communities in harm’s way, all to serve corp interests. DISGUSTING

I stand with @azagmayes.bsky.social tell your Senators to vote NO on the Big Bad Budget Bill
Gutting the Chemical Safety Board is reckless and dangerous. And it would put Arizona workers and communities at serious risk. We need more accountability when it comes to chemical disasters, not less. www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...

IMPORTANT: Axios' analysis found local law enforcement in TX, FL, GA, NC & VA have been most cooperative with ICE in rounding up immigrants through deals known as 287 (g) agreements.

There are 629 such agreements now in place across the US.

Here's where the hot spots are for immigration enforcement
Efforts to arrest and remove unauthorized immigrants appear most aggressive in five southern states with Democratic-leaning cities, while deeply red, rural states are seeing less activity.

Lady Graham thought it was funny to post an underhanded threat to a 22 year old who is trying to help people in need.

While he’s out here with his head up Yam Tit’s ass & trying to take away health care from the most vulnerable, he makes fun of someone trying to help. Can’t get lower!!

Schiff literally just voted to advance Trump’s pick for Assistant Secretary of Defense.

You keep talking about how corrupt Trump is and then voting for his agenda.
The American public deserves to know that those serving at the highest levels of government are free from financial conflicts of interest.

Needless to say, this administration appears to be awash in such corruption.

I'm determined to get answers.

I haven't seen any other members of Congress taking about ICE (and whoever else is helping ICE) wearing masks and removing badges to hide their identity.

Call your Rep &. Senators! Ask them to talk about why ICE / DHS are hiding their identities!

Top law firms bent the knee to Trump, offering up to $1B in pro bono work to dodge executive retaliation.

Now it’s backfiring. Microsoft, Morgan Stanley, Oracle, and McDonald’s are cutting ties and moving to firms that didn’t fold.

There’s obviously a lot going on right now, but two people were killed and nine others were injured during a mass shooting in Philadelphia yesterday and it barely even registered as news. In most countries, that would be a massive story. Here in America, it’s just another day.

The nonpartisan CBO has made clear: the GOP tax bill disproportionately benefits the ultra-rich.
 
Under their "big, beautiful bill," the bottom 10% of earners will see their annual income fall by 2% in 2027 — while the top 10% will see theirs grow by 4%.
 
That is backwards.
House Republican tax bill favors the rich — how much they stand to gain, and why
The Congressional Budget Office estimates income for the bottom 10% of households would fall by 2% in 2027 and by 4% in 2033 as a result of the bill’s changes.

As a draft-dodging coward plans his military parade at a cost of between $25M-$45M, Republicans want to push through a travesty that will negatively impact 1.75 million Veterans who risked their lives in service to America.
