Baguette bread, known as "bánh mì" in Vietnamese, is baked in Vietnam as a result of French colonization......The French introduced the baguette to the country, and over time, Vietnamese bakers adapted the recipe to suit local tastes and ingredients ❤️

He should have released his full, unredacted reports before the election.

Masked ICE GOONS kidnapped a whole family outside the Fontana, CA Swap Meet. The family, including a young child, has not been seen or heard from since.

Pigs.

Zero morality. Zero ethical sense. The light in their eyes is dark save for when they terrorize the vulnerable and spend their blood money.

Pigs.

That was funny. She has gotten by relying on her ambition, lack of morality, ignoring ethical obligations and nuzzling, with her nose wide open, the interests of wealthy, pathological criminals. Period. Not much more to her beyond that.

I'll save them the trouble. These are the leaders of Antifa. I believe they are hiding out in Frostbite Falls, Minnesota.

Boris Badenov and Natasha Fatale, long-time archvillain antagonists of "moose and squirrel" on the old "Rocky and Bullwinkle" animated TV show from the 1960s. Like the Antifa organization labeled as terrorist by the increasingly deranged Trump criminal enterprise--er, regime-- Boris and Natasha are purely fictional.

Nurse Alex: Will I have to take such drastic action again, David?

Being force-fed NHS potatoes has NEVER looked this intense. Cinema had nowhere to go but down after this.

If he wants to combat the cartels maybe he should go after the big banks that help launder cartel profits or clamp down on instruments like cryptocurrencies which also help criminals launder cash. But, nah, that would hurt Trump's bottom line. It's easier to simply murder foreign civilians.

The least surprising headline ever. Black and Brown people have to deal with this shit from (and all that it entails) from cradle to grave. But, sure, racism has been vanquished and we have equality of opportunity.

All of this because Donald Trump is deathly afraid of doing time for his crimes, and too many people--Republican and Democrat--were too afraid to hold him accountable.

About 13 officers in a crowd of community members and protesters were exposed to the tear gas. This is the second time CPD officers have been gassed by ICE while trying to work with them.

The move violates a judge’s order telling federal agents to rein in excessive force. trib.al/hmhsWkI

We fondly recall that time as "the days of high adventure." I have the scars to prove it. Hint: playing "tag" on outdoor metal school benches when school is out is not for the faint of heart.

Trump's mechanism to pay the troops during the shutdown is by far the most illegal budgetary action he's taken as POTUS, potentially setting the stage to break everything.

It's also needless because Congress would easily pass a troop pay bill if Johnson were willing to gavel in.

Long thread.

Kidnapping. False imprisonment. Assault. Battery. Violation of his free speech under both state and federal law. For starters.
