With deep love and respect. What our ancestors faced when Europe invaded, murdered, raped, kidnapped, and destroyed a way of life that was in harmony with Mother Earth and all her dwellers.

Heartwrenching 💔

The powerful .30-06 rifle should have caused a catastrophic exit wound, yet the bullet was found lodged under Kirk’s skin. The case against Robinson now hangs in the balance as this single piece of evidence raises serious questions.

These freaks keep getting on TV talking about opposing antifa and how they believe antifa wants to destroy them, and not a single person in mainstream media has asked or commented on what is the opposite of antifascism and who is threatened by antifascists

"I don't like Trump, but you have to admit--"

Nope, we're good, you can stop right there--actually, back up about five words, pull over, and get out of the car you're about to drive over a rhetorical cliff.

After commenters deriding the appearance of TX NG troops made photos of their deployment to Chicago go viral, the Texas Military Department quietly recalled and replaced them

For their appearance.

They didn’t send the Guard to serve.
They sent them to be seen.

Some Texas National Guard troops replaced in Illinois after failing to meet standards

An unspecified amount of Texas National Guard troops were replaced in Chicago, shortly after photos of their appearance were mocked.

What did Tom Homan do with the $50K he took in a CAVA bag from undercover FBI agents?

Just keep asking this everyday. Its a big scandal they can't escape because Pam Bondi and her DOJ killed the investigation. They're cornered on this and the Epstein Files.

With No Kings Day coming up, I'd like to continue to remind everyone that hitting all of them in the wallets is still one of our best solutions; and, is also a unifier.

Boycotts work.
Lets prove that to all of them

#TheAlliedForces
#GeneralEconomicStrike

General Economic Strike

Boycott Everything Publicly Traded
Shut Them Down

Not for one day
Not for one Month
For The Duration

Boycott:
Corporations
Billionaires
Oligarchs

Take Back our World
Together, we can do this

Shop small businesses. Shop privately owned businesses

ICE agents continue to escalate violence in attempt to fulfill Trumps “out of control” narrative.

Here they visibly initiated an assault on a protester in Portland last night.

ICE has been deployed to *provoke* civilians, not to protect them. They want to throw tear gas canisters and get people on the streets riled up, all to create footage for Fox News and Newsmax, et al., that will be used as a pretext for imposing martial law to lower voting rates in Democratic cities.

Christopher Webb @cwebbonline.com · 2d

The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!!

Keep sharing these videos; it’s evidence.

REPORTER: We know the president moved forward with mass layoffs. We're also learning there were significant cuts to staff at special education services. Are you comfortable with those cuts?
