"It is ridiculous that antifa has become this boogeyman. If they're going to tell us they are going to find the founder of Antifa, isn't the founder of Antifa...Winston Churchill? FDR? Didn't they lead a war against fascism? Wasn't that anti-fascism?" - me

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.

Who remembers Epstein had a “first” suicide attempt in jail?

Totally deep-sixed. Any credible story should at least refer to it. It stinks. My jorno profession is failing:

Video Outside Cell During Jeffrey Epstein's First Suicide Attempt 'No Longer Exists'

www.npr.org/2020/01/09/7...

Video Outside Cell During Jeffrey Epstein's First Suicide Attempt 'No Longer Exists'

After first reporting that the video had been preserved, prosecutors now say that further investigation shows officials "inadvertently preserved video from the wrong tier" within the Manhattan prison.

Trump's conversation with Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto is caught on a hot mic. Hard to tell exactly what they are talking about, but Subianto asks Trump about meeting Eric Trump and Don Jr, who supposedly have nothing to do with government while they run the family business.

Federal Secret Police and plainclothes ICE agents kidnap multiple people from a neighborhood in Chicago. They then deploy teargas and brutally beat neighbors who come out to express their concern.

There is absolutely zero chance that a man who took $50,000 in cash in a paper bag from an FBI agent on camera would have been appointed to any position by any other president.

He would have turned in the family hiding Anne Frank.

A tweet by Bill Melugin reads: “Regardless of how one feels about immigration policy, according to U.S. law, this is a felony. Harboring of aliens. 8 USC 1324.”

A tweet from Laura N. Rodríguez Presa reads: “During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door. It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help. He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.”

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.
