Pam Bondi is lying. What they’re doing has nothing to do with stopping crime. FACT: just 1% of those detained in Chicago (10 out of 1,000) have criminal records. This means 99% of the people they’re abducting are innocent and have NO criminal records.👇

tldr: 10. 10 people out of 1000 arrested have criminal records.
10.

here’s more context to the videos DHS is putting out from Chicago.

1% and just because they have criminal records, doesn’t mean they should be arrested if they haven’t done anything. At the very least, they have the right to due process.

Rep. Nancy Pelosi has had enough of the right wing-lies. As Dems continue to show up to try and make a deal to reopen the government, Pelosi was confronted by a reporter asking about January 6th. Pelosi snapped back telling her to "shut up".

Good for her. The president is the ONLY one who can call up the DC national guard. The District of Columbia National Guard (DCNG) reports solely to the President of the United States. Donald Trump sat in the White House watching Jan 6 play out and he did NOTHING.

They are not clueless

The American citizens who still go "haha trump is so stupid, he doesn't know that he seems like a nazi when he puts us all in camps, surely when he realized it he will stop doing it" are clueless.

Its time to wake up andadmit that being a nazi worked out well for him.

The plaque honoring the law enforcement officers who responded to the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, which was commissioned by Congress in 2022, remains in storage. Mike Johnson has refused to place it on the wall, as was intended. That "deed" speaks pretty loudly.

This Supreme Court case in Louisiana is about one thing, and one thing only: reinstituting Jim Crow by way of ensuring that Black Americans are taxed without receiving representation in Congress.

Everything else is noise and bluster.

This stolen Supreme Court is going to send us back to the 1860s.
