🚨 A woman walking to work in Chicago gets snatched up off the street by ICE. Nothing American in this video. She keeps asking for help over and over. All she gets is a photographer taking her picture and hauled off like an animal. 1/2

2/2 Difficulty: Pharmacy location in the grocery store closes at 7:00pm. Not that I'd be going out this late anyway. Apart from the risk of a dizzy spell after eating, my vision these days is sh*t after dark!

All Democrats want is to lower health care costs for Americans. Republicans in Congress won’t even come to the table.

How out of touch are they that they can't see we are in a health care crisis?

NBC just gutted the very teams that gave marginalized voices a seat at the table—then called it “restructuring.”

The cuts:

📌NBC BLK (Black community coverage)

📌NBC Latino (Latino community coverage)

📌NBC Asian America (Asian American community coverage)

📌NBC Out (LGBTQ+ community coverage)

I believe John Bolton's lawyer more than I do Donald Trump's prosecutors. Mostly though, I believe that Bolton is the victim of vindictive prosecution and political targeting. And that should be the end of the analysis.

BREAKING: Live munitions from a Trump-Vance “military demo” flew over I-5 and struck a CHP vehicle. The White House wanted the highway open—but Gov. Newsom shut it down for safety. That decision likely prevented injuries or worse.

The actual king of England has relegated his own brother to position of "Nobody" for his involvement with Epstein. The US makes Epstein's BFF of over a decade president and he acts like a King.
