Remember last month when DHS claimed they were forced to shoot a woman w a semi-automatic weapon—part of a 10 vehicle convoy that had blocked in Border Patrol agents—bc she rammed one of their vehicles?

DOJ just dropped all charges

Always assume DHS is lying

TEN MONTHS IN:

The national debt is higher.

The trade deficit is wider.

The inflation rate has worsened.

The unemployment rate is up.

Dem leaders need to be publicly threatening members of this administration and armed forces with *justice*. We need leaders to be broadcasting the fact that their will be trials and accountability. They must start NOW so it can't be painted as unjust political retribution later.
Trump has gone off the rails this morning, calling for democrats to be arrested & killed, which only means one thing: he knows his time is up.

He will be impeached. He will be convicted. He will be removed. And this entire regime will be held accountable for its attack on our democracy and people.

Democratic messaging to our military about killing civilians extrajudicially is too polite. Soliders, sailors and Marines need fair warning that at a future point, a restored military judicial process will review these slayings, and those executing an unlawful order will be subject to that process.

I find it really hard to work when the President of the United States is saying members of Congress should be killed for reminding the military to follow the law. Wish this didn't happen so often.

Trump believes he should be able to execute members of Congress.
 
Their supposed crime: putting out a video advising the intelligence community and military personnel not to follow unlawful orders.
 
This is totally disgusting—and terrifying.
 
What happened to “toning down the rhetoric”?

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

An important piece of reporting. Even congressional Republicans wanted to include appropriations-bill language to protect Congress's power of the purse. But Russ Vought has pressured them to cut the language, and the House Republicans rolled over. www.notus.org/congress/mar...
A Top Republican Wanted to Reclaim Congress’ Spending Authority. The White House Stopped Him.
Rep. Mario Díaz-Balart, a top appropriator, tried to add guardrails from ‘pocket rescissions’ in an appropriations bill. But then Office of Management Budget Director Russ Vought talked to him.

Personalized gold bars from the Swiss.
Used jumbo jet from Qatar.
Huge amounts of $$$ from crypto.

The amount of corruption in the White House is at unconscionable levels. We need some real serious ethics across the federal government.

At best this is mismanagement but it’s also pretty easy to believe that ICE is acting illegally and then destroying evidence.
The government claims two weeks of surveillance footage from Broadview ICE Detention Center has been "irretrievably destroyed" and won’t be produced as evidence in a lawsuit against the government over abhorrent conditions there:

www.404media.co/two-weeks-of...
Two Weeks of Surveillance Footage From ICE Detention Center ‘Irretrievably Destroyed’
"Defendants have indicated that some video between October 19, 2025 and October 31, 2025 has been irretrievably destroyed and therefore cannot be produced on an expedited basis or at all."

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Is it a threat to free speech when the President of the United States threatens to yank the broadcast license of a channel whose reporters are asking him challenging questions?

I ask because I feel like there used to be tons of pundits worried about free speech. Where'd they go?
Trump in response to an Epstein question: "ABC, your company, your crappy company is one of the perpetrators. I think the license should be taken away from ABC because your news is so fake and so wrong. And we have a great commissioner, a chairman, who should take a look at that."

LOL they already updated his wiki "Singular vote to not release the Epstein files." Former law enforcement, car dealer, and David Duke supporter... now pedo supporter. He is a walking stereotype of American Conservatism.
