Ok I guess you do gotta hand it to him this once. Now let’s see some articles of impeachment!
BREAKING:

New reaction from Leader Jeffries to the racist Trump video:

"This disgusting video posted by the so-called president was done intentionally. Fuck Donald Trump and his vile, racist, and malignant behavior. This guy is an unhinged bottom feeder."

If every Republican elected official does not condemn the truth social post of Trump they should be seen as likewise racist sacks of shit and will be shunned in history.

So, was part of the deal wirh Delci Rodríguez an agreement that she “find some evidence” for this theory? Not like he’s been know to pressure foreign leaders to “open an investigation” before… right?

This combines the two things I’m most passionate about
you’re all making jokes but the reason Greg Bovino was removed from duty is a safety issue we all need to take seriously

Follow up: why does the president decide which homicides get investigated? Is the president involved in all homicide investigations, or just this one?
Q: Does the president believe the Pretti was a mistake?

LEAVITT: The president has said we have to review it

This morning, I recorded a video on TikTok about why DHS’s arguments for the power to enter homes without judicial warrants in immigration cases are bunk.

Nine hours later, TikTok still says my video is “under review,” and can’t be shared.

Well, here’s a link:

Until recently, I thought it a term best avoided. But now, the resemblances are too many and too strong to deny.

We will need a Truth and Reconciliation Commission when these cruel, lawless people are out of office. They must be held accountable in order for our nation to heal.

They are going down the list of amendments now. And the entire ICE action is the most obvious violation of the Fourth Amendment this country has ever seen.

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.

If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.

There has been an increasing sense in Minneapolis that we are on our own, that our elected representatives are unwilling and/or unable to take action to get these murderous Nazi thugs out of our community. I really hope that changes today. The time for pleading TV hits ended weeks ago.

ICE just gunned down ANOTHER person, beating a man half to death before shooting him at point blank range. What the fuck are we doing?

ARREST ICE NOW. PROSECUTE ICE NOW.

I will not rest until every single one of these murderers is held accountable to the communities they terrorize.

Seeing a lot of speculation about this storm and the power grid, especially Texas (looking at you, Ted) but what I’m really interested in / worried about is that this is one of the biggest tests of FEMA so far in Trump’s second term. Not feeling confident in their abilities
