These goons could have just left a note on the windshield: "We hit your car. Sorry."

I have never owned a gun. My sincere advice to all citizens of Chicago who drive a car:

CARRY.

These goons will keep swinging their dicks until a few of them take the dirt nap. Then watch the pussies go back home

“YOU hit HER.”

CHICAGO - Trump’s ICE goons ram into a passing car after snatching someone, then brutally drag the female driver of the car they hit out of her car with guns drawn and arrest her too. (Her brother says she’s a citizen)

Right-wing figures have called on Trump to use the law — allowing the military to be used for domestic law enforcement — in response to various demonstrations since at least as far back as 2020.

Right-wing media are calling for Trump to invoke the Insurrection Act

President Donald Trump recently suggested he may be willing to invoke the Insurrection Act as protests continue in Chicago and Portland against Immigration and Customs Enforcement activity and deploym...

In direct contrast to coverage from right-wing media, Portland residents and officials have emphasized that it's actually federal agents who have been engaging in “violent tactics” against protesters.

Right-wing media say Portland is a war zone under siege. Local news paints a different picture.

Right-wing media claim that Portland’s protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement show a city “under siege” or “conquered by antifa,” but local news programs have reported the opposite. Mult...

A Newsmax host defended ICE agents shooting a minister in the head with a pepper ball by falsely claiming he was “actually an antifa member masquerading as a pastor.”

Even as President Trump’s destructive tariffs disrupted the global economy and tanked the stock market, we found that among right-leaning online shows that self-categorize as nonpolitical, a full quarter of discussions still embraced the president’s deeply unpopular economic policy.

Study: Most Pro-Trump podcasters support Trump's tariffs but some fractures emerge

In a new study of top pro-Trump online shows in the days after President Donald Trump launched his formal tariff plan, Media Matters has found some dissension as his economic policy disrupts the globa...

"Ah, the political awakening! Sometimes it takes a catalyst like that to make us realize where we truly stand. Trump's candidacy definitely sparked intense reflections for many on their values and beliefs. Sounds like you discovered a part of your political identity in a pretty memorable way!"
