The new ICE song by Jesse Welles nails it.

ICE isn’t recruiting heroes, it’s recruiting the bitter, the rejected, the ones desperate for a badge to cover their failures.

Losers with power become the most dangerous kind.

Remember how MAGA told us Javier Milei would fix Argentina's economy with his right-wing policies?

And now we are bailing out Argentina with billions.

Remember how MAGA told us Donald Trump would save US farmers with his right-wing policies?

And now we are bailing them out with billions also.

I still go over there, to ‘X’, just to see how things are. It’s a cesspool of hatred. I have to believe that it’s more than 50% bots & trolls now, if not more. I have a hard time believing that real people could act the way they do and say the things they say. Out in the open, for all to see. 🤦🏼‍♀️

I’m in Illinois. I’ve been happy with my governor, but this just keeps raising him higher!

Narrator: This is fascism.

The image is an X post by Mike Nellis (@MikeNellis
) from 19 hours ago, stating: "So let me get this straight: a Blackhawk helicopter and dozens of masked, armed federal agents roll up on a Chicago apartment building, cuff everyone—including kids—and then run checks for warrants and immigration status? What the hell is going on in this country? How is that not fascism?" The post includes a verified badge.

Who could ever have imagined when I played a fictional rebel who joined the Resistance to oppose a criminal Authoritarian & wannabe King, it would be happening in real-life?

the people who told us to calm down because Roe was settled law are the same people now telling us to calm down because the military would never open fire on Americans

I wonder how he’d feel if she returned the ‘favor’ & made an AI version of him with a massive ‘member’. And make sure it’s erect to show how truly massive it is! “Oh hunny! It’s okay, really! I just really like guys with huge wangs! It’s harmless, really!” 🙄

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality.

I don't know how to yell any louder.

One thing I've learned from the Internet is that a lie needs 0% proof to be believed, but the truth requires thousands of pages of proof and still won't be believed.

These are the things I’m doing for my grandkids. Have been since they were born. An added bonus, we’re VERY close. The oldest is 14 & he tells me things he said he isn’t comfortable telling his parents.

There is absolutely no explanation as to why the White House would call releasing the Epstein Files a “hostile act” 3 weeks ago other than that he is in them. He thinks he’s distracted you from this. He hasn’t. Keep demanding their release.
