There are flyers circulating and even mailers showing up in people’s mailboxes in Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District that list the wrong date for the upcoming special election. Voters are being told to vote on the incorrect day.

Protesters in NYC literally blocked an ICE convoy from leaving their staging garage. People are learning from other cities. They’re finding ICE staging areas. They’re patrolling neighborhoods. They’re building rapid response networks. ICE is on the defense now.
ICE garage blockaded in lower Manhattan with dozens of agents stuck inside as more and more New Yorkers gather.

NYPD observed staging on Canal & Broadway, expected come over for crowd control.

Every single day it’s a new illegal action taken by the felon regime. It’s absolutely demoralizing watching nobody even try to do a damn thing about it. Dems are going to have to elect some tough as nails candidates to fix this shit. No BS purity tests either. Just a record of ruthless justice.

How big a bribe did he pay?
In sworn testimony during his trial, a witness testified that former President Hernández once said that he wanted to “shove drugs right up the noses of the gringos.”

Now he is going to be granted a pardon by President Trump — not even a commutation — and be freed from a 45-year prison sentence.
1. President Trump is directly and publicly intervening in the elections of a foreign nation and has also promised to grant a pardon to former President of Honduras Juan Orlando Hernández.

He was in prison for drug trafficking and Trump pardons him, while also blasting Venezuelan fishermen out of the water because he believes they're drug traffickers.

This pardon was definitely bought and paid for.

When a politician says: we’ll deregulate health insurance and send you a “freedom account” check, ask: freedom to buy what? If insurers don’t offer real policies or can cherry-pick only healthy people, that money is a coupon for a store that’s not open.
