Jeffrey Bezos is destroying the Washington Post for the same reason Musk destroyed Twitter and Ellison is destroying CBS—oligarchs oppose the free press when if it threatens their wealth and power.
They don’t want normal people to see what is happening in America.

The dimmest of bulbs don ICE uniforms.
These untrained and uneducated ICE savages JUST CAUSED AN INTERNATIONAL INCIDENT!
Call your senators and demand accountability!
Not one more penny for DHS or ICE.
ABOLISH ICE & break up the Department of Homeland Security & restore agencies to how it used to be before Bush mucked things up.

ICE is a terrorist organization
Something important to understand about ICE thugs in the Twin Cities is that they're harassing innocent kids and parents at bus stops and schools every single day. Even after the Pretti shooting. It's terrorism.

It’s about “protecting the children” but NOT when it’s the Epstein Files
Noem: "Every single thing I've said has been factual about what's been going on in Mpls, in Minnesota...we've surged HSI there to focus on sex trafficking & child trafficking. It's so prevalent in MN. It's horrific...we're gonna keep hundreds of HSI officers there to continue to protect those kids."
