It's all a "Shell Game" with Trump! Just keep moving the Evil Players around and hopefully no one will notice. Remember he is "The Art Of The Con"!
News cycles are being manipulated to make people think a problem has been solved when it hasn’t. Bovino removed didn’t change anything but people have been tricked into thinking it did, so they move on. Same as it was.

Know this. The situation in MN is as bad as it’s always been. Don’t forget them.

ICE not only manhandled and terrorized a 10th grader who is an American citizen, they stole his phone. And then they sold it.

I repeat, they stole his phone, and then they sold it.
This is 10th-grader Arnoldo Bazan.

A citizen.

Immigration agents grabbed him and put him in a chokehold.

"We're from the United States bro!' he screamed.

Agents took and sold his phone

And when he finally got home hours later, his shirt was ripped, he neck had angry, red welts, and he sobbed.

Why the fear of offending/angering the 'too wealthy for our own good'? If you tax them what will they do? Close down their revenue streams and sulk? Flee to 'other' tax havens? If they go there will always be others. Their businesses remain or are sold to those others.
Call them out. We own them.

I've only been here a day. I feel frozen and exhausted but these endlessly courageous locals are in it for the long haul. It's their home. They have each other's backs.
And in an America that feels utterly upside down and inside out, that's really, really encouraging.

Yep.

Samsies with Reddit.

Since Reddit was taking down photos like the one I’ve attached, subreddits that had zero political bents were posting about Alex Pretti’s murder.

Let Renee Good and Alex Pretti’s deaths not be in vain. Let them light the fuse that blows the doors off this fascist regime.
