This Trump Regime lies about its victims and it takes brave people like Marimar Martinez to fight for transparency:
The Trump Administration’s pattern is to LIE about shooting victims of federal immigration agents, calling them “domestic terrorists."
Marimar Martinez, whose criminal case was dismissed after CBP’s lies were exposed, wants her evidence unsealed for the American public.

AOC: "Early reports are that he was an ICU nurse at the Mpls VA. So we are talking about Donald Trump accusing a VA ICU as being a terrorist against the United States. A man who was treating service members to our country ... his final act on early was helping a woman pushed to the ground."

The instinct to call Trump and his administration Fascist is sometimes overwhelming - but are we being counterproductive when doing so?
My growing concern is this:
If we keep relying on 20th century language, are we actually failing prepare for a very 21st century threat?
A rambly one today.

As entertaining it is to watch Nigel Biggar squirm around feebly, what I kept thinking is how this man is a peer of the realm and allegedly an Anglican priest because it’s remarkable how much moral relativism one man can spout
Here’s the link to watch History Reclaimed’s right wing moral, logical and historical arguments being scrutinised. It’s uncomfortable viewing in places as Biggar’s put on the spot.
