I went on Fox News this morning to tell conservatives what is happening to their nation. ICE is out of control - teargassing schools, murdering American citizens, and obliterating the constitutional rights Republicans claim to care about. Every citizen should want this to stop.

The FBI is now going to journalist homes and stealing their devices.

Subsequently putting a would be whistleblower in danger.

A free press has been lacking in America for decades.

Now they're raiding the homes of journalist.

I'm sure arresting journalist is right around the corner.

Sick
ICE THUGS arrested a pastor & kept asking him "Are you afraid?" numerous occasions. The pastor said NO. Eventually the THUGS let him go stating that "You're WHITE, you're no fun to us!!"
This is how sick & deranged these THUGS are, thanks to this REGIME‼️

Since last year, Trump admin planned what to do if ICE agents were accused of crimes (even murder):
Protect them “no matter what."

Trump laid out ways to retaliate:
—Refuse to hand over an agent
—Charge local officials with “obstructing"
—Threaten to cut off more funding

Very good list to follow
With most of mainstream media in the tank for Trump and the oligarchs, please support your indie journalists and truth tellers.

Not an exhaustive list, but there are some excellent ones in this pack.

American intelligence does not confirm the fact of a drone attack on Putin's residence.
There is neither evidence nor recorded activity of Ukrainian drones within the radius of the residence.

Trump repeats any lie that Putin utters.

Elections are being tampered with; we need to get the big money out
How we beat back the corporate takeover of America:

1. Break up corporate monopolies
2. Continue building union power
3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics

Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

You can watch the 60 Minutes piece (with a link in my story) about the abuse & torture migrants received in the El Salvador gulag after being deported by the Trump regime without due process & lies about their criminality. This horror is what Trump apologist Bari Weiss didn’t want Americans to see.
Bullseye from 60 Minutes journalist Sharyn Alfonsi in response to Bari Weiss: “If the administration’s refusal to participate becomes a valid reason to spike a story, we have effectively handed them a ‘kill switch’ for any reporting they find inconvenient.”
