Jones: All you do is keep people fearful because you get paid 45 million a year to keep people fearful so they don’t pay attention to the CEOS taking their healthcare. You don’t care about the American people. You want them to be afraid of immigrants because all you have is fear.

Immediate punishment for speaking out against the regime.
Mischief Toy Store in St. Paul has until Wednesday to turn over employment records to the Department of Homeland Security as part of a surprise audit launched Friday, just hours after one of the shop's owners criticized ICE agents during a television interview. bit.ly/4r5AFol

If you are waiting for a sense of conscience to kick in, you are fooling yourself. This will stop when we make it stop.
A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

a lot of us alarmists who were told we were crazy before jan. 6 for saying trump will try to stay in power are still being told we're crazy for saying trump is going to end elections
Trump says a lot of deranged shit, but, per this Reuters article — and the threats of invoking the Insurrection Act in Minnesota this morning — he is very clearly exploring how to cancel the midterms.

whataboutism from j6 (what about pelosi, the dc mayor etc) has become the default successful lie. they used it immediately with the ICE shooting (“she was trying to kill him”) knowing media will frame it as a dispute: “diverging views on video”; “at ye olde pickle factory voters say she deserved it”
politically, the moment right now reminds me of january 6 in so many ways. public opinion, fueled by video we can all see, turning against maga and trump before our eyes. voters open to the dem argument, all while republican propaganda lies in our faces about what we all saw

After federal troops forced a fugitive slave named Anthony Burns back into slavery in the 1850s, one Bostonian wrote, “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.” The abuse of power radicalizes people. We are seeing that now.

This was murder. Trump is defending a murder, a murder committed on his behalf.

America is not being made safe. It is becoming more dangerous each and every day because Donald Trump is a criminal who commands and encourages others to commit crimes on his behalf—as he has done for years.
Trump: "I have just viewed the clip of the event which took place in Minneapolis. It is a horrible thing to watch. The woman screaming was, obviously, a professional agitator, and the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting ... "

Today's shooting is one of those things where we've officially reached dystopia because the powers that be are treating white people the same way POC have been treated forever. HHOS.

ICYMI: Today, the United States of America, under the direction of a mentally unstable president, attacked Venezuela, a sovereign nation, kidnapped its leader and his wife, and declared they are now running the country.

It’s exactly as insane as it sounds.

Everyone who “partied” on Epstein’s island has gotten away with their crimes —and unless someone leaks the files, it’s very likely that they will continue their predatory behavior.

I feel a lot of dread regarding this. We haven’t been able to rein Trump in on anything because Congress is complicit.

babe wake up, they're doing insider trading on war crimes
“What appears to be a newly created account appeared to invest $30,000 Friday in Maduro's exit. After Maduro went into custody Saturday morning, that same investor netted $436,759.61.”
Someone made $400K by predicting Maduro's capture. Here's what happened
The winnings come as the rules governing prediction markets are still evolving.
