As we mentioned when we attended the hearing, government witnesses almost all had something to gain… and their story that Kilmar took his family (3 kids, 2 with autism) on almost all his alleged cross-country smuggling trips — “3-4x weekly” — is preposterous The judge agreed👇🏽

Worse approval ratings than chlamydia, let’s see if anything matters.

WATCH: “This is f*cking kidnapping! That’s not your badge… I do have a little bit of education… get the f*ck out of here, racial profiling is illegal…” A brave woman melts ice 🧊 💪🏽 www.instagram.com/reel/DLOWbEs...

“He has always worked hard to put food on the table for us and my mom,” said Alejandro. “He was always careful and always did his taxes on time. He never caused any problems and he is known as a kind and helping person by everyone in our community.” santanero.org/2025/06/21/l...

This is the kind of excessive force case DOJ routinely prosecutes. They should open an investigation here, based on the misconduct not the victims status.

Trump won’t listen to cooler, more competent voices. He just wants to blow shit up and act like he’s some big, bad dude when the reality is he’s sniveling and weak.

Beyond parody.

Seems like an important point

Congress passed a law to place a plaque in the Capitol honoring the officers who protected the transfer of power, Members of Congress and VP Pence on Jan 6. The plaque is complete and long overdue for display. But Speaker Johnson is leaving it in a dark closet.

In ruling that she will order his release soon, Judge Holmes expressed doubt that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a member of MS-13. He has no criminal history, and the claim is "contradicted" by the government's evidence, she wrote. Full story. www.allrisenews.com/p/abrego-rel...

NEW: Magistrate Judge Barbara Holmes DENIES the Trump administrations bid to detain Mr. Abrego pending trial in a SCATHING rebuke of the government's evidence. www.muellershewrote.com/p/judge-deni...

KTLA - Narciso Barranco, a father to three sons who are all US Marines, pepper-sprayed and punched in the face by alleged federal immigration officers while he was working as a landscaper at an IHOP. He was then forced into the back of an unmarked car in Santa Ana.

you’ll never lose betting against the ability of a pro-war pundit to remember past yesterday

Wow so you’re telling me everyone who cheered on the Iraq war is on board with this now too? And so are the people who opposed the Iran nuclear deal and killed it? You’re kidding.

“U.S. Officials Concede They Don’t Know Whereabouts of Iran’s Uranium Stockpile” Mission accomplished! 🤦🏽‍♂️

✅Illegal & expensive Tariff War ✅Illegal & callous decimation of the federal workforce. ✅Illegal invasion of Iran. REMIND ME, again… who are the “ILLEGALS?”

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."  -Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

all i want is to one day own a modest sized home in a walkable neighborhood and raise money for shelter animals. wear an outfit i like, walk to the grocery store, buy some nectarines, feed cats, and live in peace. just don't understand why achieving this is so hard

➡️ WE DO NOT FORGET: *a Trump-loving MAGA assassin murdered Minnesota lawmaker Melissa Hortman, her husband, Mark, and shot others *ICE agents are kidnapping and disappearing immigrants off of the streets of America *Trump/the GOP are destroying working American families to benefit the ultra-rich

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore. Make it make sense.

In light of our idiot President's attack on Iran I am watching idiocracy again today.

FOR FUCK'S SAKE PEOPLE PLEASE STOP TELLING ME THAT SOMETHING IS A DISTRACTION FROM SOMETHING ELSE. WE CAN ALL KEEP MORE THAN ONE THING IN OUR HEADS AT A TIME, OK? NOW SHUT THE FUCK UP

As our nation girds for possible Iranian terrorist attacks, this is the person Trump put in charge of terrorism prevention. 22 years old. Recent work experience: landscaping/grocery clerk. Never worked a day in counter-terrorism. But he’s a BIG Trump fan. So he got the job.

“This reckless behavior is just the latest effort of an immunized despot to follow his whims, consolidate power and feed his fragile ego.“ open.substack.com/pub/america/...

Trump’s attack against Iran is illegal and immoral. And any leader who tells you otherwise is lying to you.

The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences. The American people were lied to about Iraq, with tragic consequences. The American people are being lied to again today. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.

NEWS: Senate Parliamentarian says GOP scheme to limit federal court preliminary injunctions by requiring plaintiffs challenging government actions to post large bonds cannot be part of reconciliation bill. A victory for Democrats, rule of law and the courts and a defeat for Trump and the GOP.

Launching the U.S. into what could be yet another unpopular and costly forever war, while simultaneously pushing for an unpopular budget bill at home that will take food and healthcare away from millions of people. The "peace president."

The mayor of Huntington Park had formally directed the police department to enforce laws against ICE concerning unmarked vehicles, visible license plates and required agency identification.

After sharing the news with the audience, they immediately broke into a booming chant of “No More Wars!” Sanders then said: “It is so grossly unconstitutional. All of you know it. That the only entity that can take this country to war, is the US Congress. The President does not have the right!”

Meanwhile, the federal government of the United States of America is hard at work hunting down and arresting random beloved local bagel shop managers. Neighbors and friends respond: pix11.com/news/local-n...

Last night, Trump said Iran’s nuclear program was “completely and totally obliterated.” This morning, JD Vance says we will “permanently dismantle that nuclear program over the coming years.” Which is it? Sounds like more endless war against the will of the American people.

DefSec Pete Hegseth was asked at Pentagon presser about the US intelligence community conclusion that Iran was NOT proceeding with a nuclear weapons program. He refused to answer and praised Donald Trump. That’s one big tell.

So Trump intentionally didn’t tell top congressional Democrats, especially those on Intel, before the strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. But he made sure to let congressional Republicans know beforehand.

I was briefed on the intelligence last week. Iran posed no imminent threat of attack to the United States. Iran was not close to building a deliverable nuclear weapon. The negotiations Israel scuttled with their strikes held the potential for success.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

Trump bombing Iran was illegal and unjustified. I ran for Congress to make sure our leaders consider the true costs of war. And I will be in the Senate, standing on my titanium legs, demanding answers from Trump. My statement:

We live in a rogue and dangerous country. Do what you need to do to maintain your internal peace. Hold the core of your spirit. Pray for peace. Commit yourself to justice. And just rest.

AOC: “It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

The United States should not wage war against Iran. Donald Trump’s bombing of Iran is unconstitutional. Only Congress can declare war — and the Senate must vote immediately to prevent an another endless war. This is a horrific war of choice.

We have a madman in the White House who is actively trying to trigger total war. If Jeffries, Schumer, or any other Democratic leaders try to justify this, shrug indifferently, or write a strongly-worded letter and call it a day, they need to step down or be aggressively primaried.

'This is not Constitutional': GOP congressman stands up to Trump on Iran strike www.rawstory.com/trump-massie...

Everyone running for public office needs to unequivocally say whether they support Trump’s attacks on Iran — attacks which put hundreds of millions of lives at risk. My answer is an unequivocal NO and there’s no excuse for a candidate to say anything different.
