Apparently letting a country that gave up nukes be invaded will lead other countries to decide they better have nukes cos they won't believe your promises that they don't need nukes. Who could ever have guessed?

On 6/12, DHS Sec’y Kristi Noem said “We are staying here to liberate [LA] from the socialists and the burdensome leadership this governor and mayor have placed on this country and this city.” This use of military force to displace a democratically elected is the very definition of a coup.

Think of ICE as one of those crooked Florida police departments in small towns that pulls over thousands of drivers on I-95 for any reason to meet quotas for tickets. Stephen Miller has given ICE quotas for arrests and they will meet those quotas whether the arrestees deserve it or not.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

In a statement, Frost notes an important detail to Alex Padilla, a sitting U.S. senator, being assaulted by federal agents today: “They did it in broad daylight. Imagine what they're doing behind closed doors to migrant men, women, and children. “This isn’t America. This is fascism.”

Remember Trumps assassination attempt? What ever happened to the manufactured distraction? And where did the outrage over the tariffs disappear to? Or how bout Hunters laptop. Or Hillary’s e- mails. You see, it’s all bullshit and distractions to keep you from seeing the hidden corruption.

The lack of total outrage at the indictment of Congresswoman McIvey is truly frightening. Hakeem Jeffries ought to be causing high holy hell over this. She is indicted because she is Black. Half of the GOP caucus engaged in sedition and Garland felt arresting a member of congress went too far.
