ICE Invaded Child’s Birthday Party Claiming It Was a Gang Meeting Federal immigration agents bust up a birthday party on grounds that it was a Tren de Aragua gathering. They still have no evidence for their claims. This is state sponsored terrorism.

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

VETERAN: “This is why they can’t wear masks. Because people like this exist… if you want to snatch people off the streets, do it in uniform, and show your damn face.” (@MarshaBlackburn’s Secret Police bill criminalizes transparency and threatens 5 years for naming an ICE agent)

Interesting how everyone yells at me when I say something stupid but nobody compliments me when I go a whole day without saying something stupid

"Can you imagine if a President started arresting Judges? Can you imagine if a President refused to obey orders from the Supreme Court? If that ever happened, America would become a Dictatorship overnight. There would be no dawn, only silence." - Barack Obama, 2011

The most important thing you must share today. Trump is destroying your life savings and ability to make a living for 1 reason: he wants to make us all beggars who bow to him, his donors and his family. Not sure why @chrismurphyct.bsky.social hasn’t posted this here but can’t be posted enough.

This is a real exchange I just had:

Who’s gonna tell him?

Tens of millions of people in this nation are in an abusive relationship with Donald Trump and they are the only ones who cannot see it. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/the-abusiv...

Hegseth says firing of top military lawyers was about making sure "they don't exist to be roadblocks to anything that happens."

Can’t believe the knives are already out in the stores. The Ides of March gets more commercialized every year.

In the face of injustice, praying for God to move while remaining stationary isn't admirable—it's cowardice. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/no-christi...

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

I don’t fucking think so.

Idk about you guys, but I sure am looking forward to all the “tough questioning” and subsequent confirmation this week 😑

Dems would get much more traction finding and promoting people saying what they know and experience. What has more impact, This man speaking his mind or the Dems speaking “in unison “ ?
