Cannot believe this dogshit country gave the imbecilic host of celebrity apprentice this much power over life and death holy shit;

Hint for Democratic lawmakers from your voters: We want you to vote NAY on everything the GOP wants. E V E R Y T H I N G

As grimly evergreen as the headline about NYC mayors theonion.com/this-war-wil...

A MAGA Republican tweeted this.

Sometimes — What is legal (ICE) is not always right What is right (resisting ICE) is not always legal Resist

28-year-old Pedro Luis Salazar-Cuervo, who has no known criminal record, was accused by Texas police of being in a Venezuelan gang because they found a photo of him posing with another man with tattoos, his lawyers say. From ProPublica partner @texastribune.org:

“There is a vast chasm between the concept of freedom inscribed on paper and the reality of freedom in our lives.” Revisit Jelani Cobb‘s piece, from 2020, on Juneteenth and the meaning of freedom.

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

Shouldn’t the NY Times headline note that this new policy breaks the law?

This makes my blood boil.

Juneteenth went uncelebrated by the White House. That alone says everything you need to know about this regime.

Who will ever forget "Mission Accomplished"?

Crime in the country is mostly down and dropping, except in the White House where it’s up 1000000% (it’s actually worse than that bc it was 0 last year). You’d never know this from the coverage.

WaPo: US Intelligence position on Iran has not changed. lardass believes he knows better and has cut Cruella Gabbard out of the discussion.

Tomorrow there’ll be more of us. Remember that.

Telling my grandkids to sit down so I can tell them about where the tide finally turned: The Battle For Dodger Stadium

It appears that ICE agents are now stuck between a crowd of protesters and the closed gates of Dodger Stadium and I have to say I don’t hate it.

Very fed up with any and all religious justifications for foreign policy and war. Using the spiritual to try to justify dominance and killing is deeply perverse.

The idea that we can "easily" overthrow the regime in Iran is a fantasy of people that have never served. Afghanistan is back in the hands of the Taliban after 20 years of slaughter. Iraq still isn't peaceful. Libya is a war zone that's been in civil war since we dropped bombs. History is screaming!

Amazing how the constitution protects kids from transgender care but not from being beheaded by rifles designed for war!

tRumps new flag poles are 88 ft tall. 88? Why 88? Why not 90 or a 100. Let’s see 8th letter of the alphabet H . That would be HH . To the white supremely groups 88 is heil Hitler. Need anymore?

Current detention conditions are unconstitutional. House Democrats have been turned away at multiple facilities even though they are supposed to have immediate access by law. 😡😡😡 www.vera.org/news/the-tru...

The two arresting ICE officers who detained Brad Lander are both immigrants - one, a Pakistani Muslim and the other, Indo-Guyanese. I don't have a followup sentence here.

'A Lot Of Americans Are Going To Die' www.huffpost.com/entry/cdc-va...

They've got enough money to throw us into another war, but not enough money to fund the suicide prevention hotline. Very "pro-life." Very "pro-family." So "GREAT."

Three weeks ago tomorrow. 🤡

NYers! You've already seen how corrupt Cuomo is—and how he's harassed, intimidated, and pursued the private data of female staff MAMDANI is the solution to ethical leadership youtu.be/D7CodH47QOU?...

30 years ago, I warned that America was becoming a two-tiered society composed of a few winners and a larger group left behind, whose anger and disillusionment could be easily manipulated. I took a lot of heat for this speech. Watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bnd0eSuxu84

This is as big a lie as anything the Bush folks said in 2003. Demonstrably false.

Every time I post about ICE tactics, I get replies, “This is what I voted for.” Really? You voted for a mother crying for mercy while her child is still in school—about to come out and find her missing? There isn’t another way to go about this that preserves our humanity?

YouGov. Nasty numbers for lardass on Iran-Israel. Just 16% approve lardass involvement 60% disapprove. On immigration, lardass -7 since last week, 52% now disapprove. One more: lardass lost support from young men since election. Now 27% approval, 66% disapproval today.yougov.com/politics/art...

True

They promised cheaper eggs, instead, we got raids, no warrants, and people vanishing. This isn’t immigration policy. It’s authoritarian cosplay. #MAGAKidnappers #NoJusticeNoPeace

Several Ohio State wrestlers and a referee told assistant coach Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) about the sexual assaults on wrestlers by the team doctor and he just dismissed it by saying, "That's just Doc!" www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSP3...

In 10 short years we've let Propaganda and disinformation take over. I'm really not sure Technology is a good thing.

“A horrible display of waste… rotting fruits and vegetables… store after store closed… if the ice raids continue be ready for even bigger sticker shock when you go grocery shopping…” 🍎 🥕

My capacity for sympathy ends where your desire for genocide begins

🤨

“Don’t worry the pendulum will swing back” is: 1. A false assumption 2. Stunningly naive 3. Real loser shit

Whatever happens, lardass owns it 100%. Had he not walked away from Iran Nuclear Treaty the world would be a safer place tonight.

Here is the LAPD telling ICE to GTFO of Dodger Stadium. The only reason they came was to start a riot. What they got was the boot. More of this, California.

I don’t know, I just don’t think we should be making decisions with geopolitical implications that could result in millions of deaths and catastrophic damage based on a passage in Genesis.
