Using Stephen Miller in this👇🏻 way would be a great idea!

So when Israel obtained nuclear weapons it was presumably legitimate to bomb the facilities and kill children living near the scientists who worked on it? Why is it OK for Netanyahu to control such mass destruction when he has been deliberately destroying Gaza?

It's important to underscore that nothing about Israel's attacks on Iran have been legal under the laws of war. To begin with, it was a preventive, not preemptive strike. Moreover, civilian energy and power facilities are not legitimate targets, except under very specific conditions not met here.

This is precisely the concern I raised with Gov. Walz on Thursday, and which today has tragically become reality. Masked ICE agents make it easier for criminals to impersonate law enforcement.

It is true. ICE would still be brutalizing immigrants, cops would still be rioting, Israel would still be committing atrocities with our money, capitalism would still be destroying the planet - but they would indeed be at brunch.

I know there's a lot going on, but the Secretary of Homeland Security declaring that federal troops are in California and Los Angeles to "liberate" the state and city from its duly-elected leaders really is a fourteen-alarm fire.

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

Gavin Newsom on Donald Trump’s cognitive decline: “He’s lost it. I saw him trip on the steps today. I mean this is serious. He is not the same person that I dealt with just four years ago. He’e incapable of even a train of thought. He’s making things up and he’s putting people’s lives at risk.”

LAPD’s Chief says they still have no idea what the military’s mission in LA is. There are no open deconfliction channels between the military and local law enforcement. Having multiple groups with weapons operating in the same area with no way to communicate is fucking insane.

To put it directly: someone folks in the chain of command there decided to work-to-rule and got backed up by enough other officers to delay the Marines from getting to LA for a few days, by which time things will either be calmer or those being deployed will be better able to keep the peace

This might be the most batshit insane one I've seen yet. LAPD point-blank shoots a woman trying to walk home, no one else around.

Stephen Miller ordered ICE to ramp up arrests—focusing not on violent criminals, but anyone they could grab. Home Depot raids, protests, and military escalation followed. This isn’t law and order. It’s chaos by design. Dangerous, deliberate, and disgraceful. www.forbes.com/sites/stuart...

Just to be clear: the President has mobilized the Marines on American soil because people are protesting masked, secret police kidnapping people with no due process and shipping them to foreign death camps. It’s not a misunderstanding or an oversight. That is all it is. There is no other side.
