Trump’s Temu Birthday Parade

submitted 1 hour ago • 77 comments

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.

Our able men and women in uniform swear an Oath to support the Constitution—they didn’t sign up to spend the weekend in a military parade to feed the insatiable narcissism of an incorrigible insurrectionist/dictator.

You can draw a straight line between reckless rhetoric like the comments from the Speaker of the House earlier this week and the horrific political violence that just occurred in Minnesota.

We’ve uncovered fraud, waste, and abuse! ICE has now exceeded its congressionally approved budget. ICE is violating the Antideficiency Act by spending beyond Congressional authorization.

ICYMI — “LIE!!” Dems heckled Speaker Johnson as he tried to put all the blame on Senator Padilla

Thank you @jimmykimmel.com for making it plain: the media is helping to push lies about what's happening in Los Angeles when literally ... almost NOTHING is happening in Los Angeles, EXCEPT for where ICE shows up and kidnaps people. The city is perfectly normal otherwise. Media: stop playing along!

Enten: How many people watched Gavin Newsom's speech on just YouTube alone? Over 3 million folks. Joe Rogan, his average podcast episode over the last month has averaged only 1.6 million YouTube views, so Newsom's speech.. very, very popular.

4 years ago, Eric Cole was tragically run over by a Springfield, OH, officer after he called for help — because he was the victim of a shooting. He was 42. No family should suffer this kind of pain. This preventable loss demands accountability. Rest in Power, Eric.

In just five days, Trump’s administration indicted a Democratic member of Congress for engaging in oversight, threatened to arrest a Democratic governor for governing in accord with his mandate, and handcuffed a Democratic senator for asking a question at a press event. Join tomorrow’s protest!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

This is an assault on a United States Senator by a reckless, lawless Administration with no respect for the Constitution. We will not be silent. We will not be intimidated. We stand with Senator Padilla.

The violent detention of Sen. Alex Padilla was terrible. But what DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said right before it might be even more frightening—and it's just one of several authoritarian messages coming from Trump and his comrades.

Don't let them lie to you about Senator Padilla. DHS is claiming the agents DID NOT KNOW he was a senator. He CLEARLY says (BEFORE he is tackled and cuffed) "I am Senator Alex Padilla and I have a question for the secretary."

What happened to Senator Padilla is absolutely DISGUSTING. Point blank, period. This shit is out of control. Another elected official disrespected while doing their job. (1/2)

BREAKING: A fucking ICE agent rammed into a car full of U.S. citizens—then fled the scene. LAPD confirms it. This wasn’t a routine stop. This was state-sanctioned racial profiling turned felony hit-and-run. ICE is operating like a gang now. Where’s the accountability?

The fundamental choice has not been as stark since World War II: democracy and freedom, or dictatorship and tyranny. Trump and his sycophants are siding with the latter. The rest of us must loudly, proudly, and boldly proclaim our allegiance to the former.

I suppose all this tripe about Biden's age might be important to know, but it belongs on the History Channel. It's not news. You know what's news? The president deploying the military against US citizens. The Billionaire Bailout Bill. DOGE getting access to our private data. THAT is news.
