Holy shit, New York! Here’s the full view. #NoKings #50501Movement

Vat on private schools, Brexit benefit. Oh the irony.

Both of Trump’s assassination attempts were carried out by Trump voters. The Minnesota assassin is a right wing extremist. The ADL reports that in 2023 100%-90% of all extremist related murders are carried out by right wing extremists. And yet the right is blaming it all on ‘the violent left.’

Pope dies - Trump makes it about himself. US Army celebrates 250 years - Trump makes it about himself. Never about his office just him.

law enforcement officials say they made a proactive check at Rep. Hortman's home after a lawmaker who lived nearby was shot and found a "police vehicle in the driveway with emergency lights and what appeared to be a police officer at the door coming out of the house." He was actually the gunman.

What kind of madness is this? Minnesota State Rep Melissa Hortman (D) and her husband shot and killed in their home Minnesota State Rep John Hoffman (D) and his wife shot multiple times and severely wounded. Gunman dressed as a cop with badge and had a car that looked like a cop car, with lights

BREAKING: An ICE vehicle just RAMMED into a civilian car in Boyle Heights. Then they gassed it. Then they dragged out the driver. All three people in that car are U.S. citizens. This is militarized racial profiling on steroids.
