Today is the International Day of Innocent Children Victims of Aggression. Since Russia's war began, more than 19,000 Ukrainian children have been forcibly abducted by the invaders. Rescue missions are rare but are the occasion of joy as children escape the horrors of captivity.

1/ New in the Abrego Garcia case, the Judge has just granted his lawyers' request for permission to file sanctions against the government, which is very unusual.

Lost American dream. Trump declares America, Palestine.

Right

TRUMP HAS TO TREAD CAUTIOUSLY. HE KNOWS JUST LIKE PUTIN, MUSK IS IN A POSITION TO BLACKMAIL HIM #Resistance #Resist #WeAreTheFlood www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Walk & Talk - the Trump government’s corrupt angle is to suppress unwanted opinions or behavior any way he can, Trump wrote slanderous exec orders against his “enemies.” Elon told Donny to shove his WH key where the sun don’t shine. youtu.be/n2tcfEjxV_A?...

No, you are wrong. It’s just an internal fight between the drug cartels/international criminal organizations momentarily in power in the White House.

Yes, It’s an internal fight between the drug cartels in power in the USA.

This is what a police state looks like. In my country. Today.

I read this article certain that it would say that DHS had determined that the wife and kids were in the United States illegally or that DHS has already developed probable cause to believe all of them were involved in the attack or its planning. Nope! They were just disappeared. Like that's normal.

Yes, this is the big risk.

I’ve encountered zero political analysts who believe Donald Trump will leave office peacefully, and 100% of these analysts understand that Trump will need Hegseth and the Pentagon to hold onto power. Every story out of the Pentagon seems to have, as its subtext, WE ARE PREPARING FOR WHAT IS COMING.

It's a cult www.axios.com/2025/06/03/a...

not acceptable in a democracy.

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

Disgusting!

Greta’s words are so powerful and inspiring. She cuts through the noise with a simple truth: the science is clear, the solutions exist, and what’s left is action. Her clarity and urgency challenge us all to wake up and take responsibility—true leadership in its purest form. You go girl! 🌍🔥💪✨✅

Yes! ✌️🌠

Now this is what I’m talking about! ACTION! Thank you, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

Hundreds of people in Minneapolis, MN gathered to push back on militarized police activity involving ICE and Homeland Security agents. When the community members demanded that law enforcement leave the area, they were shot with rubber bullets and pepper spray, and three were taken into custody.

Lee Jae-myung has won South Korea’s presidential election. He left school at 13 to work in factories, where he suffered an injury that left him disabled. Undeterred, he studied at night to become a human rights lawyer. Now he's the President.

More tariffs, it must be Tuesday. TACO Tuesday.

Interesting! This was reportedly NOT an immigration enforcement operation. I did note when the first picture showed up that ICE HSI traditionally doesn't do immigration enforcement (before 2003, they were the old U.S. Customs Service Police).
