How's it going folks? [111]

#UkrainianView

P.S. but let's issue even more visas to russians like you did (more in 2025 than in 2024) including visas to war criminals.

It’s Trump’s gestapo. Label it as such.

ICE illegally detain Minnesota city worker—a snow plow driver.

"He had every federal authorization," said boss. "We do a criminal background check of all federal documents."

He's still locked up—and has serious medical condition that requires strict medication and special diet.

Trump bragging about his $400 million ballroom and getting up to admire the construction site as he meets with oil company executives looking to plunder Venezuela with money from US taxpayers basically sums up this entire admin perfectly.

Looking for the truth about what it was like inside CECOT?

Earlier this year, we spoke to the men the Trump administration deported to El Salvador. Hear about what they endured, in their own words: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8INs141xeQ

All of these bootlegged copies of the 60 Minutes segment flooding my feed (saying, ‘Watch it quick! Before it disappears!’) makes me feel like I’m in the Soviet Union and just got some black market foreign newspaper I need to hide under a floorboard in my house.

This is where America is now

1. A blockade is an act of war

2. The idea that Venezuela has stolen land from the United States is so laughably stupid on its face that even some of his base is like 🤨

3. It’s always about oil.

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.

This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

They’re distracting you with talk about healthcare premiums while a dictator runs wild...snatching Americans off the streets, looting hundreds of millions, and tearing down the White House. At this rate, healthcare will be the least of America’s worries.

The government has killed 32 people in 7 strikes with no evidence they were traffickers. The admiral leading the mission quit. If we had proof, they’d face a court, not a drone.

The law still applies, even to suspected drug traffickers, and right now, the Administration’s story isn’t adding up.

Over 170 American citizens have been unjustly detained by ICE this year, many for no reason other than the color of their skin.

Justice Brett Kavanaugh said citizens shouldn't be concerned about being arrested during immigration raids, but that couldn't be further from the truth.

ICE remember: Everything you do, is fully prosecutable under the law. Qualified Immunity only shields you from being sued not criminal penalties. Section 242 Title 18 of the US Code makes it a crime "when acting under the color of law" to deny another person their rights. Up to life in prison #FuckU
