Least important thing about this, but it’s another distorting effect of the Electoral College. There were more Trump voters in CA, a “blue state,” than in MS, AL and MO combined.
NEW: In a stunning admission, the Trump administration admitted in court documents that it canceled billions in energy grants to states "based solely" on politics -- and whether that state was represented by Democrats and backed Harris in 2024.

Trump Administration Admits Canceling Grants to States That Did Not Vote for Him
Federal officials said in court documents that they halted billions of dollars in funding for energy projects to states “based solely” on whether they backed President Trump in the 2024 election.

They weren’t administering CPR. They’re searching his dead body for a gun that isn’t there because a goon had quietly snuck off with it before the first shot was even fired.

BREAKING: A witness who was just 5 feet from Alex Pretti filed an affidavit depicting what she saw.
She says he didn’t touch any of the officers and didn’t appear to be resisting. He was merely helping a woman who had been pepper-sprayed.
She’s is terrified that ICE is looking for her.

This is apparently on X. I have a few concerns: 1) why is DHS sending photos of (alleged) evidence that should be in a secure chain of custody that is now lying on a car seat??? and 2) being armed does not on its own justify the use of deadly force — there has to be evidence he was trying to use it

ICE just tackled a man, beat the shit out of him, and shot him in the chest while he was subdued and on the ground.
They call themselves law enforcement, but it’s really a gang of murderous psychopaths.

Absolutely not acceptable.
Excessive force. PERIOD!
They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.
📌 Keep sharing videos, everyone, because they’re evidence.

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

Before last year’s election, my wife and I took our grandsons on a tour of the nation’s capital, realizing it might become quite different if Trump won. I kept thinking the symbols of democracy might turn into symbols of tyranny. We toured the White House’s East Wing. It’s being demolished now.
