The Broadview case against people protesting ICE outside Chicago is yet another example of the Trump regime running roughshod over the law. Charges were dropped today when major prosecutorial misconduct was revealed. The judge was extremely ticked off, as Josh's thread demonstrates.

Suspicious high-volume trades before major POTUS announcements have been a disturbing pattern during the Trump admin.
Monday was no different as nearly half a billion $ in oil futures trading occurred irregularly just 15 minutes before Trump’s comments pointing to de-escalation in Iran.

Trump is sending young people to a war he invented to distract others from the release of the Epstein files at the same time he's golfing, hanging out at Elvis's house and eating caviar with guests at his home, on our dime.
Sounds like a great guy, MAGA!

I read the “Save America Act,” so you don’t have to. Most of the media apparently *hasn’t* read it because, if they had, they would be sounding the alarm about the provision in Point 1, below, which almost none of them have even mentioned. I hope this summary helps raise awareness. 1/
