There is no left wing terrorism organization or machine in America.

They just want to kill Americans.

If you drive a 2025/2026 Tesla or still use X, there really isn't an excuse. You really are just an asshole that looks the other way.

The specific provision is section 2 of the Calling Forth Act of 1792:

For more background on the judicial review provision, and on how President Washington expressly relied upon it in putting down the Whiskey Rebellion, see:

The very first statute authorizing domestic use of the military during domestic emergencies, enacted in 1792 by a Congress full of the same folks who wrote and ratified the Constitution, expressly provided for judicial review in certain circumstances *before* the President could even send troops.

Sir James Dyson says Brexit was worth it โ€“ย even if itโ€™s made people poorer Britainโ€™s fourth-wealthiest man has argued it is better to be โ€˜independentโ€™ than tied to the EU

Brexit: the unforgivably selfish arseholery of those who lied about what it really meant for the country while dodging the cost, hassle and restrictions they inflicted on everyone else.

Ozempic might not exist if RFK Jr had been in charge of NIH in the 1980sโ€”he would have said NIH researchers studying the venom of Gila monsters was wasteful. And millions would still be suffering.

Political appointees should not be making decisions about scienceโ€”they donโ€™t understand how it works!

Fascism doesnโ€™t just start with dictators or camps. It begins when people stop caring about the law, excuse rules and protocols, and do whatever pleases the leader. It thrives not on power alone, but on obedience, silence, and the slow erosion of principle and the law.

ICE Wants to Build Out a 24/7 Social Media Surveillance Team Documents show ICE plans to hire dozens of contractors to scan X, Facebook, TikTok, and other platforms to target people for deportation.

NEW: ICE is planning to hire a team of nearly 30 people to surveil social media 24/7, build dossiers on people, and flag them for arrest and deportation. @dell.bsky.social has the scoop: www.wired.com/story/ice-so...

I canโ€™t believe that as recently as a few months ago, the consensus Democratic Party position, even on the left, was that you couldnโ€™t call to โ€˜abolish ICE.โ€™

Good luck to the Democratic candidates who run in 2028 while opposing the abolition of ICE.

A rogue fascist agency.

Beyond the fact that legal immigrants and tourists can attend the Super Bowl, I find it absolutely hilarious that they're gonna have ICE harassing a bunch of rich people. Tickets are almost $10k.

Please own the libs harder.

ICE says I cause assaults on ICE by reciting facts about ICEโ€™s recent shooting but refuses to link to the thread. Only posting a picture. ICE lies and ICE hides. You can read the facts for yourselves

"'That fucking dumbass,' one of the senior Trump administration officials told Zeteo on Wednesday, after seeing a clip of Lutnick riffing on Epstein. 'Iโ€™ve worked with him ... He just talks and talks, and doesnโ€™t care what unhelpful bullshit comes out.'"

Hamas figured out that the US priority is putting on a show that casts Trump positively.
Say something he wants to hear, heโ€™ll promote it. You donโ€™t have to do anything. In this case, say yes to an already changed proposal and leave details to be worked out, as if those details arenโ€™t the hard part.

The Vice President of the United States used his social media page to tell Joy Reid, a private citizen with no connection to the government, that she should express "gratitude" for how this country has treated her.

Black women remain the most consistent targets in all of this.

Tweet from the VP:
Joy Reid has had such a good life in this country. It's been
overwhelmingly kind and gracious to her. She is far wealthier than most.
Yet she oozes with contempt.
My honest, non-trolling advice to Joy Reid is that you'd be a much
happier person if you showed a little gratitude

Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.

Article excerpt: After Trump won and formally announced Homan would be returning with him to the White House, Sowell kept Homan on his payroll until the end of the year. Once named as the border czar, Homan said he would recuse himself from contracting, saying he would have no โ€œinvolvement, discussion, input, or decision of any future government contracts.โ€

But several industry executives who spoke with ProPublica said at least half a dozen companies vying for a slice of the $45 billion Congress has allocated for immigration detention work had hired Sowell because he had led them to believe his connections to Homan would help their chances of winning government work.

Homan's business relationships are under greater scrutiny after MSNBC reported an FBI sting that allegedly caught him on tape accepting $50,000 in cash from undercover agents posing as would-be government contractors before he took the border czar post.

His relationship with Sowell raises fresh questions about the integrity of the billion-dollar contracting process for immigration enforcement, ethics experts say.

Now that Tom Homan is border czar, his former business associate Charles Sowell is continuing to work with companies actively seeking to land a chunk of the $45 billion Congress approved to spend on immigration detention.
