The next Big Lie is to taking shape right in front of us. Donald Trump will try to use this to assert illegal and unconstitutional powers over the 2026 elections.

"SLOPPINESS": The Trump administration claimed that a man detained by ICE had a criminal convictions for marijuana possession in 2009.

The judge pointed out that the man was 4 years old at the time.

Trump: β€œIt was July 4th of last year, when flood waters tore through a girl’s summer camp in Central Texas. One of the worse things I’ve ever seen. I was there.”

Fact check: Trump was not there. He was throwing a party on the White House South Lawn while children were missing in Texas.

Listen to this ICE whistleblower.

This is why Trump’s iteration of ICE needs to be completely dismantled and its leadership impeached.

Question #1 - Evidence

In a suit based on a will, inheritance of $1 million depended on whether the wife had survived her husband when both died in the crash off a small airplane.  An applicable statute provided that, for purposes of distributing an estate after a common disaster, there was a rebuttable presumption that neither spouse had survived the other.  A witness was called to testify that as she approached the plane she heard what she thought was a woman's voice saying, "[redacted] dying," although by the time the two occupants were removed from the wreckage they were both dead.

Question #53 - Real Property

By a valid written contract, a seller agreed to sell land to a buyer.  The contract stated, "The parties agree that closing will occur on next May 1 at 10 [redacted]" There was no other reference to closing.  The contract was silent as to quality of title.

So, one of the Epstein docs released was inexplicably a practice MBE exam. And yet, there were several redactions in it. Which suggests that perhaps the DOJ/FBI isn't taking care to redact properly.

Guess they blindly redacted IM / AM (or PM) without context.

Three rules in FBI firearm training:

1. Always point your weapon downrange
2. Do not point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot
3. Don’t put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot

Guns are not for threatening compliance for unarmed people doing things you don’t like

Under Pope Leo XIV, American Catholics Are Uniting to Defeat MAGA Authoritarianism Trump’s support among U.S. Catholics has plummeted to an all-time low of 39%, a stark decline over the year. This is no accident. Under Leo XIV, we're working to defeat Trump-Vance authoritarianism.

NEW: Trump’s approval among Catholics falls to a historic low.

A rising movement of Catholics, emboldened by Pope Leo, is turning against MAGA.

With over 20,000 members, we are the fastest-growing Catholic group in America.

To the MAGA purveyors of cruelty and lies β€” we will defeat you.

If you're a woman home alone, or a single woman & 6 masks men come to your door, dressed in tactical gear, I bet you'd be petrified.
You don't know if these men are legit, because they won't identify themselves. Or you're abt to be gang rape & killed.

Murdering people to get what they want.

Extortion.

This is not about immigration.
That’s a mask playing on hate.

Holy crap.

This is the most damning video yet.

It shows Border Patrol agents clearly taking Alex's firearm, running it away, and THEN executed him in cold blood by emptying a clip into his face.

Murder.

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need β€œmore training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them toβ€”impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

Videos Contradict U.S. Account of Minneapolis Shooting by Federal Agents See how immigration officers escalated a fatal confrontation on Saturday.

Worth noting that the @wsj.com has joined with the @nytimes.com and Bellingcat to say that ICE is lying in its description of the shooting of Alex Pretti. The video evidence more and more supports the view that this was a gratuitous execution. www.wsj.com/us-news/vide...

Bondi's letterβ€”essentially offering to stop attacking and murdering citizens in Minnesota in exchange for the state's voter rollsβ€”shows what Trump, Miller et al. are really after:

They want to fuck with the nation's elections so that they never have to cede power or answer for their crimes.

Consciousness of Guilt: An Opaque and Secret Memorandum with Threats of Reprisal 13. Despite the May 12 Memo being addressed to β€œAll ICE Personnel,” in practice the memorandum has only been distributed to select DHS and ICE officials. Furthermore, our clients have been told that the May 12 Memo must be treated with unusually strict access control for a document without any confidentiality markings. 14. To wit: one of our clients was allowed to view the memorandum only in the presence of their supervisor. They were handed the Memorandum, allowed a few minutes to review it without the ability to take notes, and were directed to hand it back. They were also informed that another employee had been reassigned for contradicting a supervisor about a different ICE policy. Our client understood their supervisor shared this piece of information as a warning that expressing disagreement with the new arrest policy could result in adverse career consequences. 15. Together, our clients are aware of multiple DHS employees who faced retaliation for expressing their concerns and/or disagreement with the May 12 Memo’s policy change, likely constituting prohibited personnel practices. One client is aware of a seasoned government instructor, tasked with teaching this new doctrine, who chose to resign rather than be forced to teach what they understood to be unlawful.

In a sign of how explosive ICE knew this secret memo would be, one whistleblower says he was only allowed to read the memo and was barred from taking written notes, and warned that employees had been punished for disagreeing.

At least one ICE instructor resigned rather than teach the illegal memo!

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!

ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

We need a full and complete investigation into Renee Good’s death. The DOJ is refusing to do so. It’s yet another disgraceful cover-up.
