I don't think people understand that if you shut down the government, ICE and CBP do NOT shut down. They're funded by supplemental money from the BBB. That's why dems are separating the DHS funding bill and asking for restrictions. I want them to demand a rescission of that funding or shut DHS down

Today Fulton County, Tomorrow??? On Wednesday, the FBI executed a search warrant on the Fulton County, Georgia, Elections Operation Center.

The Fulton County search warrant & its implications for the 2026 & future elections is critically important news & not getting the coverage it merits. Read my most recent piece to get the download & understand why this is such a significant development. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Anyone surprised by this story has been living in a fantasy world. Since Jan 2025, the Trump administration has been using lots of different tactics to force Ukraine to commit strategic suicide. This is just the latest.
The real story is that people have not grasped this reality.

If Democrats haven't announced their proposal for the Donald Trump No Guns in Public bill by the end of the day, they're missing an easy shot

It was always obvious that if Trump faced a choice between protecting his dictatorship and protecting the 2nd Amendment, he'd toss out the 2nd Amendment.

No civil rights violation probe into latest MN shooting, sources tell MS NOW As DHS takes over the federal investigation, current and former law enforcement agents warn that Trump’s DOJ isn’t committed to facts or fairness.

Breaking MS NOW:

Trump's Justice Department has decided there will be no civil rights investigation of the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti, and instead two units of DHS will investigate their own officers and the man they killed.

Homan got this idea from
communist China and Iran, his two models.

“No single person can destroy what America stands for and believes in, not even a President, if we —all of America - stand up and speak out. We know who we are. It's time to show the world.”

When a Corporation Decides States Can't Protect Their Own Waters The Line 5 case Enbridge doesn’t want Michigan courts to hear.

Good write up of an important environmental case landing on the Supreme Court's docket by a friend and @sierraclub.org Director, @sierradave.bsky.social. Michigan is trying to shut down the polluting Enbridge Line 5 pipeline under Mackinaw Straits & the co is hoping the S Ct will bail them out.

A drawing of Alex Pretti carrying an old person wrapped in an American flag. He is saying - ‘Don’t worry. I’ve got you.’

If this doesn’t tug at your heart, make you well up with sadness, you are not human.

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.

“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

My fingers and toes are crossed that it’s true Minnesota did this to alleged A.G. Pam Bondi

Hakeem Jeffries: "Kristi Noem is a despicable, corrupt, pathological liar. We've seen her slander not just one, but American citizens, patriotic Americans who were killed without justification on the streets of Mpls ... we are prepared to initiate impeachment proceedings against her in the House."

I guess he just got lucky.

Walz: I think Kristi Noem probably should go back to South Dakota, not have any dogs, and just kind of ride things out

Here's what ICE is up to in Northeast Minneapolis today. Absolutely heartbreaking.

Warning: video is hard to watch

🎯🎯🎯🎯

A doctor who witnessed the shooting submits a sworn declaration in federal litigation to halt ICE surge in MN:

"I did not see him attack the agents or brandish a weapon of any kind."

and

"The victim had at least three bullet wounds in his back."

WOW on Pretti's denial of medical treatment

"I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to
assess the victim.

At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. ... But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, ... None of the agents were helping him."

Live: Man shot and killed by federal agents in south Minneapolis this morning, police chief says A video appears to shows federal agents wrestling a man to the ground then shooting him.

The Star Tribune reports that federal agents "attempted to order local police from the scene" where a man was shot and killed by feds this morning, but Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara refused and "instructed his officers to preserve the scene."

What lying fucks they all are.

Holy shit.

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a citizen

It doesn’t matter what the Constitution says

It doesn’t matter if there’s a court order which prohibits ICE from using excessive force

♦️They executed this man

♦️They murdered Renee Good

♦️They are terrorizing children

Democrats CANNOT vote to fund this

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”

If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.
