Thune buries Trump’s SAVE Act, refusing to sabotage the filibuster. Republicans let the election‑rigging bill die. Trump screams conspiracy, but even his own party won’t dirty the rules to save his face.

They went from Olympic heroes to zeros as soon as they partied with a pedophile protector, and laughed at misogyny.

Former ICE agent blows the whistle:

Academy training is "deficient and broken."

He claims he was ordered to teach cadets to bypass the Constitution and enter homes without warrants.

ICE reportedly cut 240 hours of training re: the law, firearms, and use-of-force.

Trump Administration Will Collect Social Media Handles from Legal Immigrants and U.S. Citizens The new requirement poses serious threats to free speech and privacy rights.

The 3 million-plus people applying for immigration status changes will now be required to provide the government with their social media handles. This expansive new requirement poses a serious threat to constitutional rights.

The experts said: "So grave is the scale, nature, systematic character and transnational reach of these atrocities against women and girls that a number of them may
reasonably meet the legal threshold of crimes against humanity."

Yet another sad reminder that there is a two-tiered justice system in America: One for the rich. Another for everyone else.

If elites can be held accountable in other parts of the world, why can't they be held accountable in America?

So in Claremore, OK people are being arrested for speaking out against AI data centers and meanwhile no one is being arrested for being in the Epstein files. The elite and ultra-rich seem to be above the law under this administration. We truly are living in the upside down.🀦🀷

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide.

This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

UN panel says Epstein abuses may constitute β€˜crimes against humanity’ Experts say newly released documents show the need for an independent investigation into Epstein's sex-trafficking ring.

Trump: It’s a hoax. We should move on.

Trump’s DOJ: There’s nothing to investigate.

The UN: The revelations suggest a global criminal enterprise…a number of the abuses meet the legal threshold of crimes against humanity.

FBI, St. Paul police probing ICE arrest that resulted in skull fractures Minnesota and federal authorities are investigating claims that immigration officers shattered a Mexican man's skull while taking him into custody last month.

ICE agents wrested Alberto CastaΓ±eda MondragΓ³n from his vehicle, threw him to the ground and repeatedly struck him in the head with a steel batonβ€”they said β€œhe fell and hit his head against a concrete wall.”
Doctor saysβ€”fractures to his skull are inconsistent with a fall.

A reminder as we get closer to the 7.4.26 250th anniversary:

Kevin Roberts believes his fascists are in "the midst of a 2nd American Revolution, that will remain bloodless if the left allows it."

What they are going to get:

Fists in the air, revolution French style.
