This has nothing to do with crime. This is an attempt to crush political dissent.

Never before, in our entire 250 year history, has the military or immigration agents been used like this. It's dystopian, illegal, and it should stop.

Lyin' Karen said Portland protesters have "thrown projectiles thru the window" and attacked ICE with various weapons. Oddly there's no video evidence of this despite the fact that the building has so much CCTV on it you'd think it was in downtown London. 🤣

Attorney for woman shot by Border Patrol claims officer said 'Do something b-----' before shooting Body-camera video appears to contradict the government's claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed. A judge ordered Martinez and a co-defendant released pending trial.

We covered this on today's @dailybeanspod.com. Extremely dangerous and these ICE agents should be charged with felonies.

WOW. Krauthammer 'nails' Trump in 2016:

Thanks again hopeful. And please let me know if I missed following you back the past week or two as I was overseas.

‘I’m Sorry, But Your Son Is Dead’: Trump Imagines Calling Parents of Murdered D.C. Tourist President Donald Trump riffed on a hypothetical phone call in which the parent of a tourist in Washington, D.C. is informed that their son has been murdered.

lardass riffing hypothetically about calling parents of a tourist killed in DC.

In real life, he doesn't reach out to any families of victims of mass shootings.

He's a demented old fool.

Honestly if I were @abigailspanberger I’d run on the campaign platform of “Stephen Miller hates me” or “I make Stephen Miller feel like even less of a man than he already is.”

Ehh we can totally work on the phrasing but I know this messaging would deeply resonate with most ppl, ESPECIALLY women.

“everyone is twelve now” theory

It's a pretty big deal that the NYC Bar Association--one of the most prominent and respected bar associations in the country--is accusing the President of ordering the "unlawful summary execution," i.e. murder--of civilians in violation of US and international law. www.nycbar.org/press-releas...

The thoughts of an economic depression are depressing

I posted this one week after the election in 2024. Holds up.

Yes, very weird. 🤷🏼‍♂️

America saw 'essentially no job growth' last month, warns Moody's, and any roles added were in three wealthy states | Fortune Moody’s warns U.S. job growth has stalled as the shutdown halts official labor data, forcing Wall Street and the Fed to rely on patchy private reports.

Moody’s chief economist Mark Zandi wrote data from Revelio Labs shows employment increased by 60,000 roles in September “almost entirely in the education and health care sector.”

“Also of note, the job growth last month was almost exclusively in California, New York, and Massachusetts."

Judge Karin Immergut halting deployment of National Guard troops into Portland:

"This is a nation of Constitutional law, not martial law. Defendants have made a range of arguments that, if accepted, risk blurring the line between civil and military federal power - to the detriment of this nation."

Opinion | Donald Trump and the fitness threshold The GOP nominee badly needs to do what outsider Reagan accomplished in 1980: pass the threshold test for acceptability.

The above quote is from this article:
www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/don...

the late Charles Krauthammer - a Harvard educated psychiatrist - had Trump nailed back in 2016. I've yet to see a better explanation of Trump's personality:

Supreme Court rejects Ghislaine Maxwell appeal Supreme Court rejects Ghislaine Maxwell’s appeal, upholding her conviction in Epstein case.

Now send her back to the fucking prison she actually belongs in.

Again, Kavanaugh justified racial profiling by claiming that this doesn't happen--a justification that becomes more preposterous with each passing day as Trump's goons terrorize more people based on the color of their skin

No millionaire or billionaire is for an equality of speech, their ideas wouldn't win in that environment.

Especially not Elon Musk and his astroturf 99.99% in-house bot version of Twitter.

Seize control of the corporate media by any means necessary.

Stop Elon's "Noetic Order" cult.

Thank you again hopeful!

Hitler's generals tried to assassinate him several times

Even if you support massive deportation operations, under no circumstances should ANYONE be ok with US citizens being forcibly removed from their homes and detained without explanation.

This is a clear violation of their constitutional rights and should universally condemned.

Nearly 100 years ago, Will Rogers said "I'm not a member of an organized political party - I'm a Democrat" true then and still true today.
