C.I.A. Deputy Director Has Replaced Agency’s Top Legal Official With Himself
The CIA’s deputy director has “abruptly demoted” the CIA’s acting general counsel & installed himself in that role, thus taking “control of making legal judgments for the agency while continuing to help lead it…” (This follows Hegseth’s termination of top military legal officials in Feb.) 10/6/25 1/

Laurie Eckman, 84, said she and her husband Richard Eckman, also 84, were rushed by federal officers. She said her husband was leaning on his walker and wearing his Vietnam veterans cap as he was pushed to the ground. "With no warning the feds charged us, knocked us down, and sprayed us."

Over the weekend ICE abducted an NIH contractor when he showed up to a courthouse for his green card hearing. He is documented. His wife is a citizen.
He is also member of the skeleton crew of animal care staff that works through a shutdown, to ensure the health and wellbeing of research animals.

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.

Claim: rioters attacked ICE
Truth: ICE rushed at unarmed protesters standing on a patch of grass

Good morning.
The government is shutdown and Republicans are hiding. They aren't even in Washington.
Why? Because Trump thinks he's king. He's told his sycophants to boycott budget talks so he can act lawlessly and steal people's health care to pay for his billionaire tax cut.

A new White House memo says that furloughed federal workers aren't entitled to back pay.
This is clearly against the law, which guarantees furloughed federal employees back pay for the duration of a government shutdown.

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...

I don’t just want you to pay attention to Chicago because I want you to understand our plight. I want you to see how hard people are fighting and know wtf you’re made of. We’re not just fighting for this place. This is for all of us.

Important to note ICE tends to drop off detainees before 9 a.m. and after 6 p.m., which is why people were protesting at 5 a.m. to begin with. It's not because waking up at 4 a.m. was a convenient time for protesters!

Updating this chart because the prior version is out of date. With Mike Johnson refusing to convene the House, the soonest Democrat Adelita Grijalva can get sworn in—and provide the 218th signature to force a vote on the Epstein files—is now three weeks after winning the #AZ07 special election.

Megyn Kelly has now made multiple denigrating posts about me across X, YouTube, her podcast so I’m sharing this. Unlike her, I don't perform dislike and disdain in public,then become my real self when the cameras are off. That's the definition of the grift she accuses me of;I find it profoundly sad.

How federal agents are terrorizing American citizens
Last week, hundreds of heavily armed federal agents descended on an apartment complex in Chicago, arriving in Black Hawk helicopters and moving trucks.
1. Federal agents from ICE and other agencies are wrongly detaining U.S. citizens, sometimes detaining them for days, on suspicion that they are undocumented immigrants.
The raids are done without search warrants or other procedures designed to protect civil liberties.

Charlie kirk gets killed by a white man, HBCUs get bomb threats.
White man shoots up a white church, people talk negatively about the Black Panthers.
People get mad about alleged latin american drug cartels, a predominately Black apartment complex gets raided at 2 am
I'm seeing a trend

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.
Want to know why?
Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.
Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

Logan Square neighborhood, Chicago. Man wearing a balaclava in a white, unmarked vehicle, pulls the pin on a tear gas canister and tosses it in the road.

"Should Miss Liberty Be Deported" pamphlet from 1950 calling for contributions to challenge the deportation drives.
In the late 1940s into the 1950s, the US sought to ideologically deport individuals, including those who had lived in the US for most of their lives.
"Should Miss Liberty Be Deported?" is a pamphlet in 1950 calling on the public to help challenge these deportations.
