George Redis: Army veteran George Redis deployed to Iraq. Came home. Got a job.

Then ICE put him on the ground, drove him to processing, and threw him in solitary — no phone call, no lawyer.

He sat in the chamber last night. His presence was a message.

America's sons and daughters are in harm's way. You deserve a say.

New Independent Americans is up for Super Bowl Monday.
Paul Rieckhoff breaks down:
• Seahawks' win & why fundamentals still rule
• Bad Bunny's halftime show + “the only thing more powerful than hate is love”
• Manosphere Monday: real male leadership, raising boys, prostate screenings

Just think about this.

If you posted that, would you still have a job tomorrow?

If someone who worked with you posted that, would they still have a job tomorrow?

Never normalize this. Never accept it. Never excuse it.

Trump shouldn’t have a job tomorrow because of this alone.

They talk “mad king” Trump, Congress finally pushing back, and why disciplined, non‑violent, mass resistance is still our best move. Plus: ice fishing, Chloe Kim, Jets‑fan kids & a Patriots–Seahawks Super Bowl bet.
