Pro Democracy. I am struggling to understand where I fit in this current dystopian reality. Is up really down and good really bad? Pro Constitution, pro human rights, pro income equality Anti MAGA, anti fascism, anti racism

Judge Says DOJ May Be Vindictively Punishing Abrego Garcia for Challenging Removal to El Salvador Read more here.

A federal judge ruled that senior DOJ officials' comments created a "realistic likelihood" of vindictiveness in its criminal case against Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Abregio Garcia is now entitled to a hearing to argue for tossing his case on these grounds. https://bit.ly/48jnA4D

Attorney General Bondi is about to be sworn in under oath.

Chicago is currently under siege by the President she runs cover for.

Iโ€™ll be asking tough questions.

I will not be surprised when he pardons Ghislaine Maxwell, pays her for lost back pay, appoints her to a cabinet position for the pedophilia industry and then helps her disappear when she mentions that he was an integral part of their success.

The whole Epstein thingโ€™s got the criminal rattled.

Listen to him, stumbling around trying to answer a question about pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell. And heโ€™s trying so hard not to show it.

Drugs are not weapons of war. They are drugs.

The presidentโ€™s word on who is or is not a drug dealer is not trustworthy. He and his administration have been caught lying about that multiple times.

Even if blowing up random boats were legal under the laws of armed combat, itโ€™d be stupid strategy.

The party that hid racism and misogyny behind โ€œstateโ€™s rightsโ€ for decades now has control of every branch of the federal government. Theyโ€™re waging war on states in the name of racism and misogyny and laughing at the whole idea of stateโ€™s rights.

Excellent question. I think that we should get a rebate for every penny of tax where service was canceled. We should get a rebate for Congress refusing to work and refusing to do their jobs. I believe Trump wants to use the excess for more oval office gold, Maxwell bonus and billionaire prizes.

From "war ravaged Portland," we see that an ICE unit was pushed back to its defensive barricade by an elite antifa cosplay unit, led by Frog. After this tactical humiliation, ICE pepper sprayed Frog's air intake, but Frog washed off, suited up and returned to the front lines of battle.

'Trash': MAGA erupts in fury over country starโ€™s anti-Trump tune Country music star and veteran Zach Bryan's new song "Bad News" has ignited MAGA fury over lyrics criticizing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids under President Donald Trumpโ€™s administration, Newsweek reports. The Grammy award-winning singer and Navy veteran posted a teaser of the song over the weekend, with the lyrics: "ICE is gonna come, bust down your door / Try to build a house no one builds no more / But I've got a telephone / Kids are all scared and all alone." The song also touches on the deep division in America since 2016, singing: "I've got some bad news / The fading of the red, white and blue." As the lyrics went viral, MAGA took to social media to express their disgust with someone who has previously described himself as a libertarian and has also spoken out on transgender rights in 2023 following a right wing boycott of Bud Light over a partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney. Bryan also appeared on right-wing influencer Joe Rogan's podcast, addressing the "culture war" controversy and discussed defending his trans family members, including his "sister's spouse". Country singer, Trump supporter and "Celebrity Apprentice" winner John Rich, took to X to say, "Who's ready for the Zach Bryan-Dixie Chicks tour? Prob a huge Bud Light sponsorship for this one," referring to when the country trio now known as The Chicks were reviled by country radio and fans after criticizing George W. Bush. Rich, one half of the duo Big and Rich, later posted, "Nashville is full of guys like this." Far-right podcaster Tomi Lahren reposted Rich's comment with one word, "Trash," while conservative commentator and MAGA loyalist Benny Johnson said on X: "Country superstar Zach Bryan takes aim at ICE, claiming the country is fading in a snippet from his upcoming song 'Bad News.'" Johnson noted that Bryan "just drew over 112,000 fans to what became the largest concert in U.S. history last week. Now, that will never happen again. When will they learn?" Meanwhile, for each MAGA fan lost, Bryan seemed to gain new ones on the other side of the aisle. "Im not a fan of Zach Bryan by any means but calling out ICE in a song as one of the biggest modern country artists is actually huge," wrote one X account. Michelle Kinney, co-founder and chief creative officer of The Seneca Project, said on X, "F YEAH!!! Country singer and military veteran Zach Bryan drops new song criticizing ICE and the collapse of American democracy. This moment calls for moral and artistic courage โ€” MORE OF THIS!!!" Another X user said, "Wait Zach Bryan, I'm sorry I wasnโ€™t familiar with your game."

The president of the United States is openly attacking American citizens. What a global embarrassment and a disgraceful threat to America. Thank you Congress for your spineless inaction. Thank you DOJ and SCOTUS for enabling and empowering him. Everything that is about to happen IS ON YOU.
