When protesters are dragged along the ground, can they feel that? When they are picked up and thrown bodily to the pavement, can they feel the impact? Oh, and what is the lethality of sandwich shrapnel?

It's the exact same ideology embraced by the elite enslavers before the Civil War: some people are better than others, and have the right-- and maybe the duty-- to rule. It was the Mudsill Theory then, and it's the Mudsill Theory today, dress it up in whatever elegant language you may.

Over half of the corporations bankrolling Trump’s vanity ballroom are facing (or recently faced) federal investigations into wrongdoing β€” including violating workers’ rights or misleading consumers.

They also have a combined $279 BILLION in federal contracts.

Follow the money.

"The Court now proceeds to evaluate the four statutes cited by the Special Counsel as purported authorization for his appointmentβ€”28 U.S.C. Β§Β§ 509, 510, 515, 533. The Court concludes that none vests the Attorney General with authority to appoint a Special Counsel like
Smith, who does not assist a United States Attorney but who replaces the role of United States Attorney within his jurisdiction."

The median income in Evanston is about $95,000.
Northwestern University is in Evanston.

These ICE/BP thugs have no idea what suburb they are terrorizing in one of the most beautiful cities in the world.

Dems want FCC probe of "60 Minutes" trimming Trump Binance pardon exchange A note said the extended version of the interview had been "condensed for clarity."

"The video cut O'Donnell's final question: "So not concerned about the appearance of corruption with this?"

"Also omitted was Trump's stammering reply: "I can't say, because β€” I can't say β€” I'm not concerned. I don't β€” I'd rather not have you ask the question."

Chicago woman dragged out of her car after colliding with ICE demands accountability The arrest of Dayanne Figueroa highlights growing concerns about the use of force against U.S. citizens and due process. She was released after a few hours without charges.

NEWS: Federal agents crashed with woman’s car, pointed guns at her, dragged her out by legs, tossed her in a minivan, held her and (eventually) let her go without charges. This as Chicagoans say the immigration blitz is out of control. (DHS blames her.)

In the past month, a serial child rapist has murdered 100 people in the Caribbean, destroyed the East Wing of the White House, neutralized our Congress, & stolen food from 20% of American children.

We pay him, house him, drive him, fly him, and pay for his bodyguards.

This is an extraordinary piece of film making. The Pentagon & White House are mighty pissed off about it. Brilliant stuff from Katherine Bigelow.

Oh, they're holding a grudge AS WELL as trolling him to his face. They've said the workers don't want to come back after such terrible treatment. Those are specially trained workers that the US can't just produce or replace. Trolling him with a historical dunce hat must have felt so good.

His shitty taste is his constant "you can't stop me" finger in your face. It represents nothing but the idea that he's above you and you must, at the very least, suffer/admire that.

I wish ppl across realized how important getting this young woman @katmabu.bsky.social into Congress is.
She has spent years occupying the corners of the dark web where RW swamp-things emit their foul odors.
She knows where bodies are buried.
She can both recognize and combat the BS.
