Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

#Fascism in America looks like...

Shooting unarmed Priests in the head with paintballs for sport.

The House is out for a third straight week. Will the GOP actually return for legislative business on October 14? That's TBD. It's not like there is no work to do. The House still needs to vote on 9 of 12 government funding bills for 2026.

There is no acceptable excuse for zip-tying children! None.

This shouldn’t even have to be said.

The guy who literally incited an insurrection is now threatening to use the Insurrection Act to torment Americans who do not support him.

Someone should start asking why we’re hearing and seeing Stephen Miller so much all of a sudden.
