LFG
@briantylercohen.bsky.social: This Melania movie is basically a $40 million bribe from Jeff Bezos. For a movie no one wants to see.
Tommy Vietor: But it gets worse. Amazon is spending $35 million on marketing. This is a $75 million documentary.
I don't think people understand that if you shut down the government, ICE and CBP do NOT shut down. They're funded by supplemental money from the BBB. That's why dems are separating the DHS funding bill and asking for restrictions. I want them to demand a rescission of that funding or shut DHS down
If Kamala had been elected Minneapolis would not have been turned into a war zone where people are gunned down in the streets.
Make ICE show their faces. We need to know who’s murdering us.

ICE just confronted us in our car saying it’s our first & final warning. There’s nothing illegal about driving your car safely on Stinson, Lowry, or any street in our community.
They are purposefully surging at school get out times terrorizing our families. Ice needs to stay away from our kids.
Reporter: Are you affirming that you think the president is a fascist?
Mamdani: I've spoken about --
Trump: Just say yes, it's easier than explaining.
And everyone around the table said nothing to correct him. Not only are his comments sci-fi, he also got buy in from the rest of the folks in the room. Definitely living in the Twilight Zone.
When an uninsured US citizen goes to the emergency room, US citizens with insurance pay for those visits too. It’s reflected as an increase in their premiums.
Is the saying-
The truth dies in darkness?
Overnight, they covered up the truth.
Per executive order 13933 “Protecting American Monuments, Memorials, and Statues and Combating Recent Criminal Violence” issued by Trump in June 2020:
I’ve been thinking a lot about Murkowski’s vote. It contains, in one action, so much that defines our pathetic political moment:
Selfishness: I’m taking care of me and mine, the rest of you can pound sand;
Lack of accountability: I know the bill is bad, hopefully someone else will fix it;
We don't need Trump & Vance teaching us about periods in an attempt to have a “baby boom.”
It’s true: Americans are having fewer kids, and for some people that’s an economic choice. Let’s lower the cost of child care and housing so that people who want kids can have them, instead of this weird BS.
📌If Merrick Garland worked in the French courts Marine Le Pen would be the French President by now ...
This is so great and well-deserved. Nice work, Wikipedians. and go @mmasnick.bsky.social for getting the money quote. Paul, Weiss brought this all on themselves with their craven cowardice. Ugh.
