This is an escalation by DHS.

Six US Citizens and permanent residents are now home after being held over 30 hours at O’Hare, transferred to Broadview, and moved across state lines.

Community pressure got them home. So many more do not have that support.

β€œF;ck Trump for trying to start World War III.”

No, f;ck the Republicans for not upholding the Constitution against a dictator. They could stop all this at any time.

Interesting that we see so clearly now, that a dictatorship is mainly made up of people simply capitulating to the dictator.

Trump openly lies about the bombed girls school. As Americans we make mistakes in war but they are unintentional and we own them.

Trump blaming Iran is no different than what Putin does when he blames Ukraine for attacks Russia clearly does.

We’ve become accepting of pure lies

Reuters confirmed that the elementary school in the Iranian city of Minab was bombed TWICE by the US military, 40 minutes apart.

This was intentional.

They did not "accidentally" drop two bombs 40 mins apart,
Killing 168 children and 14 teachers.

NBC’s Richard Engel: β€œThe White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”

The difference between the spike in global oil prices now versus 2022 is that this time the US president single-handedly caused it to happen overnight with a policy while accepting no responsibility, while the US president in 2022 was blamed for it even though he didn’t cause it.

What isn't mentioned is that the Republicans are having their conference at Donald Trump's resort. In other words, it's a kickback to line the venal simpleton's pockets. We are living in the most corrupt times.

Let’s talk about bossware and if you haven’t heard that term yet, here’s what it is. Bossware is workplace surveillance software. Software that tracks your keystrokes, monitors what websites you visit, takes random screenshots of your screen throughout the day,

The SAVE Act is a major attack on voting rights. It is not a genuine voter ID reform, but rather an attempt to suppress turnout in future elections.

Thought I would have gotten used to it by now, but I’m still grappling with the realization of just how stupid the men running this country are.

Met a young Brit flying to LAX to take a road trip with friends through the American southwest for two weeks. He asked if I had any suggestions.

I said in all seriousness: β€œDon’t get detained by ICE or Border Patrol agents.”

Russia is giving Iran US troop locations. Trump removed sanctions on Russia. The US is asking Ukraine for help on how to shoot drones down. What the actual fuck am I missing?

White House: the witness’sΒ allegations are β€œcompletely baseless” and β€œbacked by zero credible evidence.”

Fact: FBI found her credible enough to interview repeatedly, and she received a financial settlement from the Epstein estate.
