Mass Shooting Tracker

Found this site for US mass shootings.

America is more violent than ever.

Violence begets violence

Please πŸ™ stop, it’s not about mental health. It’s about a culture where the DoD is now the Department of War, intentionally.

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

LIEU: Did Amalia commit a crime?

NOEM: She did not. She's with her family

LIEU: The reason she's with her family is because she almost died in ICE detention until folks brought a lawsuit forcing her release

WATCH β€” @senpeterwelch walks through a no-bid $143,000,000 contract that went to @KristiNoem’s spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin’s husband’s company that had just been formed.

She should be impeached for this outrageous scandal alone.

Yet it’s barely a blip in this corrupt regime.

Justice for Izabela! A Polish court has sentenced three doctors to prison over the 2021 death of Izabela from sepsis during a 22-week miscarriage, after doctors refused to help. "This was a case involving extraordinary negligence, a pure disregard for the most basic and fundamental medical duties."
