Do republicans yelling at us about Bill Clinton realize most of us were children during his administration and legally prohibited from voting? lol

This is supposed to be some kind of gotcha? If he did bad things throw him in jail. I do not have Bill Clinton flags in my boat. (I do not have a boat).

β€œI Lost Everything”: Venezuelans Were Rounded Up in a Dramatic Midnight Raid but Never Charged With a Crime Authorities said Tren de Aragua β€œterrorists” had taken over the building. A ProPublica investigation found little evidence to back up the government’s claims. For the first time, the Venezuelans arres...

"300 agents stormed the building, rappelled from a helicopter, knocked down doors and hurled flash-bang grenades. Agents ziptied and detained many US citizens for hours"

Prosecutors have not filed ANY criminal charge against the people arrested that night:

It's absolutely shameless how Fox News hosts help launder Trump's lies, as illustrated by this 55 second clip. I have no idea how they can live with themselves since they are smart enough to know what they're doing.

Both parties should support this. Using AI to generate a video of a candidate saying something he didn’t say should be illegal. Especially since many voters think it is real. I will condemn any candidate from either party who does this.

The silence of congressional Republicans to all the Trump corruption - from his disgusting pardons, to the UAE crypto money, to the Qatari jet, and the ballroom, should be used against all of them in midterms along with their silence on tariffs which has made things unaffordable.

It's so funny that the White House has decided, since Tuesday evening, that its big focus will be costs β€”Β after eight months of splattering gold paint all over the White House and after a big Roaring '20s party at the private club the president bought from a Post cereals heiress.

Being annoyed that someone else's health event is taking attention from you is the essence of Trump.

Who's Threatening Who? The Trump administration says immigration enforcement are being assaulted; the details tell a different story

New, from me: DHS says immigration enforcement employees like ICE are facing unprecedented threats and 1000% increase in assaults. But the data does not add up. Look at the details, and we see state agents using excessive force, and then lying about it.

I would just like to ask the Republican Party to please put Stephen Miller in front cameras as much as possible from now until the midterms because he is such a likable & charismatic person with so many amazing & popular ideas for people who aren’t white Christian nationalists.

FBI Warns of Criminals Posing as ICE, Urges Agents to ID Themselves In a bulletin to law enforcement agencies, the FBI said criminal impersonators are exploiting ICE’s image and urged nationwide coordination to distinguish real operations from fakes.

New: The FBI is quietly urging ICE agents to properly ID themselves in the field.

In a bulletin to law enforcement last month, it warned of criminals posing as ICE to rob, rape, kidnapβ€”a problem it says now demands national coordination to confront.

Dayanne Figueroa was on her way to get coffee before heading to work when she encountered a chaotic scene in West Town: heavily armed, masked federal agents making arrests on a residential street. 
People yelled as vehicles honked their horn β€” a sign now used to alert neighbors that immigration federal agents are in the area β€” and witnesses said federal agents had arrested several landscaper workers presumed to be in the country without authorization. 
As Figuero tried to drive through the 1600 block of West Hubbard Street on Friday, Oct. 10, an unmarked vehicle driven by federal agents collided with Figueroa’s as it tried to speed away from a hostile crowd, multiple videos reviewed by the Tribune show. 
Seconds after the crash, agents abruptly stopped their vehicle and exited with weapons in hand pointing at Figueroa, a U.S citizen. Agents then forcibly opened her door and pulled her out of the vehicle by her legs without identifying themselves, presenting a warrant or informing her that she was under arrest. As bystanders yelled, β€œYou hit her! We have it on video!” agents ignored the crowd and forced Figueroa into a red minivan and drove away. 
Her car was left behind in the middle of the road, her coffee still in the cup holder, and her keys in plain view.

In Chicago, a woman was driving to get coffee when a DHS vehicle fleeing an angry crowd crashed into her car. Armed agents jumped out of the vehicle, yanked her door open, pulled her by the legs out of her car at gunpoint, held her incommunicado for hours, then released her with no charges.

I met Christi, a small business owner from Eagan whose employee, a cancer survivor, is seeing his family’s health costs rise by $400 a month.

Christi helps pay for his premiums, doing everything she can to keep him insured. This is who we’re fighting for.
