Greene: "I will praise Nancy Pelosi. She had an incredible career for her party. I served under her speakership in my first term in Congress and I'm very impressed at her ability to get things done. I wish we could get things done for our party like Nancy Pelosi was able to deliver for her party."

My husband was detained by ICE today

Juan Muรฑoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away

I have had zero contact or updates since

Training the military to โ€œquell civil disturbancesโ€ is another step toward authoritarianism.

Linking it to โ€œthe enemy from withinโ€ is absolutely terrifying since that was the phrase Hitler used for Jews & others considered undesirable.

He doesnโ€™t even hide what heโ€™s doing.

A post on X by Paris Schutz (@paschutz
), a CBS Chicago reporter, timestamped 23 hours ago, includes a photo of a car with a damaged hood and text overlay. The post reports that journalist Asal Rezaei was doing her job when an ICE agent shot directly at her car today, unprovoked, with chemicals entering through an open window, causing her to feel sick for two hours. It mentions no protester was in sight, and she was simply driving by to check the scene, about 50 feet from the entrance, an area local authorities and news organizations have been monitoring for weeks. The post also notes this incident follows the detention and release of journalist Steve Held the previous day.

ICE is out of control. They must be reined in.

Hey,I remember that!
I told my daughter about it one time and she was shocked: โ€œWhat? Your grandma gave you a tablespoon of whiskey when you were HOW old?โ€
(I was around 7 or 8, as I recall.) That exact same formula. Hey it seemed to help! Soothed a sore throat, etc . Any med experts know why?

Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a โ€œfinancierโ€? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. Iโ€™ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:
