‘Defend your culture.’

ICE sure sounds like it’s borrowing from Replacement Theory as a recruitment tool. Who exactly are they hoping will apply — white nationalists?

President Zelenskyy:

"Ukrainians defend what's theirs. Even those who are with Russia know that Russia is doing evil. Of course, we will not reward Russia for what it has perpetrated. The #Ukrainian people deserve peace. But all partners must understand what a dignified peace is.

neither the president of the united states nor the secretary of hhs has said one word about today’s attack on a federal agency’s headquarters, which killed a police officer. and it’s probably better that way, but still shameful and rotten nonetheless.

Thou shalt not cry about being mocked when you are literally the person in charge of ICE kidnapping people off the street.

The Trump administration's inappropriate contact with the DOJ and the FBI may be about to backfire as press secretary Karoline Leavitt is looped into a lawsuit seeking access to Epstein information.

“Trump calls our trade deficits a ‘50 year emergency’ — that’s an oxymoron… I have a chronic, incurable trade deficit with my barber. I buy a haircut from her, she buys nothing from me.”

The owner of a 125 acre Oregon cherry orchard will lose $300,000 plus this season. His cherries are shrivel like big black raisins, still on the trees…because ICE wiped out over half of his work force….and he couldn’t get them picked. The stupidest MF’r in America…is president.

Really frustrating seeing journalists continue using “peace deal.” This is such an insult to Ukrainians. What “peace deal” implies is rewarding a terrorist state committing genocide and an illegal invasion by an aggressor.

Good news: The largest landlord in the US has agreed to stop using anticompetitive algorithms to raise rents. I pushed for this. Carried through by DOJ Antitrust in two administrations and by state AGs.

We must now pass my bill to stop this conduct across the economy.

Avelo Airlines deportation flights hard to track On the heels of protests, NBC Connecticut Investigates has been digging into Avelo’s role in deportation flights. Our camera was rolling when a white, odd-looking Avelo plane without any branding land...

"Our camera was rolling when a white, odd-looking Avelo plane without any branding landed at Tweed Airport in East Haven in July.

Using a hex code unique to each plane, tracking software showed us it’s one of 3 aircraft operated by Avelo for deportations..."

For those who were hopeful that Trump “pivoted” on Ukraine, the meeting in Alaska will sell Ukraine down the river.

Trump is scared to death of Putin.

“In fact, where are the journalists even asking them to make a statement, OK?” she continued. “A state leader—a state leader is speaking about your constituent, and launching a lawsuit and saying they’re gonna impoverish them for executing a First Amendment right. Where are you?

“You have a literal European leader that is basically saying ‘eff you’ to the American Constitution, right? Emmanuel Macron and Brigitte are saying, ‘You know what, we don’t like that podcaster in America, and we are gonna launch ... an unprecedented lawsuit, to impoverish her for speaking,’”
