Heads are going to explode πŸ’₯

Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third.

All that β€œimmigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit.

I remember seeing an amazing spinning soccer kick on a teargas canister close to 10 years ago that I still think about to this day.

Saw protesters up in Minneapolis kicking one back and forth with ice/cbp from the protests recently and now want to write a song called "teargas soccer".

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman

Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.

It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.

ICE MUST GO‼️

Bullet hole raises questions about federal authorities' account of shooting

Photographic evidence from the shooting scene of a Venezuelan man by federal agents last month in Minneapolis supports the account of witnesses there β€” and appears to undercut the narrative provided by federal officials.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has repeatedly claimed that an officer fired a single shot in self-defense during a violent encounter involving a shovel and a broom on Jan. 14, shortly after a man fled from a traffic stop during a targeted enforcement effort.

But at a federal court hearing in St. Paul on Tuesday, an attorney for one of the men accused of assaulting that officer showed a federal judge and several reporters photographs on his laptop depicting a single bullet hole through the front door of the north Minneapolis home. Additional photographs show damage consistent with a bullet fragment lodged in a bedroom wall down the hallway β€” suggesting it traveled between a mattress and a portable crib in a room where several small children sleep.

That supports what family members have said all along: A federal agent shot at them through the front door, striking 24-year-old Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis in the thigh, while they were inside the threshold of the residence.

IST MAN: I'm glad to be alive I was in a terrible car accident, but came out of it with just a few cuts, thank God.

2ND MAN: Don't you know you're supposed to thank Trump instead of God?

IST MAN: And what are we supposed to do when Trump dies?

2ND MAN: THEN you can thank God.
