Here's to those that break the cycle and become the parents that they didn't have.
There are a lot of posts out there with the close-up visual of Markwayne Mullin on January 6, but this is a better perspective.
Heβs not protecting others; heβs protecting himself and hiding. You can see plenty of people at the entry door, ready to take on the insurrectionists, but not Markwayne.
Let me guess, wealthy people who moved to Dubai to avoid paying taxes now want the countries they moved from to protect them?
Recurring pet peeve: Folks who say "Mano a mano" and think it means "man to man".
Their pathetic weakness is all over this post.

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

Three rules in FBI firearm training:
1. Always point your weapon downrange
2. Do not point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot
3. Donβt put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot
Guns are not for threatening compliance for unarmed people doing things you donβt like
BERNIE SANDERS: Do vaccines cause autism?
BHATTACHARYA: I do not believe that the measles vaccine causes autism
SANDERS: Nah. Uh uh. I didn't ask measles. Do vaccines cause autism?
BHATTACHARYA: I have not seen a study that suggests any single vaccine causes autism
FYI: Dems in the senate can't defund ICE. ICE is funded by the Big Ugly Bill. Shutting down DHS on this vote wouldn't touch ICE, but it would shut down FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, etc. Shutting down ICE requires taking back Congress in the midterms. Dismantling DHS requires the White House in 2028.
Pew Research Institute (2023):
β’ Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants
β’ Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants
β’ Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.
And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."
It's *not* about immigration.
Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"
Not a good look for ANY Dem to vote in favor of this travesty.
Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.
Well done, Donald-san.
Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic.
The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.
Seen on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Not surprising given that she's an immigrant and not white.
This regime is out of control.
Let us all stand with Chairman Powell.

FYI:
In 1916 the U.S. signed an agreement for control of St. Thomas, St. John & St. Croix, known as the βDanish West Indies,β in exchange for $25 million & a declaration that the U.S. would βnot object to the Danish Govt extending their political & economic interests to the whole of Greenland.
CBS became Fox News. Ugh.

Question: But the presidentβs statements that he believed the election was rife with fraudβthose are statements protected by the First Amendment, correct?
Smith: Absolutely not. If they are made to target a lawful government function and are made with knowing falsity, then no, they are not.
