Hey folks, whatβs an extra $0.40/gallon for gas when weβre helping Netanyahu stay out of jail and protecting Trump and his pedophile friends from being exposed? It seems like a small sacrifice to make for people who wouldnβt know when you die, let alone attend your funeral.
NOEM: I hope Miguel Lopez got the $2,600
SWALWELL: Do you think that makes up for not being with his family? It was a nonviolent crime
NOEM: Now that he's been deported he will never get the chance to come back
S: The president is also a convicted felon if you want to talk about criminal records
KLOBUCHAR: Alex Pretti's parents said what you said was one of the most hurtful things they could imagine. Do you want to say anything to Alex's parents?
NOEM: I did not call him a 'domestic terrorist.' I said it 'appeared to be an incident of'
KLOBUCHAR: I think the parents saw it for what it was
Is this bad? It seems bad.

So nothing has changed and Homan was just to put a new face on the cruelty, got it

I guess he just got lucky.
When I say this agency [ICE and CBP] CANβT be reformed this is why.
This canβt be repeated enough. Not only wonβt they investigate, they may never even tell us who did this.
Think about the message that sends to the next ones. Nobody is safe.
Naming someone is not doxxing. They arenβt undercover. They arenβt intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

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"

Watch this activist get arrested *mid-interview* for speaking out against U.S. action in Venezuela.
Among the many reasons you donβt kidnap a foreign head of state at gunpoint even if you have the capability, is that it sparks consequences you can neither control nor anticipate.
