Despicable

Russia just attacked Kyiv and region with ~12 missiles in about 15 minutes, it’s almost a missile per minute , with only 1 Zirkon missile costing ~$10 mln . Imagine how much good and beautiful all these money could bring.
Instead, Russia is choosing to bomb my home city

4/ The GOP’s “Save America Act” wld force all 50 states to submit their voter rolls to the DHS’s objectively suspect voter purge system while simultaneously making it very difficult to re-register. Remember the 2000 presidential election in Florida? This wld be 50X worse.

This is exactly how Putin became one of the wealthiest men in the world. He got a cut of every major industry. That's exactly what is going on here.

Tweet by Kyle Griffin reporting that the Trump administration has lifted sanctions on Russian oil currently at sea, allowing it to be shipped to buyers worldwide as energy prices surge during the Iran conflict. The post includes a New York Times link and an image of a U.S. official walking outside the White House with security personnel.

ICE agents reveal daily arrest quotas and surveillance app in rare court testimony Under oath, officers said they were told to make eight arrests a day and given special tech to help choose ‘targets’

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

Hegseth: "We will keep pushing, keep advancing. No quarter, no mercy for our enemies."

No quarter is the refusal to take prisoners and instead just execute everyone. It's been considered a war crime for over a century.

“I am innocent,” Bryan Betancur proclaims as he walks out of court in DC, wearing his newly-ordered GPS monitor. “Feminism is a cancer.”

Betancur then walked toward the Archives metro station. Once off camera, he yelled at me about my shoes — a common occurrence given his foot fetish.

Sen. John Cornyn flips on the filibuster to pass SAVE America Act as Trump weighs endorsement Cornyn, who spent years defending the filibuster, is locked in a competitive GOP runoff in Texas against Ken Paxton, who has aligned with Trump on the issue.

After Cornyn and Paxton were forced into a runoff, I said we should watch just how far Senator Cornyn is willing to put his head up trump's ass for his endorsement. Now he's flipping on the filibuster to pass the SAVE Act and disenfranchise millions of voters. www.nbcnews.com/politics/ele...

After a series of fatal strikes involving civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan, Congress directed the Pentagon to reduce civilian casualties as part of a 2019 law. During the Biden administration, the Defense Department created the Civilian Harm Mitigation and Response initiative.

The civilian mitigation teams – cut by 90% by Hegseth – work with military commanders on target planning, and making sure that targets are actually military sites. The teams help come up with "no strike" lists, including religious and cultural sites and schools

I knew that the Department of War shot a missile into a school & killed 175 civilians, mostly children.

This is learned today:

Secretary of War Hegseth had cut the teams assigned to prevent such tragedies by 90%.

Trump continues to threaten to cut off trade with Spain to “punish” them.

But the U.S. runs a $4.8 billion trade SURPLUS with Spain. We are winning that deal. And Spain is in the EU, so you can’t just target Spain alone.

This isn’t America First, it’s America Confused.

ICE detainee in Arizona dies after not receiving medical attention for severe tooth pain Emmanuel Damas, a Haitian asylum seeker, was being held at the Florence correctional center before he died

A Haitian asylum seeker detained by ICE died after being refused timely medical attention for a severe toothache.

At least 40 people have died in ICE custody since Trump took office — a two-decade high.

The monstrous cruelty of Trump's police state knows no bounds.

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

Iran, which is being beat to HELL, has apologized and surrendered to its Middle East neighbors, and promised that it will not shoot at them anymore. This promise was only made because of the relentless U.S. and Israeli attack. They were looking to take over and rule the Middle East. It is the first time that Iran has ever lost, in thousands of years, to surrounding Middle Eastern Countries. They have said,
"Thank you President Trump." I have said,
"You're welcome!" Iran is no longer the "Bully of the Middle East," they are, instead, "THE LOSER OF THE MIDDLE EAST," and will be for many decades until they surrender or, more likely, completely collapse! Today Iran will be hit very hard! Under serious consideration for complete destruction and certain death, because of Iran's bad behavior, are areas and groups of people that were not considered for targeting up until this moment in time. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J.

Worms in food, poor medical care, lights on 24/7: Families tell of life in Texas detention center When ICE officers in Minneapolis detained a 5-year-old boy and his father last month and sent them to a Texas detention center, many Americans were alarmed.

We also already know that many children in Texas are being detained in crowded, unsanitary conditions and denied proper medical care and food. Not only is this leaving young people physically worse off, it’s putting them in mental distress too. apnews.com/article/chil...

ICE detains reporter Estefany Rodríguez in Nashville - Nashville Banner Reporter Estefany Rodríguez, detained by ICE with no arrest warrant, may face deportation. Her attorneys seek immediate review of the legality of her case.

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.

They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

Lawmakers and Universities Push Back on Loan Caps Politicians from both sides of the aisle sharply criticized the Education Department’s narrow interpretation of the legislation, which limits the number of students with access to large federal loans.

By deprofessionalizing degrees & career paths, the Trump administration is making it harder for students to become nurses, therapists, and workers who serve communities in the future. We need to invest in affordable education. www.insidehighered.com/news/governm...
