Screenshot of an X post by Acyn quoting CNN: β€œWe’re told that Pentagon briefers did make a stark acknowledgment, and that was that there was no indication that Iran was preparing to preemptively strike U.S. bases.” Below is a CNN split-screen segment showing a female anchor on the left and a male correspondent on the right.

Just like Venezuela does not send fentanyl to the U.S. and Iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction. It’s all been false flags to justify military aggression and war.

They beat a blind refugee who speaks no English for failing to obey police commands he could not understand. Then instead of apologizing, they charged him with possession of a β€œweapon”—HIS WALKING STICK. Then they dumped him miles from home without notifying anyone, after which he was found dead.

There are 3 parties in the USA:

1. Fascists
2. Corrupt Corporatists
3. Democratic Socialists

Which one are you?

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people.

But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

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.

Like every other Trump scandal that's too vulgar to meet daytime TV standards, I bet a lot of people won't even see this one.

A sitting president saying "fuck you" and flipping off an autoworker would've been considered a scandal in the pre-Trump era.

This Was Inevitable. And It Is Unforgivable. ICE Owns This. A warning ignored. A life lost. This cannot become routine.

Kristi Noem calling the victim’s actions β€œdomestic terrorism” is propaganda. Full stop. I served as a White House homeland security advisor. I know what that designation means & when it’s misused. A U.S. citizen is dead. She was a mom. This is what ICE impunity looks like. It cannot be normalized.

If Republicans allegedly care about babies and children, maybe they should promote the Covid vaccine that Trump himself has taken, right?

RIGHT?

Thank you to everyone who’s supported us.

And a special thank you to Illinois elected officials β€” including many of my opponents β€” who have condemned this political prosecution by the Trump administration:

My favorite thing about this Donald Trump / Jeffrey Epstein statue is that someone thought Donald is fit enough to stand on one leg.

I appreciate my friend & superstar @katiephang.bsky.social being so open & vulnerable about her decision to protect her voice and walk away from a lucrative MSNBC contract after her show was cancelled. It takes courage and integrity.

I hope Democrats remember this when they talk about "Civility" and keep bending the knee to bad faith Republicans who dispense cruelty.
