That's why we have to prosecute every single one of these criminals and put them in jail for life. So maybe the next guy thinking of doing this has second thoughts.

Per the Bible, Jesus specifically identified himself with the poor, the people others turn away (and he suggested you likely go to hell if u do that), and those in prisons

One of the things that really trips a lot of analysts, including ones with real skin in the game, is that they refuse - absolutely refuse - to accept how stupid Trump very obviously is. He has no knowledge of anything, is incapable of learning, and only remembers the last thing to happen to him.

It's looking increasingly like these guys thought that if they could wreak more death and destruction than the other side then they would be respected as strong powerful men and they would "win" and that would make them big important heroes. Very possibly they had no rationale deeper than that.

At Largest ICE Detention Camp, Staff Bet on Detainee Suicides, AP Reports Camp East Montana has received several 911 calls in the span of five months about immigrants trying to harm themselves.

Staff at the nation’s largest Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility have placed bets on which detainee will be the next to die by suicide, according to new reporting from the Associated Press based on 911 calls and detainee accounts.

Bodycam video contradicts ICE claims in fatal shooting of U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez in Texas Video of last year's fatal shooting of Ruben Ray Martinez obtained by CBS News appears to contradict claims that Martinez was shot by an ICE agent because he "accelerated" and "intentionally ran over"...

DHS claimed "an ICE agent had fired 'defensive shots' into Martinez's vehicle after Martinez 'intentionally ran over' another agent."

But body cam video now "shows that Martinez's vehicle, a blue Ford Fusion, was stationary or going at a very low rate of speed when he was fatally shot."

there are a large number of ways in which the republican party is learning, apparently for the first time, that your adversary gets a vote

I’m a little confused because the economists on my timeline are like β€œoh yeah we’re facing a generational energy crisis because Trump is a madman who started a war he can’t control” while the politicians are like β€œit’s important to make clear we support the troops until it all blows over next week”

The American political class is utterly delusional, adrift in a dream of normality, unable to process the actual reality of events on the ground, where the US just launched a completely unprovoked war against a massive country, murdered its leadership, and demanded its conversion to a vassal state.

Don’t let the door hit you on the way out, Kristi Noem.

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.

But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

Americans: we live in a fallen stateβ€”embroiled by sin, cheating, lying, and evil. You cannot trust anyone, not even those who claim to know you best

It is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist.

He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.

Democrats MUST insist on a vote on an Authorization of Military Force (an AUMF) for Trump’s war in Iran.

My friend @kaine.senate.gov is leading the charge on a War Powers Resolution (WPR) that I support. But it's not a substitute for an AUMF.

1/ A 🧡on the difference. It's important.

Screenshot of an X post by Jonathan Karl reporting that President Trump said the U.S. had identified possible candidates to take over Iran, but they were killed in an initial attack. The quoted statement says the attack β€œknocked out most of the candidates” and that those previously considered are now dead.
