“ICE” as snatching people from churches now. Never forget they said this👇🏾

MAN AT CHURCH: “We don’t want this in our property.”

ICE: “The whole country is our property.”

No IDs shown, non-government out of state plates, basic tactical vests that just say police. Who are these men?

Double.

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.

Just before the previous clip, the skater kid was practically taunting the Border Patrol agents by dancing around their munitions shots.

TEXAS: Trump said ICE raided a “Tren De Aragua Gathering” — turns out it was a birthday party, with kids, and nobody had a criminal record. www.texastribune.org/2025/06/04/t...

My God, what are we doing????

Canada Wants to Kill 400 Ostriches. Kennedy and Dr. Oz Want to Save Them.

Breaking news from the can't-make-this-shit-up desk: The same folks who are certain that Fauci caused COVID by funding people to study bats in a Biosafety Level 4 facility now want to import 400 ostriches with the goddamn bird flu from Canada so they can live on Dr. Oz's ranch.

Protesters fill Capitol ahead of vote on bill to require ICE cooperation from Texas sheriffs Senate Bill 8 would require sheriffs in large Texas counties to request 287(g) agreements with ICE, where local officers help federal agents enforce immigration law.

Texas is a petrie dish for every festering authoritarian experiment, banning bodies, books, immigrants and truth.

It’s not governance, it’s a lab test for how much cruelty and control a state can pump into law before people break. #WakeUp

Texas House votes to redirect $70 million from Medicaid to crisis pregnancy program

The four house democrats who voted for the SAVE Act: Jared Golden (Maine), Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (Wash.), Henry Cuellar (Texas) and Ed Case (Hawaii).

I wonder if Glusenkamp Perez knows this bill would probably strip her right to vote since “Glusenkamp” isn’t on her birth certificate.

Who is this guy? This is nuts.

They’ve called armed federal officers to the scene. We aren’t dangerous. We are here to represent our people. To defend public education. This is an authoritarian regime. You cannot block members of Congress from entering the Department of Education.
