Then-DHS Secretary Kristi Noem doubled down, denouncing the incident as an act of “attempted murder” on law enforcement. Her agency published mugshots of all three men arrested in connection with the alleged assault, casting them as “violent criminals.”
None of it was true.
Today the United States wasted another #1B on an illegal war in Iran, money that could have been spent on funding health care or providing SNAP benefits or cancer research or academic scholarships for minorities. I could go on and on but I think you get my point. #endtheiranwarnow
Post from Drop Site News claiming Bellingcat geolocation confirms U.S. Tomahawk missiles struck a girls’ primary school in southern Iran, killing around 180 people, most of them children, with an embedded tweet describing footage of the strike.
Further confirmation of what Trump keeps denying and what Hegseth won't admit to. It was the U.S. that struck that girls’ school.
A new proposal from the Trump administration would take away one of the main safeguards federal employees have when they are fired. It would strip an independent review board of its power to hear appeals from terminated workers and block those employees from taking their cases to court.
Hey, Propaganda Barbie:
We aren’t moving on from people trafficking 10-year-old children and this administration covering it up.
Ever.
"We saw it happen. It was a violent insurrection for the purpose of trying to prevent the peaceful transfer of power after a legitimately certified election... That's what it was."

Textbook. If you are surprised, it is because this shit usually, at least not in the last 150 years, does not happen in the US. And the past is mild in comparison
Is anyone else mad at the fact that they have to pay federal taxes for bullshit they don't want? Like new ballrooms, the Gestapo, child torture, and human trafficking.
I wanna pay for education, social services, UBI, and universal health care! I'm so gotdamn mad right now, I need to lie down.

Please call the Senate they will vote very soon on whether to allow dangerous sulfide-ore copper mining on the edges of Minnesota’s Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. Tell them to vote NO on House Joint Resolution 140 (H.J. Res. 140).
This should concern us all. You cannot speak of freedom and liberty and then support this regime’s actions.

STEALING OUR MONEY!
tRumpstein ADDED $696 BILLION TO THE NATIONAL DEBT OVER THE PAST FOUR MONTHS ...
Borrowing $94 billion in January alone!!!
100% of Gross Domestic Product! The HIGHEST PERCENTAGE THE NATIONAL DEBT HAS EVER MADE UP OF GDP WAS 106%, and that was immediately following World War II
Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."
In the least shocking news ever, the DOJ illegally redacted Trump's name from manyEpstein files. [And of course that doesn't count the ones they just didn't release because they are about Trump]

PSA: Examples of a judicial warrant and an administrative warrant. ICE cannot enter your home with only an administrative warrant.
Anti-ICE protests held across U.S. on Saturday after fatal shooting. "People gathered in Minneapolis on Saturday night despite bitterly cold weather, while anti-ICE protests also took place elsewhere in the US, including in Austin, Seattle, New York and Los Angeles." www.bbc.com/news/article...
BREAKING: ICE agents pepper-spray peaceful demonstrators and journalists and deploy chemical irritants in Minneapolis.
Our partners @statuscoupnews.bsky.social captured the moment live on the ground as it happened.
PSA St. Paul 🚨🚨🚨
If they break down your door anyway (yes we see the videos)
Do not physically resist, even if the entry is unlawful. Resisting can escalate the situation and put you in danger or expose you to additional charges. Stay calm, keep your hands visible, and avoid sudden movements.
This is a community that cares deeply, spreads kindness, and seeks to build a better world.
Today we remembered the lives lost at the hands of ICE. Tomorrow we continue our work to peacefully build safer communities for all.
WARNING to ST. Paul: ICE is going door to door with weapons drawn.
RIP to one of the greatest American rock musicians of all time, Bob Weir. One more Saturday night, my friend.
Quick update on the political situation in the US: the government is led by a billionaire pedophile who believes he can murder American citizens with impunity.
Seems bad!
If you can’t see what’s wrong with this, congratulations. You’re part of the problem.

Has anyone else noticed that the EPSTEIN FILES are still being held back. Less than 1% have been released. Another blatant refusal to accept oversight from our pitifully weak congress. 🗽
🚨 Keep all protest demonstrations PEACEFUL.
Do not give any reason for 47 to grab more power than he already has.
Do not let him have any excuse to invoke the Insurrection Act to invoke martial law.
Beware!
Be peaceful. But do protest peacefully.
Repost!

The United States is no longer a country worthy of respect, it's a shithole full of hatred human beings fueled by a demented madman as President. I'm so disgusted and angry right now.
