I’m starting to get the sense that this president doesn’t know what the hell he’s doing
Breaking News: New video adds to evidence that a U.S. missile likely hit an Iranian school where 175 people, many of them children, were reportedly killed.
We also just murdered this guy’s parents, his wife, and his son so good luck getting a peace deal
BREAKING: Former South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol has been convicted of insurrection for declaring martial law in December 2024, and has been sentenced to life in prison.
Pay attention
She ain’t wrong
The punt bowl
They are planning to mess significantly with the mid-term elections. That seems exceptionally clear
The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”
That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.
Politicians gotta start calling for Miller to go. Right now.
Wishing Col Lockjaw a pleasant retirement with a honorary corner office somewhere…
Wake up. Make breakfast. Do email. Watch a murder. Go to a party for a 5 year old. Laugh with my daughter. See a different angle of that murder. Hear govt officials slander the victim. Play Barbies with my kid. Feed her dinner. Tear up at that victim reading last honors to a vet. Put kid to bed. USA
Powerful statement from the family of Alex Pretti, obtained by CNN:
"Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world..."
Poster: ICE Killed An American Today
In the spirt of minimalist political posters that have marked critical moments in US history.

The same people who pushed for states to be open carry are the ones saying having a gun on you (if that's even true) is grounds to be murdered by state agents.
Always has been.
Suddenly, the Second Amendment is an optional thing for the Republican Party.
Keep protesting. Keep documenting. But until the richest people in the US (top .5%) collectively decide this is bad for their bottom line, this tyranny will continue.
Cynical, but our sad reality. They’re the only ones with the immediate power to stop this. Pressure should be directed toward them.
One federal conspiracy to cover up a murder begets another.
My wife and I watched Armando Iannucci’s “Death of Stalin” over the weekend…
Yeah that movie is pretty much how it’s gonna go down.
New— An American citizen boarding flight from Boston to Lisbon just now told me after showing boarding pass, every passenger stopped on jetway by two ICE agents demanding to take their photo. When passenger asked why, ICE threatened to detain them. If they said no photo, couldn't board/TBD detained.
Protesting: important, essential.
But until the folks controlling the $$$ turn on him, this will continue.
There is an area in the ICE detention center in Minneapolis designated specifically for American citizens. Contemplate that for a minute.
The Heavenly Heave
We are all that pass
Goddamn, I’m sorry Buffalo
Do these maniacs think this is just a game of RISK??
Turns out it is much safer to attack the U.S. Capitol than it is to drive away from ICE. Who knew?
On the phone with them right now.
You can host the armed goons terrorizing our families, or you can host us.
