Walz: "Do you have no decency? We have someone dead in their car for no reason whatsoever. I don't want to be right about this, but I said if they do this they're gonna create a chaotic situation where someone innocent is gonna get killed. And they did it."

Do not believe what DHS has to say about this when they put out an official statement. They have been provable liars in similar situations.

DHS called the murdered woman a terroristโ€ฆso apparently libel isnโ€™t really a thing anymore.

But murder absolutely is. Letโ€™s keep our eyes on the video evidence of a punkass proud boy in a mask shooting an unarmed woman in the face because she wouldnโ€™t let them abuse her. Then we can debate words.

A masked murdering thug who following the illegal shooting: 1. did not render medical aid 2. actively BLOCKED a doctor and other first responders from rendering medical aid, and 3. left the scene of the shooting before local law enforcement gave him leave to do so

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.

She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

Her vehicle's right front panel cleared the ICE agent who didn't open fire until after he was at the side of her vehicle. He used deadly force on a fleeing individual, which is against DHS policy. This is murder. He needs to be arrested.

Screaming, armed, masked men approaching your car and trying to open your door is a worse case scenario for women.

Hegseth is a small man and Mark Kelly outranks him. Not just in the military, but as a person. Thatโ€™s what this is about.

Since his appointment, RFK Jr. has pursued a brutal vision of American health that several experts liken to a sort of eugenics. Kennedy has made it clear that certain deaths are acceptable or even preferable to a world where every child is vaccinated.

Mass deportations donโ€™t protect working peopleโ€”they weaken labor standards, silence organizing and empower bad employers.

An attack on immigrant workers is an attack on ALL workers. @jimmy-iupat.bsky.social

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

America's most notorious child rapist, Jeffrey Epstein, said this man was the worst person he'd ever met. Let that sink in.

It's ONLY been 65 years since six year old Ruby Bridges walked through the halls of William Frantz Elementary as the first Black child to attend an all white school. Met with mobs and hate, her bravery and courage helped change the course of history for this nation.

DT bragged about grabbing pussies and walking in on teenage contestants in their dressing rooms. He said you have to treat woman like shit and that heโ€™d date his daughter. Heโ€™s been accused of sexual assault 27 times. And he still got elected. So whatโ€™s the Epstein files must be very very very bad.

Oh. Was it the part where Halligan said the jurors couldnโ€™t leave unless they returned an indictment? (I have no proof that happened. Just speculating. But she kept them until 7 PM and they indicted on a two-vote margin.)

Senator in 2010 deposition: 13-year-olds can consent to sex U.S. Sen. James Lankford of Oklahoma testified as part of a civil case into an alleged sexual assault at the Baptist church camp he oversaw that he believed a 13-year-old can consent to sex.

You would think that the 8 GOP Senators who are SO OUTRAGED that Jack Smith subpoenaed their phone records that they want $1 million compensation would bring him in to testify IN A PUBLIC HEARING to explain why he did this. But no, they donโ€™t want to do that. I wonder why?
