ICE said Antonio Moreida jumped onto the hood of their vehicle.
Now a local police investigation concludes that an ICE agent struck him with his SUV.
The routine lying by ICE is the result of the example set by leadership of the Department of Homeland Security.

On April 5, 1977, people with disabilities occupied government buildings across the country with simple demands: access to education, jobs, and public spaces.
It has been fifty years since the Section 504 sit-ins, but the fight for those with disabilities continues.

and all Republican women
VOTE OUT ALL REPUBLICANS whatever their age, sex or colour!
If you think a test for dementia is an IQ test, you have dementia.
If you don't realize you have been given a test for dementia because your physician suspects you have dementia, you have dementia.

Similarly, crooked Donald Trump redirected $20 million in taxpayer funds from the Department of Homeland Security and U.S. Customs and Border Protection to pay for campaign-style television and streaming advertisements promoting him ahead of the midterm elections.
Ron and Cassie DeSantis: These two crooks stole $10 million from a settlement with a charity, wired it to Cassie’s fake “charity,” laundered it through two puppet organizations, and then used it for political ads in an election year. They should be in jail.
Peggy Flanagan isn't responsible for any fraud in Minnesota.

Let’s review:

This is the follow-up to the Susan Collins story. Interestingly, Lindsey Graham got $100K and a $5,000 bottle of Bourbon. Clyburn got $20K and a $100 fruit basket to match Graham's language in the House budget. Clyburn had part of his donation go to the University of South Carolina.
NEW: Lindsay Graham and Jim Clyburn were under FBI investigation for bribery.
Then Trump dismantled the DOJ & FBI public corruption units.
The investigation died.

Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia.
I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.
