The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon. wapo.st/49Zqv1L

One of the best things I’ve read in a while:

Thanks Simon for this important piece! www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/the-courag...

Emily Heller, an eyewitness, is speaking out to set the record straight. Officers were screaming at Renee Nicole Good, “Move, move, move.” So she moved, and they shot her multiple times? Then Noem and Trump branded her a domestic terrorist. Does everyone see how absolutely insane that sounds?

Under Biden, the IRS launched a program for people to file their taxes FOR FREE (finally!) Well, Trump ended it because TurboTax donated $1 million to him. This White House is just one big grift while the rest of us pay more for everything.

The US Army was telling active duty soldiers to get food from food banks in Germany. They removed it. WE aren't socialist, but certainly willing to mooch off other nations socialist programs. PATHETIC. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #Ohio #Military #Veteran #UnitedStates #FoodSecurityForAll #Shutdown2025

WOW... JUST WOW... In order to justify invoking the insurrection act in Portland, Oregon, trump faked a riot with professional videographers, the military and hired extras. Sen. Jeffrey Merkley tells us what happened :

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative

It's almost like they're trying to tell us something... ht: @magacultslayer.bsky.social

Moody’s chief economist estimates that 22 states are already in or at high risk of a recession, and only 16 are expanding. Notably, California and New York are “treading water”.

"The Church cannot be silent." "Pope Leo XIV’s eyes grew misty Wednesday as an El Paso delegation led by Bishop Mark Seitz presented him letters and a video that captured the fears and anxieties of people facing mass deportation in the United States..."

Sure to NOT produce any media hand wringing. Nope, constant attacks on the folks on the left ARE NOT the result of a President calling us scum and terrorists, or any other violent rhetoric from the right. All is nominal.

"To enforce President Trump's immigration crackdown" my ass. If you think this is about illegal immigration rather than a concerted effort to establish control over law enforcement and create a military presence in DC so as to hold on to power after losing an election, think again. Gift link.

“‘An inexperienced kid just out of law school who says “Trump is the constitution” is exactly the kind of political hack you’d expect Trump to put in charge of subverting protections for federal employees and whistleblowers,’ the conservative lawyer George Conway … told me.”
