Agreed. I said after the initial reports that I bet Pete’s War Dept. was underreporting the casualties and injuries. Cowardly warmongers.

Osoberry, yes? Oemleria cerasiformis. Loved nibbling on new leaves when I lived in Oregon. They get bitter quick, it always a welcome early sign of spring.

So he’s basically saying the Pentagon is being led by Israel, because U.S. actions are determined by what Israel is going to do. Got it.

This is going to be hard for some people to accept, but I think the US government is lying to us about the state of negotiations between itself and Iran.

Trump admin officials acknowledged in closed-door briefings with congressional staff that there was no intelligence suggesting Iran planned to attack U.S. forces first.

That undercuts one of the key arguments for the war made by senior admin officials.

Tell Congress: Demand AG Bondi release ALL of the Epstein files now Contact Congress today!

The Epstein cover-up is starting to crack, but Pam Bondi is still stonewalling. This is the biggest scandal in modern history, and it's being buried.

Congress: Do your job. Demand the full release NOW.

Who's with us? Tell your reps:

A former ICE attorney says he was given secret instructions that contradict written constitutional guidance. Not in the manual.Not in writing. Just… verbally.

ICE’s unchecked power won’t rein itself in. If we want real oversight, accountability, and an end to intimidation tactics that target vulnerable communities, we have to demand itβ€”loudly and publicly.

Screenshot of a CNN segment shared by Acyn. A split-screen shows commentator Lydia Moynihan on the left and Kevin O’Leary on the right during a heated exchange. The chyron reads, β€œObama: Dems need to avoid scolding and β€˜virtue-signaling.’” The post quotes O’Leary referencing China and concentration camps, and McGowan responding about West Virginia.

I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.

Nixon was forced to resign because he obstructed an investigation into a break-in. Mainstream media covered this scandal relentlessly. Now there's overwhelming evidence that Trump raped kids, yet he remains in the Oval Office and there's crickets from mainstream media. #TrumpResign #EpsteinFiles

Exclusive | Classified Whistleblower Complaint About Tulsi Gabbard Stalls Within Her Agency Congress hasn’t seen the complaint, which was filed eight months ago with the U.S. intelligence community watchdog’s office.

WSJ Exclusive: A U.S. intelligence official has alleged wrongdoing by Tulsi Gabbard in a whistleblower complaint that is so highly classified it has sparked months of wrangling over how to share it with Congress, according to U.S. officials and others familiar with the matter.

Why Are We Not Purging People in the Epstein Files from the American Government? Politics and sometimes culture from a rude liberal in blog form.

Is it just me, or is mainstream media drastically underplaying the Trump mentions in the latest release of #EpsteinFiles? Why so much focus on Musk and Lutnick but not Trump?

On what do you base your statement that it isn't going to happen? What is to prevent it? What has happened in the past year that would lead you to make that statement?

FWIW, declaring martial law does not stop elections.

Trump abuses his power when people believe he can. If enough of us erroneously believe it, it only gives him more power.

Seems like one of those issues that should greatly concern everyone regardless of their politics.

They (and we) will get nothing, because, as you say, ICE funding is already in place, so the Dems only leverage was to shut down everything else. Remember when they agreed to fund the government last time in exchange for a promise to negotiate health care subsidy extensions? How'd that work out?

Standard operating procedure for the Senate Democrats: Talk a good game, then surrender all leverage while getting nothing more than vague promises to negotiate over the one thing that matters. Unbelievable. And yet, not.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

Congress,with its abdication of any oversight responsibility regarding ICE, is a willing accomplice in today's murder of Alex Pretti. It must act immediately to prevent the next public execution. Stop. ICE. Now. Call, write, visit your electeds and demand action.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

Abolish ICE is now the moderate minimum position,

Prosecute ICE is where Dems should be at next.

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.
