“If you don’t like public executions just don’t watch it” says the crowd trying to ban drag shows

Today DHS assassinated a VA nurse in the street, Bondi is attempting to extort voter files, and half the country is bracing on the eve of a potentially crippling ice storm with FEMA gutted.
So what is the President up to? Having a movie night at the White House.
He’s unfit.
On tonight’s White House agenda:
Trump and guests will get a private screening of MELANIA, the documentary about the First Lady, @THR reports.
Attendees include Apple CEO Tim Cook, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy, Mike Tyson, per the article.

This is Alex Pretti, a VA ICU nurse, honoring a veteran he cared for at a VA hospital.
The son of the deceased veteran just posted this video on Facebook with the following message:
“RIP Alex Pretti,
he was my Dads ICU nurse, he read my dad’s final salute at the VA after he passed away. Never wanted to share this video but his speech is very on point. Also my Fathers final words to me was continue to fight the good fight. He would be honored in Alex’ sacrifice, and ashamed of this current administration. In my Dads words I encourage you all to continue to ‘fight the good fight’”

As insane as this sounds, it’s true: Pam Bondi sent Minnesota officials a letter today saying ICE would leave the state if Minnesota turns over its voter files to the Trump Administration.
They’re openly using state violence as a bargaining chip to seize election infrastructure.

It doesn’t make you a lib to be disgusted to see a man get murdered for practicing his first and second amendment rights. Blindly defending ICE because Trump and his administration tells you to makes you the opposite of a patriot and is as anti-American as it gets.
This sentiment from the First Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California is dangerous and wrong.
Responsible public voices should be awaiting a full investigation, not making generalizations and demonizing law-abiding citizens.
If you approach law enforcement with a gun, there is a high likelihood they will be legally justified in shooting you.
Don’t do it!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The U.S. Constitution (particularly the 2nd, 4th, and 14th amendments) prohibit officers from shooting citizens merely for possessing a weapon that is not an “imminent threat”. This was reaffirmed in Graham v Connor, which says force must be reasonable.

They told us Democrats would turn America into a show-your-papers society.
They told us Democrats would strip away the Second Amendment.
They told us Democrats would jail us for what we say.
They told us Democrats would drag us into more foreign wars.
They told us Democrats would cover up a child sex trafficking ring.
And then Republicans took power and decided to do all of it themselves.

Renee Good’s killer: 10 year ICE officer
Alex Pretti’s killer: 8 year Border Patrol officer
We can’t pretend this is all the result of Trump’s sloppy training. The entire agencies are rotten to the core.

Laura Gillen (N.Y.)

VOTE THEM OUT!!!

You clearly have lost control of your caucus. Given seven of them voted to give ice even more funding. Resign and let someone else lead.

Tricia McLaughlin, the mouthpiece of DHS, posted a private jet photo to her Instagram. It was recently revealed that her husband’s company won a subcontract on a non-competed $220M contract from DHS, in a deal described by experts as “corrupt” and “worthy of an investigation.”
Trumpers get their feelings hurt, respond, then block because they love remaining in their echo chambers.

There is no opposition party in the United States government.
There is no working class party in the United States government.
There is simply one dictatorship of capitalism with two fascist wings.
