We’re at peak greed when the president brags about 24k gold décor for the White House while cutting commissaries, healthcare, and social nets. A palace of glitter for him, an empty pantry and hospital bill for you.

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it? If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say? Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

A beatdown in broad daylight was caught on video: Masked men in tactical vests grappled, tased, and piled onto a delivery worker. Pinning the worker face down on the pavement, agents tased him again and punched him repeatedly in the head.

Federal Agents Are the New Proud Boys
It used to be far-right groups who flooded cities wearing masks and military gear, looking for a fight. Now it’s anonymous federal agents who are violently attacking people on the street.

Deporting 4% of the population will not cause the wages of the native-born to rise, it will crash the economy, spark inflation, and raise unemployment.

Two days after the deadly Texas floods, FEMA struggled to answer calls from survivors to its disaster assistance line. Why? Because hundreds of employees who answered phones were fired after Kristi Noem didn't approve new contracts. "Efficiency."

THIS IS NOT A DRILL: ICE has detained hundreds of U.S. citizens by “mistake.” And now they want 100,000 beds and more planes to scale up? They’re not deporting “illegals”—they’re running a kidnapping ring with government contracts.
