Unmarked lunatics with guns attack your car when your kid is with you— you drive off too. Anyone who say otherwise is a liar. They almost killed the kid. What the fuck are we doing? 😳🇺🇸

The way to stop this invasion of our country by our own government is to VOTE THEM ALL OUT. Every single one of our votes counts. Vote early. If you have the option, use a Drop Box to deliver your ballot received through the mail.

ProPublica article about Trump and his administration detaining over 500 US citizens. Our own gov't is attacking its citizens without due process and for no crimes. The violence is from the government agents. These actions are clearly purposeful and meant to terrorize. ICE are Trump's brownshirts.

The President of the United States daring Iran, with whom we are at war, to "take out" Los Angeles and San Diego. He is daring our enemy to kill about 13 million Americans (LA County has ~9.6 and San Diego County has ~3.3 million people). Where is Congress? They have the DUTY of oversight!

holy shit -- turns out Jack Smith went to a Hawkeyes game in Maryland but Schmitt's team is so reckless they concocted a conspiracy theory that Smith was actually in Atlanta seeing a Hawks game and colluding with Fani Willis. Klobuchar points out to Schmitt, "you have your teams wrong."

Klobuchar has Schmitt dead to rights: "The game in fact was in Maryland. For a senator to have false information & imply, based on confusion about name of a team, that you were in another city & somehow involved that day in what was happening in Georgia & call you a 'dirtbag' deserves an apology"

Ignored the other alleged rapists until public pressure. There need to be consequences. And don't forget the frat brothers who saw the rape real-time and did NOTHING - no calls to 911 or to police. This is how rape culture continues.

When historians look back on Trump's foreign policy in a century, I bet these are their verdict on his most famous policies: The support of Russia--the most evil. The pillaging of Venezuela--the most corrupt. The decision to go to war with Iran--the most incompetent.

Vote Blue. Abolish ICE. None of us is safe. Our gov't is attacking and terrorizing our cities. Thank you to the Democrat Oversight senators conducting the hearing yesterday. It isn't just those agents causing the terror and violence, it is that those in power seem to condone and even encourage it.
