Sanders: Saturday, millions of people are going to come out on a No Kings day. Speaker Johnson said this is a hate America rally because people are coming out expressing their concerns.. It’s not a hate America rally, it's a love America rally.

WTF! ICE agents are cosplaying as snipers now? Protesters are clashing with ICE outside the immigration processing facility in west suburban Broadview. Agents dragged two protesters, including one pulled inside the building. A chemical agent was reportedly sprayed.

White woman puts Mexican flag on her truck to waste ICE’s time.
Scooby
I am as white as a hotel towel, and the closest thing to Mexican I am was a single all inclusive resort stay in Cancun. I put a Mexican flag sticker on my old Tacoma abd was promptly pulled over by ICE in San Antonio. I'm happy to waste their time

Their big question was like, "why the sticker" I told them it was on the truck when I bought it-and they suggested I remove it. Obnoxious creatures.

We were told it couldn't happen here, and then we were told when it did happen here there would be a huge outcry, and instead, it's happening here and our institutions and elites are trying their best to downplay it and describe it in their most careful inside-voice tones.

This morning, Border Patrol agents hiding in Penske rental trucks raided a Home Depot in Los Angeles to grab day laborers standing around, which the Border Patrol's current CA lead Gregory Bovino called "Operation Trojan Horse." Raises very serious questions about violation of the court order.

Breaking:  DHS arrives in Penske trucks at a Home Depot in McArthur Park area of LA for early morning immigration enforcement.    The area was filled with migrants who scattered.  DHS says MS 13 has a chokehold on this area, which is one reason they’re carrying out the highly. Underneath is a screenshot of an 8 second video showing agents lifting the door of a rental truck from the inside as they get ready to jump and out and grab people.

Germany gave people €1,200/month no strings attached. They kept working, slept better, switched to better jobs, and even gave more to others. Turns out, when people aren’t drowning, they swim further. #UBI doesn’t kill ambition, it frees it.
