Oscar Belgal, 28, was shot in the neck by federal agents during a targeted operation in New York City while his 5-year-old son was in the car. Though the child was not physically injured, he will carry the trauma of this experience for a lifetime.

He’s so damn good at this. Jon Ossoff came out swinging against Mike Collins in the Georgia Senate debate. “It’s not just that you’ve hired half the Third Reich to staff your congressional office … It’s that you’re robbing your constituents to subsidize your donors.” 🔥

Yesterday afternoon, ICE agents — who did not present a warrant, and who appear to have been disguised as construction workers — fired 7 shots into a car with a 5-year-old child, hitting Oscar Belgal in the neck.

The United States is now officially allied with Vladimir Putin and Russia. We will fund Russia’s genocidal war machine in exchange for Putin helping Trump and the Republican Party in the midterms. One of the most shameful and disgusting days in the history of this Republic.
