www.nytimes.com/interactive/... Every American needs to see this. #ICE shot and killed a restrained man and then tried to tell us he was trying to kill them. Letting them get away with it would make us no better than the dictatorships we claim to oppose around the world. We must resist.

Timeline: How the Shooting of Alex Jeffrey Pretti Unfolded
A moment-by-moment analysis of video from the scene shows that Mr. Pretti was already restrained when fatal shots were fired, which appears to contradict the federal government’s account of the event.

Navarro says it plainly like few others can.
Screenshot of a post on X by Marco Foster (@MarcoFoster_) quoting Ana Navarro calling it “ultimate hypocrisy,” contrasting January 6 insurrectionists being treated as patriots and pardoned with a woman who was unarmed and driving away being shot. Below the quote is a video still from The View showing Ana Navarro seated and speaking, wearing a light blue striped blouse, with a blurred outdoor scene behind her and a small timestamp “0:17” on the video thumbnail.

Marjorie Taylor Greene once claimed that "they" were using space lasers to start forest fires. #Trump still supported her. Now she's calling for the release of the #Epstein files and he calls her too wacky to support. How bad is the information about him in those files?

The basis for #tariffs on #Canada is Trump's claim that the flow of fentanyl across the border threatens American security. Last year 19 kilograms of fentanyl was intercepted on the US-Canada border. 9600 kilograms was intercepted on the US-Mexico border. Whatever his real motivation is, he's lying.

Even though #Trump claims he doesn't pay attention to the stock market when deciding on his #tariffs he announced them after the market closed. No doubt trying to avoid headlines all day about how he caused the market to #crash. He doesn't understand how tariffs work and he doesn't have a plan.

As #DOGE claims they're working to cut spending but actually just attack anyone who won't swear allegiance to #Trump it's worth noting that Trump has already spent $10 million of taxpayer money golfing in about a month. Mostly at his own resorts too, so he's paying himself to golf with our money.

If Trump is serious about imposing and end to the war on #Ukraine without their input in the negotiations, and then removing sanctions from #Russia as well, we should all pay attention to companies that reopen business in Russia and boycott and call them out publicly.
