This is correct. The government’s assault on Somalis and Somali Americans is perverse and wicked even for this gang

"Goading Americans to watch it will be part of the pleasure for (Trump and Hegseth). Don’t give them that satisfaction. We’ve already witnessed two public executions this year-of Renee Good and Alex Pretti-and sadly they were not alone, as ICE has been acting more like ISIS than...law enforcement."

Bottom line, folks: parties evolve, but ideology remains consistent. The 19th-century Southern Democrats were conservative white supremacists. Today, those exact ideological views align with the far-right, not modern liberalism. This cannot be denied. I'm done.🎤🔚 www.thebulwark.com/p/gop-republ...

Senator Tammy Duckworth: "Putin told Iran the locations of our warships. Today, Trump rewarded him by lifting sanctions and allowing American dollars to fuel Russia’s war machine. Our troops are in harm’s way, and the President cut a deal with the adversary putting a target on their backs."

I think everyone is misreading the Diesel deal, according Trump too much agency. Putin got Trump to say something INSANELY stupid, no doubt in hopes of all the bribes on the table. This will solve none of the problems Trump caused the US. en.kremlin.ru/events/presi...
Statement by President of Russia Vladimir Putin
October 9, 202622:50
During the October 9 telephone conversation with US President Donald Trump, considerable focus was on prospects for settling the Ukraine crisis, while the situation surrounding Iran and various aspects of bilateral relations were touched upon as well.

When discussing the state of affairs in the global energy market, the Russian side confirmed its willingness to supply oil and petroleum products to the US market and global markets at large. I am convinced this will have a positive impact on the entire global economy.

An agreement was reaffirmed to maintain personal contacts between the presidents of the two countries and to continue cooperation across their respective administrations, security services, and agencies.

So I edited this story. And I wanna share on thought on language, & telling the truth We talked about: the "government is lying to you" It may sound saucy. It may sound like opinion But it's just true And if something is true then you should just say it, clearly That's just good journalism

🚨URGENT: When a president values himself more than the people he is supposed to serve, he needs to go. When a president wishes harm on those people he is supposed to serve, then sure as I am typing this, he is a traitor to his country and needs to be locked away for the rest of his miserable life.

Good. There needs to be consequences for persecuting an innocent man all because the president is a psychotic child with an enormous ego, who would take away someone's freedom to cover up his own mistakes.

The 2020 election has been relentlessly studied by our most experienced experts and by our most craven partisan hacks for 6y now, and every examination has wound up demonstrating the integrity of Biden’s victory in that election and the malignity of Trump’s obsession with undermining it.
