Wait, Wait...... Venezuela and ICE.....

It was reported this morning that Trump wants the American people to use their tax dollars to run Venezuela for years, yet the GOP refuses to help 24 million with their healthcare? See anything wrong there? What happened to America first? The con game continues....

Then, regarding the poor lady, now deceased in Minneapolis unnecessarily? Has anyone asked why ICE's training didn't cover (especially in this case) to disable the vehicle, over killing the driver? Why didn't they shoot out the tires? The owners of those 5 bullets should pay for this with their lives. It was clearly murder. Yep, American's are killing Americans right out in the open. This was horrendous. Then to find out that Noem and Trump lied about the entire situation to cover their asses. Isn't that a crime?

Trump and his admin are by far the worst this country has ever seen. IMPEACH NOW!!!!

Haven't we had enough?

The Gestapo who are on Krasnov's payroll are doing exactly what Krasnov wants them to do. It is foolish to ask the question why these people aren't better trained.

Impeach now is a distraction and a waste of time.

Sorry, just woke up and not quite altogether.

As for impeachment, you're probably right. What do you suggest? We have to get these morons out of power. They are destroying this country.

The Big Ugly Death Bill has allocated 100 million dollars to hire more Gestapo.

My suggestion was for Democrats back in March to not vote for the CR until we had guaranteed protection for our social safety net.

The time to rein in the Gestapo was back in March but Chuck Schumer kneecapped the vast majority of Congressional Democrats, the Big Ugly Death Bill is law now and harder to change.

We need to keep protesting. I donate to Indivisible and the ACLU. Indivisible is the main group that has been organizing protests across the country. I am of the opinion that it is up to us, the people to throw out the billionaires, we are way ahead of the politicians, they are slowly beginning to catch up.

David Hogg had the right idea, but it got him fired.

Afghanistan and orders her to move then immediately grabs the door handle so he can drag her out onto the ground.
You can see she was turning her wheels to the right to escape. Then immediately Noem and that POS come out with this
lie anyone can see, she tried to run officers down that were trying to get a car out of the snow. Then claims that POS thug had
to be treated for his injuries. They refuse to let a doctor help the women and had the road blocked so EMTs had to walk to the
scene.

When I was a little boy I watched Groucho Marx, he had a game show on TV. One day he said, "Who are you going to believe, me, or your lying eyes." I laughed because I thought it was a joke, it's no joke today.
