The Trump administration is using an anti-KKK statute to prosecute two Black anti-ICE protesters for federal conspiracy to deprive civil rights. They are accused of terrorizing churchgoers with chants such as, "This is what community looks like." motherjones.com/politics/2026/…
Zohran is the Mayor now he needs to stop talking like he’s a poster. If he’s against illegal land sales, welp, he’s in charge of the NYPD and can direct them to enforce the law.
.@NYCMayor gets asked why he only condemned Hamas and not the illegal land sales that recruit settlers to move to the West Bank:
BOTHAM JEAN WAS HOME MINDING HIS OWN BUSINESS, WATCHING TV & EATING ICE CREAM WHEN HE WAS SHOT DEAD. BREONNA TAYLOR WAS HOME MINDING HER OWN BUSINESS SLEEPING IN HER OWN BED WHEN SHE WAS SHOT DEAD. ATATIANA JEFFERSON WAS HOME MINDING HER OWN BUSINESS WHEN SHE WAS SHOT DEAD.
You wanna know who doesn’t get shot? People who stay home and mind their own business.
This man is retiring, there are no repurcussions for his actions. He could literally activate the gaurd, demand the state police arrest agents, kick ICE out of state faciltites. This is the best he can muster. An investigation. Democrats are such a band of fucking losers.
I’ve seen the video. Don’t believe this propaganda machine. The state will ensure there is a full, fair, and expeditious investigation to ensure accountability and justice.
And if you gave them another 47 they’d still be Nazis
ICE agents aren't Disney villains. They're our neighbors, friends, and loved ones. These immigration and customs enforcement officers are red-blooded American patriots doing a tough job to keep our nation safe. Assaults against ICE are up 1,300%. I stand with @DHSgov.
So the end result of all that propaganda about Somalian daycares is ice shooting an unarmed American woman in the face.
It's important to be factual. Hamas did not kill "more than 1,100 Israelis." Israel killed some of those Israelis by enacting the Hannibal Directive, which says that Israel would rather kill its own people than have to negotiate for their release (by releasing some of the…
My statement on the two year anniversary of October 7, 2023.
ICE arrested Chicago Alderman Jessie Fuentes inside a hospital emergency room—simply for asking them to show a warrant for a man they detained.
Corporate leaders openly admit that they will side with authoritarianism over democracy, if democracy might produce policies they don’t like.
This mentality reveals everything that’s wrong with the current D leadership.
Mahmoud Khalil was thrown in prison for 3 months for protesting Gaza and the day ABC pulled Kimmel off the air (for two eps!) a judge upheld Khalil’s deportation. Rümeysa Öztürk was kidnapped off the street and imprisoned for writing an op-ed on Gaza. I feel like I’m going insane
CNN’s Jake Tapper on Jimmy Kimmel being suspended: “It was pretty much the most direct infringement by the government on free speech that I've seen in my lifetime.”
America is meant to be a bastion of free speech. Everybody across the political spectrum should be speaking out to stop what’s happening to Jimmy Kimmel. This is about protecting democracy. This must go to court.
