340 ppm November 21, 2023 (my Skeetday) Just hanging out being a law-talking guy and scrolling for political news and being an occasional reply guy.

Video of an ICE agent pulling a gun on a wife and mother, who is a US citizen born and raised in the area, near Bailey's Crossroads in Northern Virginia yesterday. Chillingly, they claimed she “almost ran them over” until she told them she had video proving that was a lie.

NBC's kristen welker was caught laughing it up with Stephen Miller. Stephen Miller who architected the family separation policy. Stephen Miller who pushed the Muslim travel ban. Stephen Miller who oversaw the killing of Americans by ICE agents. This is why independent media is crucial.

When the story of why humanity didn't stop climate change is written, it will feature front pages like this. Even as the skies blacken with climate change-induced wildfires, right wing media continue their relentless crusade against measures to tackle it.

The Times: Net zero risks blackouts. Below a photo of French wildfires.

yeah man, we’re all just dummies who don’t understand that you’re just judicial monks operating in a sphere of pure law [puts finger to ear] what’s this, clarence thomas gave another speech blaming progressives for hitler?

A brand new Super PAC — Elect Chicago Women — just dropped hundreds of thousands of dollars into this race. Why? Because it’s actually a front for AIPAC dark money. And they’re doing everything they can to buy my race:

My heart is breaking for this country and the people of Minnesota. ICE is the cudgel of a hateful, violent, corrupt executive branch of the federal government that cannot continue to exist. Call your Senators and tell them you’d rather see the government shut down than ICE funded.

After yesterday’s surrender, we’re launching the largest Democratic primary program that we’ve ever run. We will not back any Senate primary candidate unless they call for Schumer to step down as Minority Leader. If you’re as pissed as we are, join this campaign to rebuild the Democratic Party. 👇

Democratic leaders have failed us again. It's time to get new leaders.
