RUSSIA TARGETED A BUS FULL OF CIVILIANS AND MULTIPLE APARTMENT COMPLEXES THIS WEEK ALONE. Maybe the ingrate is the guy who made the decision to fund that terrorism by purchasing oil in a last ditch attempt to boost his poll numbers?

Remember when they put out their side of the story on the shooting of Oscar Belgal that they will lie about anything and everything.
New York Daily News @nydailynews.com · 5d agoA Trump-appointed federal judge ripped federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents for giving false sworn testimony and records to justify the violent mistaken-identity arrests of two men in the Bronx, one of whom was a U.S. citizen.
Hard to overstate how much Hegseth's execution stream mirrors the U.S. military's traditional description of ISIS propaganda: broadcast killings designed to send a message, strike fear and create a social media spectacle. Will almost certainly be repurposed by online terror cells

So a bunch of guys in plainclothes surrounded a man in a car and shot him, then the government disappeared him and refuses to release any information about his condition or whereabouts

Again, you (& I) live in a country where there are concentration camps & people are being disappeared. We can argue about what exactly to call this particular form of partially autocratic political regime, but it’s not a full democracy.

“His words are dangerous and incite hostility” seems like it’d more applicable to Trump calling on Minnesotans to “fight back” against their Somali-American neighbors.

This would sink a presidency in any other era. I would bet most Americans will never hear it even happened.

Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.
The FBI and Justice officials closed the investigation, which a Justice Department appointee had called a “deep state” probe in early 2025.
