Just posting this because, as of yesterday, the US national debt surpassed $40 trillion for the first time. The GOP: the party of fiscal responsibility.

Bethany Christian Services, an adoption center with financial ties to Betsy DeVos, has taken 81 immigrant children who were forcibly separated from their parents. Most have had no contact with their families. They’re charging $700 per child per night. snopes.com/news/2018/06/26/b… – at Santa Cruz, CA

🔥 HELL YES! The Trump DOJ has just activated a NEVER before used ALIEN TERRORIST REMOVAL COURT This allows for the admin to RAPIDLY DEPORT illegals deemed terrorists (such as Tren de Aragua) AND their family members Much of the proceedings are done in classified settings, and the illegal CANNOT play the asylum card during these proceedings. The court was established by Congress in 1996 and just received its first EVER filing just days ago. It’s currently under seal. RAMP THIS UP, General Blanche! 🔥

The FDA is now saying the parasite found in Taylor Farms lettuce was a false positive. Interesting considering Bruce Taylor and his parent company, Taylor Fresh Foods, have contributed significantly to Donald Trump and Republican political committees. Could the FDA be lying?

This is why you never concede this stupid, cynical bullshit: It cements a narrative El-Sayed’s campaign is uniquely toxic when everyone knows every post El-Sayed makes is flooded with unhinged Islamophobia and racism. Racism that Stevens will literally never be asked about ever
In this deeply unhinged interview, Jake Tapper begins by insinuating that Abdul El-Sayed denouncing the $50 million being spent against him is comparable to Trump saying the 2020 election was stolen. Tapper follows this up by whining about AES criticizing Haley Stevens. 🙄 (1/2)

The U.S. sends $2 billion to the Kingdom of Jordan each year. Their King spent $100 million on luxury properties in Malibu, DC, & London. I offered an amendment to end the welfare. Thank the 5 who voted w/me. @RepChipRoy @RepNancyMace @RepBrecheen @RepEricBurlison @Rep_Davidson

Max Miller needs to resign.
Rep. Max Miller (R-Ohio) long maintained he wasn't impaired during a 2011 crash. But newly obtained toxicology reports reveal he had MDMA and Klonopin in his system. It's part of a 2,000-page trove of records we obtained about Miller, who is currently running for a third term. motherjones.com/politics/202…

After a months-long occupation, Minnesota is still recovering from a retribution campaign waged by the federal government. Now, Minnesota stands with Houston in demanding accountability for the fatal shooting of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. This bloodshed cannot be normalized.

Very happy to say it again. The Odyssey is an amazing film, and missing out on seeing it because you think it’s woke or whatever is cutting off your nose to spite your face. Your loss.

So what exactly does patriotism look like 250 years on from the founding of a nation? I think John Cena said it best. One thing it’s not for sure is to encourage division and tribalism. Racism, misogyny and homophobia sure as hell isn’t patriotism. It’s time to make America care again, only then can the land of the free deliver true freedom to its citizens. 🎥 TikTok - vm.tiktok.com/ZNRKCMJAU/

We don’t wanna see it, but we can’t normalize it, so we must see it.
🚨BREAKING: In Oklahoma City, ICE agents are seen chasing a young man through a parking lot, tasing him, then repeatedly smashing his head, and dragging his face across the concrete… while he isn’t resisting. In the video, after he falls to the ground, agents pile on top of him, as the agents smash his head into the concrete multiple times. While he’s lying on the ground… not fighting back, and making no visible attempt to get away… the agents drag his face across the pavement as they go to handcuff him. Then, with both agents already on top of him, and his arms being pulled behind his back, one agent slams his head into the concrete, again. Even after both agents have him pinned, and are kneeling on him, one agent continues forcing his head into the pavement. By the time they finally pull him to his feet, you can clearly see his face is injured. Law enforcement are allowed to use force, that’s objectively reasonable, under the circumstances. But, once someone is effectively under control, any additional force has to be justified by a legitimate safety need… not punishment, anger, or retaliation. If someone is no longer actively resisting, repeatedly driving their head into concrete… is difficult to justify as necessary force. This is exactly what happens when the government refuses to hold ICE agents accountable. The more ICE agents get away with excessive force, the more excessive force becomes their normal.

🚨BREAKING: In the Chicago suburbs, an ICE agent assaults a teenager for filming his vehicle, and pointing out that it illegally has no license plate. In the video, a U.S. citizen is peacefully filming an ICE vehicle, that is sitting in a parking lot. He walks to the back of the SUV to document that it has no license plate. That’s when the ICE agent jumps out, screaming, “Get away from my vehicle!” while aggressively charging toward the teenager. The teenager immediately backs away, but the ICE agent keeps walking at him, tries to trip the teenager , and continues yelling… even though neither of them are anywhere near the vehicle anymore. Filming government officials performing their duties, in public, is protected by the First Amendment. That protection doesn’t disappear just because the official doesn’t like being recorded. An officer also can’t lawfully use physical force simply because someone is filming them. Using force, to stop someone from recording, is a violation of that person’s constitutional rights. And let’s not ignore the reason the ICE agent got out of his car in the first place... Illinois law requires vehicles, driven on public roads, to display valid registration plates. This ICE vehicle is not following that law. So, if your first instinct, when someone records your conduct, is to assault them… you’re proving exactly why the public is recording in the first place.

What the flying fuck is this?
Esto es Kentucky (EEUU), una iglesia evangélica organizó una simulación de fusilamiento de inmigrantes delante de niños que acudieron a un campamento de verano. Puro amor al prójimo, excepto si eres negro, homosexual, inmigrante, comunista o musulmán, entonces toca fusilamiento.
