I see no issues with ICE agents being given gloves that can electrocute people. Absolutely nothing bad will come from this, and these torture gloves will certainly never be misused. So happy our country is spending money on shit like this instead of healthcare. ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸

“I don’t know if he really believes that or it’s part of his political messaging” = he’s a liar who will say anything to get what he wants.

Sen. John Kennedy on Trump's blatant reflecting pool lies: "The president says it was caused by vandals. I don't know if he really believes that or it's part of his political messaging or he's just thinking out loud ... he grows anxious when he has an unexpressed thought."

New idea - replace ICE agents firearms with squirt guns.

Tom Homan: "It all go backs to the Dems ... there's still gonna be more bloodshed unless they shut their mouth and let ICE enforce the laws that they enacted."

It’s so frustrating that the dishwasher trap would be so much easier to clean if you could just send it through the dishwasher.

This is bad. Everyone should have access to healthy and quality food. - BUT- The underlying issue of food deserts will mean the recipients most in need of food assistance will get less food, not healthier food.

Brooke Rollins: "Until today, any retailer accepting the food stamp had to stock 12 or more 'nutritious' foods. Real food. Well, today, we're more than doubling that to 28, but we're also closing the loophole. You could stock jelly as a fruit and jerky as a real protein. All that changes today."

Do you think doctors are concerned about him giving all the test answers to congress?

Trump: "No president has ever taken a cognitive test except me. I've taken three of them. One in the first administration. They're hard. The first question is easy. You have a lion, a bear, an alligator, and a squirrel. 'Which is the squirrel?'"

May the Fourth be with you* *Reminding you not to consent to searches of your person or property when interacting with cops.

Brought to you by the man who threatened actual genocide about a week ago.

Trump: "We suspended all refugee resettlement, except for prosecuted South Africans. There's a genocide. They kill people if they're white."

Does anyone have that combat simulator and can they run the Swiss Guard vs the US Secret Service? Asking for purely hypothetical reasons.

I think the theme of our current world is just how dumb everything is. Things are so bad but for the most stupid reasons anyone could imagine. If it wasn’t impacting our daily lives so profoundly it would be hilarious.

I don’t know what’s worse - the fact that it’s a real possibility we may utilize nuclear weapons or the fact that people are betting on it.

Of course we don’t want ICE carry out their “enforcement actions”. What the fuck do you think all this has been about?

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Ron Johnson: "Why would they to remove their masks? Because they want these officers exposed, they want them afraid, they don't want to carry out their enforcement actions. They want judicial warrants, which would completely neuter ICE's ability to apprehend"

Anyone else remember when the GOP was the party of fiscal conservatism?

Stephen Semler@stephensemler.bsky.social

ICE’s pending $30 billion budget exceeds the military spending of nearly every country, including Canada, Brazil, Mexico, and Iran. ICE + CBP funding for 2026 would total $66 billion, higher than all but 7 militaries worldwide.

If this isn’t a Nazi Regime, when why are all the self-described Nazis so excited about it?

It's Going Down@igd.bsky.social

Neo-Nazi Jake Lang gives Hitler salute while supporting violent ICE agents and riot police in #Minneapolis. Yesterday, Lang was arrested on a felony charge, after destroying an anti-ICE installation put up by military veterans at the Minnesota capital.

Side note that is not important to the story - the dude on the right does not have his firearm properly secured. If he had to walk briskly or (God forbid) run it would fall out.

And their commander is probably from Justice Dept.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

You’d think that for all the dues I’m paying to Antifa Global™️ he would be able to afford a house instead of an apartment. (For the Feds watching, this is utter sarcasm, and you don’t understand anti-fascism)

Ken Klippenstein@kenklippenstein.bsky.social

🚨 Documents leaked to me reveal a federal watchlist of American protesters suspected of being Antifa - including its supposed leader. One Department of Homeland Security document says a 29-year-old resident of Portland "is the leader of Antifa": www.kenklippenstein.com/p/feds-ident...

Love me, or else.

Sen. Eric Schmitt: "Through their rhetoric we're already seen tragedies. We're gonna see more of them unless they pump the brakes on this stuff."

Every Republican is taking a strong stance that “I don’t want anyone to be killed by law enforcement… but what do you expect us to do? Not let law enforcement kill people?”

Say it with me now: Government agents don’t have an expectation of privacy while in the course of their official duties

Radley Balko@radleybalko.bsky.social

Federal agents cornered Marimar Martinez, shot her several times, boasted about it, arrested her, lied about her to the public and in the police report, and falsely charged her with assaulting them. Now the government wants to keep evidence of their lies secret to protect these agents' "privacy."

ICE has guns. Citizens have whistles and our voices Please tell me which is more dangerous?

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Homan: "I call upon those officials to stand shoulder to shoulder with us to tone down the dangerous rhetoric and condemn all unlawful acts against law enforcement in the community"

Obstruction is a physical act. Being present is not obstruction.

McLaughlin: "You have the right to practice your First Amendment, of course, and your Second Amendment rights. But ... "

This man wouldn’t know what “morality” meant if it was the title of the book he sits on to see over the steering wheel.

FactPost@factpostnews.bsky.social

Q: Do you have any moral or ethical qualms about detaining a five-year-old on his way back from preschool? Border Patrol Chief Bovino: I've got no qualms about making America a safer place

I hope the ICE Agents involved know they sold their souls for a $50k signing bonus. And I hope this decision haunts them for the rest of their lives.

They ran simulations… because god forbid they go into a grocery store with the rest of the poors.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Brooke Rollins is still at it! "We had run almost 1,000 simulations, and between $3 and $4 is a fair number if you can have access to that food. I just saw new numbers that were run: a full day, meaning 3 full square meals and a snack, is about $15.64."

Can we have a short detainment for Bovino?

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Homan: "Let's make it clear: ICE can detain a US citizen if they have probable cause that this person may have committed a crime. A short detainment and questioning, all you need is reasonable suspicion."

“All we want to do is terrorize their city and kidnap their neighbors, and they said mean things to me. Obviously they’re the problem”

Matt Novak@paleofuture.bsky.social

"We've seen over a thousand percent increase in assaults on ICE officers, 8,000 verbal assaults on them...."

BRENNAN: Tell me about the officer, Jonathan Ross KRISTI NOEM: Don't say his name! I mean, for heaven's sake, we shouldn't have people continue to dox law enforcement BRENNAN: His name is public NOEM: I know, but that doesn't mean it should continue to be said
