  1. The Trump administration continues to lie about it? Shocker! But you buy it hook line and sinker. The Steele dossier was NOT the foundation of the FBI investigation. They didn't get the Steele dossier until months later. The FBI was already to investigating because Papadopoulos was boasting about his Russia connections having dirt on Hillary. And yes, the collusion is documented and undeniable. Trump's campaign chair was feeding a known Russian agent sensitive internal campaign polling and strategy. Over and over again through elaborately contrived secret channels. Information which Kilimnik passed to Russian intelligence. The same agency actively (again, well documented) engaged in an influence campaign against American voters. All of that is known. The collusion above is entirely documented in congressional reports. What they were unable to establish was chargeable criminal conspiracy. The communication tracks were so thoroughly covered they couldn't verify that Manafort knew how his information would be used. But let's get real, Manafort is corrupt and traitorous, but he's not stupid. And he certainly wasn't going to take a deal when Trump was advertising a pardon.
  2. ICE has never needed masks before because they were a legitimate law enforcement agency rather than a paramilitary goon squad. Nobody was interested in doxxing agents because the agents weren't engaged in this abhorrent behavior. The conversation probably went approximately like this: Trumpco: We want to create a pervasive terror among the immigrant community so they GTFO. To make that happen, we're going to ask you to do some truly awful shit. ICE: Okay, but won't people hate us? Trumpco: Probably, but we're going to give you masks so nobody can see who you are. ICE: Like criminals? Trumpco: Yeah, same rationale. So you don't have to be accountable to the public for perpetrating the aforementioned awful shit. It's not that doxxing wasn't a possibility before. They simply knew that they were going to start crossing lines--both legally and in terms of human decency. They prepared accordingly.
  3. They arrested them like we always have. Not with masked goon squads roaming the streets like the JV version of Kristallnacht.
  4. Shameless liar. He did not use anything except his legal right to film the thugs from ICE--an agency with an explicit mission to sew terror under Trump.
  5. That's complete bullshit. He could have attacked ICE. Instead he just tried to shield the woman they assaulted. Then they sprayed him, took him down, beat him, removed his holstered weapon and shot him in the back. That's all on video, no imagination required.
  6. Again, wildly creative imagination you've got. You post video of ICE violently shoving a woman who was filming, and then pretend that she assaulted them. Jeebus.
  7. You are a shameless liar regarding Russian collusion, which was definitively established. It's recorded history. Undeniable. Lemon is a journalist with a first amendment right to cover those events. He will not be convicted of anything. Some of the others may be, depending on what they actually did. It's an embarrassing projection for you, of all people, to try to call anyone else a cultist. 🤣
  8. Unequal behavior--particularly bad behavior--begets unequal coverage. That's normal. And you know full well that hardly anyone is fussy about deportations. If Trump were doing it in a normal fashion like past presidents, he'd get the same reaction. But instead he's got masked thugs deployed en masse abducting people, beating people, killing people, harassing and arresting brown citizens simply for being brown in the wrong place and time, and engaging in other senseless actually of cruelty. Why? For th stated purpose of terrorizing those populations. It's explicit and deliberate. And it's completely disingenuous for you to pretend this is an apples-to-apples comparison, let alone unfair coverage. Unbelievable.
  9. I guess to fascists anyone filming then must be a terrorist, because he didn't attack them in any way, shape or form. You guys are just full fascist at this point. Anyone who resists the state, even non-violently, is a "terrorist." GTFO
  10. You must mean the woman the ICE agent crossed the street to violently shove to the ground. She was just filming.
  11. He clearly wasn't planning to use it on anyone. That would have been the moment, but instead he left it holstered--even while they beat him.
  12. Lol. You don't even realize how wildly unqualified you are to guess at what "normal" people might think. Exhibit A: You're a total farking lunatic, and not even aware of it.
  13. What is the world coming to when the press holds a POTUS accountable for all the crazy shit he says? Shame! The volume of coverage and negative coverage is simply a reflection of what Trump is saying and doing. No president in history has stayed up all night posting insane shit while perched on his gold-plated toilet, and the coverage reflects that. It is unthinkable that a person like this is in the Oval Office. Nearly every day he says or does something wholly disqualifying. Frankly, the press is probably too generous.
  14. Well, the MAGA turds surely do not care about the courts and the rule of law, but the rest of America does.
  15. Maybe try reading it slower. The DOJ made an "emergency" request. The panel rejected it. Just like the appeals court. Just like the magistrate. 0 for 3. Better luck next time.
  16. Three strikes for Trump's lynch mob. Appeals court rejects DOJ’s emergency bid to arrest Don Lemon, church demonstrators The ruling by a panel that included two Trump appointees followed a sharp rebuke of prosecutors by the chief federal judge in Minnesota. Your seething jealousy isn't very becoming.
  17. These are people who would argue that Gandhi had it coming. Comply with any authoritarian order or you'll get the beating you deserve.
  18. How do I know it was Pretti's gun strapped to Pretti's waist? You got me. That is an assumption, I guess. And you can clearly see gray jacket remove it in the video you posted. Are they all "altered"? Is that the new pivot?
  19. "Disgrace your family"? Protection much? I'm not the one using the innate traits of my family members as "insults" toward strangers on the Internet. There world is full of hateful homophobes, but for a gay kid having a parent of that ilk is a betrayal that cuts deep. I have friends in that situation who are still trying to understand and reckon with that kind of parental hate while in their forties. I hope the rest of his family is more accepting, and that you someday get whatever help you need. Best of luck.
  20. You are nuts. He's trying to protect that woman from ICE after one of them violently shoved her down. https://x.com/charliekirk11/status/970091987104911361?s=20
  21. I know you're not very bright, but, for the record, you're the only one here engaged in "tough talk"--or what a rather dim 5th grader imagines tough talk sounds like. And it's becoming pretty clear that you have indeed been drinking already. I can almost hear the slurring through the screen.
  22. OMG, so dumb. They start out taking about a data breach, but then describe the ICE List, which is just a wiki compiled from publicly available information: ICE agents who post themselves on LinkedIn etc. If ICE agents are doxxing themselves, will Noem try to prosecute them? It's a mystery.🙄
  23. Good. We shouldn't have secret police in this country. The police should be known, identifiable and accountable.
  24. If you don't want to be called out for your shitty behavior, maybe just stop behaving that way. 💡
  25. Again, I didn't know what you're seeing, but gray jacket takes Pritty's gun from Pritty's waist and carries it away. You can see that even in this video, correct? And in other angles, you can clearly see him leave the scrum with the gun. You WANT it to be Pritty's gun on the ground, but we know that Pritty's gun was elsewhere. So what else might it be?
