No real 'man' throws a woman to the ground. I slowed it down to 0.5x speed, went frame by frame. He dragged her, then whipped her on the ground. Her hands covered her face as he leaned down to hit her. Other ICE pulled him away.

He should be charged.

Judge calls Trump administration's push for states' voter information 'chilling'

Updated: Feb. 06, 2026, 9:42 a.m. By Maxine Bernstein

A judge on Thursday released his written opinion rejecting the federal government’s attempt to obtain Oregon’s unredacted voter rolls, calling its motives and claims “troubling” and “chilling.”

It built on U.S. District Judge Mustafa T. Kasubhai’s ruling from the bench last week.


“The Constitution specifically left the regulation and administration of elections to the states, understanding that states are in the best position to do so. While the Constitution provides for Congress to preempt the role of the states in elections, Congress has only done so in limited ways,” Kasubhai wrote in the 26-page opinion.

..............

Kasbuhai said President Donald Trump administration’s attempt to compel Oregon to turn over highly personal information on its voters defied the law. The federal government sought the release of full dates of birth, driver’s license numbers and partial Social Security numbers...............

I will not sit idly as they use me as a prop in a closed-door kangaroo court by a Republican Party running scared. If they want answers, let’s stop the games & do this the right way: in a public hearing, where the American people can see for themselves what this is really about.

Some days it is hard to believe what MAGA folks will do or say--but it happens.


Karen is breaking the law and needs a hefty ticket.

This is discussing. It took place in the city I live in.

A woman walking into a TJ Maxx in Fort Myers, Florida was targeted by a MAGA Karen because of her skin color.

MAGA Karen tells the Hispanic woman:

“I’ll call ICE… I hope they shoot you like the others.”

This is what Trump has done to America.

The National Park Service has removed visitor brochures from the Medgar & Myrlie Evers Home National Monument. Among the anticipated changes? No longer calling his murderer a “racist.”

Edits to the brochure have removed that reference to Byron De La Beckwith, according to Park Service officials, who asked not to be named for fear of retribution. Other edits include eliminating the reference to Medgar Evers lying in a pool of blood after being shot.

Reena Evers-Everette, executive director of the Medgar & Myrlie Evers Institute and daughter of the couple, said the family has been told the matter is under review, “but the final product has not been put out yet.”

In 1963, Beckwith shot the civil rights leader in the back on the driveway of the Evers family home in northwest Jackson. It would take 31 more years before a Mississippi jury would convict Beckwith.

Jeff Steinberg, founder of Sojourn to the Past, which regularly takes students and police officers on civil rights tours to the home, questioned the change to the Park Service material. “You can’t call Beckwith a racist?” he said. “If you opened a picture dictionary and turned to the definition for ‘racist,’ you’d probably find a picture of Byron De La Beckwith.”.................

What a nasty little prick--to say the least!!


🚨 BREAKING: Outside the Minnesota State Capitol, conservative activist Jake Lang was arrested after defacing an ICE protest ice sculpture, changing “Prosecute ICE” to “Pro ICE.”

Authorities say he caused about $6,000 in damage and booked him into Ramsey County Jail.

Want to debate policy? Great.
Want to vandalize and get arrested for it? That comes with consequences.
