For 6 years Ken Paxton has been raging about non citizen voting. In 2019 he claimed 58,000 non citizens voted and was proven wrong. When given a list of 53 non citizens to investigate, five on the list turned out to be citizens, 47 did not vote, and only one was charged with illegal voting. One will never find a solution for a problem that doesn’t exist. There are more pedophiles in the Trump administration than there are illegal voters in the country.
Russ Clark, a retired U.S. Marine Corps infantry commander who served in Vietnam and holds a graduate degree in mental health counseling, issued a scathing assessment of Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, stating that his ten-year acquaintance with Hegseth allowed him to diagnose the defense secretary as "an arrogant, inebriated, misogynistic, cruel, sadistic, adolescent psychopath" who is now "controlling the strongest military in world history like he's playing a video game".
Clark's post on Threads (March 2026), carries particular weight given his credentials as both a combat veteran and retired United Methodist minister who now serves as a chaplain to veterans.
SPOILER ALERT: Your government will "collapse" if we expose the largest child sex trafficking ring?
Then collapse that motherfucker. A system protecting child predators has no right to exist.

This is who America is behind the fog of the declaration of war on everyday Americans and the thuggery of this regime.

Statement from Veterans For Responsible Leadership
January 24, 2026:
Today, Veterans For Responsible Leadership mourns the killing of Alex Pretti, a Minnesota resident, U.S. citizen, and healthcare professional who served veterans through his work as a nurse with the Department of Veterans Affairs. Mr. Pretti dedicated his life to caring for others — including those who once wore this nation’s uniform — and his death at the hands of federal immigration agents is a tragedy that should never have occurred.
This incident highlights a deeply disturbing trend: the misuse of ICE agents as a de-facto paramilitary or secret police force operating inside American communities. These agents are being deployed without sufficient training, transparency, or coordination with local authorities, creating fear rather than safety. It is a betrayal of American values and constitutional norms.
We understand the anger and grief this has sparked in Minnesota and beyond. Those emotions are real and justified. But we urge calm. Violence and chaos only deepen the harm. The path forward is peaceful protest, civic action, and sustained public pressure — the very tools that have strengthened this democracy for generations.
We call on Americans to contact their Members of Congress and demand accountability, oversight, and immediate reform of federal enforcement practices that endanger civilian lives. Federal power must never be used to terrorize the people it exists to serve.
As veterans, we swore an oath to defend the Constitution — not a political agenda, not fear, and not unchecked authority. We honor Alex Pretti’s service by demanding a country worthy of it.
Children die in school shootings and it’s “not the guns”.
Mass shootings claim lives multiple times a year and it’s “not the guns”.
Kyle Rittenhouse shot 3 people during a protest and it’s “not the guns”
ICE kills Alex Pretti, and suddenly it’s his fault because he “had a gun”
You must provide your ID, but they can wear masks and conceal their identities.
You must comply with every order, even when they ignore the very laws they’re sworn to uphold.
You’re told to prioritize the officer’s “safety,” while his masked buddies surround your car armed to the teeth.
You can't be armed, but they’re armed with military-grade weapons and authorized to use them to enforce compliance.
You can't protest or "interfere", but they can enter your homes, detain your children, and kill your neighbors.
You can't film them, but they can monitor your movements, scan your license plate, and track your location in real time.
You can be fined and imprisoned for one wrong move, but they’re shielded by qualified immunity, and legally allowed to deceive you during questioning.
At some point, the power dynamic reversed.
Public servants became untouchable authorities, and abuse of power was rebranded as “order.” In the process, we’ve normalized state-sanctioned extortion, brutality, and subservience to law enforcement.
If these profound double standards don’t alarm you, it’s not because they aren’t there. It’s because you’ve been trained not to notice. That’s how we got here.
It's time to start noticing and say no more...
Wow the Speech that this woman gives to a San Antonio City Council on ICE and their cooperation with them is by far one of the best I’ve ever heard! We need more people like this coming forward and speaking out! 👇👇👇👇
I know Christmas is over but I LOVE seeing the love and joy experienced in our families during this time of year. And their home is absolutely beautiful! This is what love looks like.
