Tell me in one sentence that you very clearly don't understand the Constitution, don't understand our system of government's checks and balances, don't understand that our whole system of government was set up against having a Monarchy, etc.

@GregAbbott_TX Thanks for jinxing them.

Abbott and Cruz should both be defeated for many reasons, with the hex they impose on our sports teams ranking high on that list.

🚨BREAKING: A U.S. citizen in, Vancouver, WA, was pulled over by FIVE police cars for legally observing and documenting ICE agents… then had to explain the Constitution to the officers detaining him…

And it was all caught on video.

In the video, an ICE agent didn’t like being watched, called local police…

Then suddenly, the U.S. citizen, exercising his constitutional rights, was surrounded by FIVE cop cars.

And most ridiculous part?

The officers who claimed “reasonable suspicion” for detaining the U.S. citizen, could not even answer this simple question…

Is it legal to observe and record law enforcement?

After refusing to answer, and arguing about the First Amendment for several minutes, the officer finally admitted…

Yes. It is legal to observe and record law enforcement.

So, if it’s a legally protected activity… then why was this U.S. citizen detained?

Federal courts, across the country, have repeatedly recognized that the First Amendment protects the right to record and observe government officials… including law enforcement performing their duties in public… as long as you aren’t interfering with them.

That means, local police, and ICE agents, don’t get to decide when that right applies… They don’t get to ignore the Constitution because they’re uncomfortable with public oversight.

But this isn’t the only incident.

Across America, we’re watching local law enforcement work alongside ICE, while ordinary citizens, journalists, and legal observers are being questioned, detained, and intimidated for exercising their constitutional rights.

And the fact that a U.S. citizen had to educate the officers, who were detaining HIM, about the Constitution… should outrage every single person.

Because if the people enforcing the law don’t understand the constitutional rights they’re sworn to protect…

That puts every American in danger.

Wow. So many details. Incredible reporting. Two abused boys became men who abuse, then became men who taught others to engage in abuse for power — condemning even more girls and women to lives lived under abuse.

Leaving this here, in case anyone is wondering why we have screwworm in the US for the first time since the 1960s.

The DOGE stupidity from Trump and Rollins will end up COSTING taxpayers money.

BREAKING: DHS just waived all environmental laws to blast border barriers and roads through Big Bend National Park.

This marks the first time in American history the feds have gutted dozens of laws to push industrial-level construction through a national park.

From the Texas Tribune:

After Mexican officials confirmed case of screwworm in Nov. 2024, USDA, under Joe Biden, closed southern ports of entry to live cattle imports to prevent spread of screwworm into U.S. Move also strained supply of cattle in Texas....
USDA reversed course in Feb 2025, after Trump took office, announcing opening of ports"

A deputy in Brazoria County, TX, watched a few teenage boys work out in a park a recent evening. When they noticed him, they became worried and left. He followed them back to one of the boys' homes and flipped on his lights. The scared driver pulled into his garage, hoping for help from his dad. The deputy walked up and shot him dead. He was unarmed.

🚨BREAKING: In Columbus, Ohio, ICE agents hit a U.S. citizen’s vehicle, and then admitted, on camera, that they “do this all the time”… before driving away.

A 17-year-old U.S. citizen was reportedly on his way to church, when multiple officials surrounded his car, backed into his front bumper, and jumped out of their vehicles.

When he rolled down his window, they told him…

“We got the wrong person.”

And walked back toward their cars.

The 17-year-old got out to document what happened, and told an officer they had hit his vehicle…

And the response was:

“You can take a picture if you want. We do this all the time. You’re okay.”

And then they drove off.

The Fourth Amendment protects you from unreasonable searches and seizures. And courts have made clear that a “seizure” isn’t just being arrested, or put in handcuffs.

It also includes situations where law enforcement use their authority in a way that blocks your freedom to leave… or creates an intimidating, forced encounter.

So, when officers surround a car, hit it while backing up, and pull a teenager into a sudden law enforcement interaction, with no valid reason…

At minimum, it’s a reckless stop. At worst, it’s an unlawful seizure, with property damage, and no accountability.

And then there’s the part when she casually said…

“We do this all the time.”

Because that turns an “oops” moment into a pattern.

And when that pattern violates your constitutional rights and due process, it starts to feel a lot like the government is using the Constitution like they use the Bible…

Quoted when it’s useful, ignored when it isn’t.
