🚨BREAKING: An ICE agent POINTED A GUN at a U.S. citizen, through her car window, while threatening her, in Falls Church, Virginia.
And the excuse?
They claimed she “almost ran them over.”
Except… she had a dash cam recording the entire thing.
She immediately called their bullshit:
“You are so full of shit. I didn’t almost run anyone over.”
The agent tells her, “You aren’t funny.”
She responds, “You aren’t funny.”
Then he threatens her… “Keep it up, I will arrest you.” While he has his gun aimed inches away from her.
She says, “I’m a legal citizen, for what?”
And they keep threatening her with arrest.
Then, the agent repeats the accusation that she tried to run them over.
So, she tells him, “Run you over when? I have dash cam recording. That’s a lie.”
And suddenly… they WALK AWAY.
Because if she had actually tried to run federal agents over, why did they just leave after she called their bullshit, and said she had video proving them wrong?
And just to emphasize the seriousness of what happened…
An ARMED federal agent had his GUN POINTED AT A WOMAN, through her car window, while threatening her with arrest.
Pointing a firearm at someone is an enormous use of force that should NEVER be treated casually… especially when the supposed justification is an accusation they apparently couldn’t… or wouldn’t… back up.
She wasn’t arrested.
They didn’t show her evidence that she committed a crime.
They just threatened her, pointed a gun at her, and repeatedly told her they would lock her up if she continued following them.
And the SECOND she says, “I have it on dash cam,” they WALK AWAY.
Because apparently the threat disappears when there’s a camera that can prove what actually happened.
This is exactly why people need to DOCUMENT these encounters.
Because when armed federal agents can point guns at citizens, and make accusations with seemingly no consequences, the public needs cameras.
And when they threaten you for asking, “For what?”
keep recording.
Tim Scott says Democrats want to turn DC and Puerto Rico into states/Pack the Supreme Court and the only way to stop them is by preventing James Talarico from becoming Michigan’s next senator….
“We have to stop Talarico in Michigan by electing Mike Rogers”
Talarico is running for the Senate in Texas
Young people interested in democratic socialism—not the psychotic Stalinism of Trump’s friends Kim Jong Un, President Xi and Vladimir Putin!—are more than welcome in the Democratic Party I believe in. Young Americans are not talking about the dictatorship of the proletariat or seizing the means of production. They just want healthcare for everyone in the richest country in the world, a dramatically increased minimum wage and to get rid of corporate rule by our dangerous billionaire oligarchs. Down with Trump and the octogenarian oligarchs; power to young America.
So Trump and the White House lied about which plane Trump was on flying out of Turkey, setting up journalists who thought they were on the same plane as the president to possibly be the target of an Iranian attack while he secretly departed on a different one.
Words fail. https://t.co/6sxLQTeDQ8
President Donald Trump is bringing an IndyCar race to Washington, with drivers set to speed at 200 mph around a 1.66-mile street circuit around the National Mall.
Damning letter to "football family" citing "fundamental breach of trust", questionable leadership, and lack of transparency.

Just going to drop this quote here, h/t @jemelehill:
“Just so you know — trans athletes can no longer compete in the NCAA or Olympics. 29 states have banned trans youth from participating in sports, K-12. Y’all won. So I’m wondering what’s it going to take to get you all to stop whining about 1 percent of the population? The WNBA has never had a trans woman competing in its 30 year history, so what’s the issue? Or would y’all prefer to keep imagining implausible scenarios to continue to justify your hatred of the trans community?”

The Max Miller debacle gets worse—his ex-wife’s lawyers say he shared pictures of their daughter’s genitals to 200K+ people as part of his Dropbox effort.
🚨 NEWS: In a new court filing, Capital One says Donald Trump’s accounts were closed in 2021 after months of analysis by its anti-money laundering (AML) professionals, not because of politics, as Trump has long claimed.
The bank says its AML team conducted a careful review that identified suspicious transaction patterns and made the decision under federal anti-money laundering obligations.
