The government claimed she rammed Border Patrol agents with her vehicle before an agent shot her five times. But new bodycam video shows the agent turned his steering wheel toward Marimar Martinez and that he was congratulated for "excellent service" after shooting her.
If Congress had the slightest courage or self-respect, they’d launch oversight hearings of these allegations. If the allegations are false or overstated they’d be helping the administration and the country by clearing the air. If they are found to be true, and part of administration policy, impeachment proceedings of those responsible should be launched.
But not caring either way and doing nothing is flatly a violation of their oaths. The GOP controlled Congress is simply derelict.

@paulkruegersd Thanks but I really just think a public flyer opposing a building because of its height should include accurate elevations. Otherwise it’s a lie, right?
Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine. History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for.

Transnistria is a region of 367,000 in Moldova occupied by about 1,500 Russian soldiers and controlled by a Russian mafia puppet government ever since the fall of the Soviet Union.
I asked Stephen Miller, one of Donald Trump's top advisors, what is the evidence for saying that Caracas and Venezuela are safer than the United States. He began by answering that it is the government's numbers. I asked him if he trusted Maduro's numbers. And this was his reaction.👇
It used to be pretty lonely to be a YIMBY elected official. That era is over.
Kamala: “There’s a serious housing shortage. It’s too difficult to build & it’s driving prices up. We’ll take down barriers & cut red tape including at the state & local levels”
