Thomas Sophonow spent years of his life living in a prison cell for a crime he didn't commit. Rick Stoppel spent years of his life hating a man because he was convinced the man murdered his little sister; I spoke to both of them in todays's .@WinnipegNews https://t.co/UjlEEySfcv
The only thing prohibiting hikers from using the trail right now is the grizzly bear mauling anyone who steps onto it. Otherwise it’s open and ready to enjoy.
We have to accept an uncomfortable truth. The ‘death and destruction’ language of Trump and Hesgeth is not the language of ‘liberators’.
It’s the language of psychopaths.
There is no human empathy there. I don’t believe they care one jot for the ordinary Iranian people. They only want to destroy Iran.
Donald Trump’s ability to evaluate risk is GONE from frontotemporal dementia. Simultaneously, he is in narcissistic collapse over Epstein. He is taking us down with him.
There will need to be an intervention before it’s over. It’s just about how many people die first.
Breaking on MS NOW:
The Epstein documents initially released today included a spreadsheet containing claims of impropriety — some secondhand — made against Trump and other prominent people that appear to have been unsubstantiated tips or allegations.
The spreadsheet later appeared to have been removed but it was not immediately clear why.
ICE is still being awful in Minneapolis. Today they tried to arrest the family of one of my sister's students (here legally). The agents broke their windows. Now they can't be in their apartment, because it's like 0 degrees and their windows are busted.
The continued detention of 5‑year‑old Liam Ramos is a moral failure of staggering proportions. We’re watching a government justify the unjustifiable: the incarceration of a child who poses no threat to anyone.
We cannot normalize this. We cannot shrug. We cannot scroll past it.
Demand his release.
Hard as it is to accept it, we in Europe must come to terms with the fact that this is precisely the kind of country a significant percentage of the US population wants to have.
Europe cannot be the ally or the partner of this.
BREAKING: A new video of ICE murdering the man in Minneapolis today shows a clear view of what happened from the front angle.
If anyone has the identities of the ice agents who shot this man, please DM me.
The apparently innocent man, who had a license to carry a firearm was merely recording ICE agents, and then ICE began pepper-spraying a young woman next to him. The man then goes to try and pull the young woman to safety when ICE tackles him.
Then multiple agents begin beating on him before shooting and killing him.
This is cold blooded murder!
This is Alan Page protesting in Minneapolis today. Alan was a Minnesota Viking, is in the NFL Hall of Fame and is a retired Justice of the Minnesota Supreme Court. RESPECT!
