🚨This video is terrifying.
And it’s another example of how ICE is making everyone less safe.
At Las Vegas International Airport, two people, in plain clothes, are seen trying to handcuff a man.
The man is screaming for help.
When the person filming asks a TSA agent what is happening, the agent replies, “It’s law enforcement.”
But when the person filming walks over and starts recording the people claiming to be law enforcement, one of them tries to swat the phone away.
Then, as more people begin watching, they get up and leave.
The man is left with a handcuff still attached to one of his wrists. He is visibly shaken and says they stole his belongings.
Think about how dangerous this is.
The government is normalizing armed agents, in plain clothes, grabbing people in public, without immediately identifying themselves in a way bystanders can verify. That creates confusion, panic, and makes it impossible for ordinary people to know whether they’re witnessing a lawful arrest, or a kidnapping.
In this case, people intervened… They started asking questions, and filming.
If no one had stepped in, who knows what would have happened to that man.
A government that expects people to simply accept unidentified agents, taking someone away without question, is making every person in this country less safe.
Ok, let’s all play with Stupid for minute…so exactly how do you “disagree” with something you “know nothing about” or “have no idea” who is behind, saying or doing the thing you disagree with? Since #Project2025 is designed to institutionalize Trumpism and you know nothing about it, then why do you echo some of its policy priorities during your rallies? Coincidence? And how exactly don’t you know that Project 2025 Director Paul Dans served as your chief of staff at the Office of Personnel Management, and Associate Director Spencer Chretien served as your special assistant and associate director of presidential personnel?
And folks say we should be worried about Biden.
if "American politics" were broken, we'd have seen things like this happen when Democrats controlled the House
but we didn't
what's broken, very specifically, is the Republican Party
Work smarter, not harder! If you don't take advantage of AI tools you're going to be left behind.
Here are 10 AI tools to make you more money in 2023 (and finish hours of work in minutes):
The U.S. doesn't suffer from a higher incidence of mental illness than other countries.
What we do have is nearly half the privately-owned guns in the world, despite having just 4 percent of the world's population.
You have to be willfully ignorant to deny this as a big part of the explanation for why America has a dramatically higher number of gun deaths and incidents.
It is March and there have been 129 mass shootings already this year 129 Including one that killed three 9 year olds today Just let that sink in This is a crisis
BREAKING: Lauren Boebert is throwing a tantrum over the fact that Discover Card is going to track gun purchases made with their credit cards. This is a tremendous move that will allow police departments to more easiily track gun-related crimes.
All credit card companies already track our other purchases such as airline tickets, car rentals, lodging, clothing, etc., but Republicans suddenly have a problem when they track if you buy a gun or not. It's almost as if they want potential criminals to be able to more easily commit crimes with the guns they buy.
Hopefully other credit card companies like @Visa@Mastercard and others follow suit.
Normally I wouldn’t preemptively post a response to the response to the State of the Union, but after reading Sarah Huckabee-Sanders’ remarks on Republicans in a “culture war we didn’t start and never wanted to fight”…ma’am this was nearly a *year* ago
Fed Chair Jerome Powell has the power to tank stocks, but also to send them higher—like he did yesterday, when he confirmed that disinflation “has begun.”
My fellow Republicans… you really want this as a role model for your kids? Do you really think the next generation will want to be part of this? I don’t
There are those who will dismiss the meaning of the assault on Pelosi as the act of a lone, unsettled man. But he was echoing far-right conspiracy theories, legitimated by cynical people for their own purposes.
There were many hands on that hammer. https://t.co/Iuf1crZsne
