OK, so Karoline Leavitt asked Getty Pictures to delete this unflattering photo of her, so this is me telling you all NOT to RT and share this many times all over the place.
Whatever you do, DON'T RT this.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. ๐
@BigFish3000 Nice try. I took the Amtrak home.
We tried to pay TSA almost a dozen times and Republicans said no every time. Then the GOP Speaker closed session last night and sent everyone home.
Please Google what party is in charge of Congress right now. The answer may surprise you!
At 95, I'm still smokin'! ๐

Mamdani: So Muslims in this city, for almost as long as we have been in this city, have had to deal with those with power and platform dehumanizing us โ to be called animals, insects, to be called a jihadist mayorโฆ.
This language is both painfully familiar to me as a Muslim New Yorker, but also as someone who was born in East Africa, and it is difficult to hear. Thereโs also a reminder that the silence that often greets this kind of bigotry, this kind of Islamophobia, is what allows it to fester โ the temptation to treat it as politics as usual.
And I want to be very clear that I have far more urgent work in front of me than indulging the provocations of a man who trades in outrage and, frankly, fears the city that we are looking to build โ one where every single New Yorker who lives here can call it their home.
I am not ashamed of who I am. I am not ashamed of my faith. I am not ashamed of being the first Muslim mayor in the history of our city. And thereโs no amount of racism that will change the way in which I lead or the commitment that I hold to each and every New Yorker in this city.
Trump has launched an illegal regime change war.
As someone who has survived the horrors of war, I know military strikes will not make us safer; they will inflame tensions and push the region further into chaos.
When we abandon diplomacy, we choose destruction.

๐จBREAKING: ICE agents pulled guns on an unarmed U.S. citizen in a small Minnesota townโฆ then had to be stopped by the local police chief.
This happened in St. Peter, Minnesota. A quiet southern Minnesota town
A local woman was alone in her car, observing and recording ICE activity in her community. She is doing something that is fully protected under the First Amendmentโฆ observing and documenting federal agents in public.
ICE notices her watching.
Three federal vehicles begin chasing her, and try to force her to pull over.
They eventually box her car in and three agents jump out of the vehicle in front of herโฆ with their guns drawnโฆ screaming at her to get out of the car.
She refuses, and states her rights.
The agents open her car door anyway, drag her out, force her to the ground, and handcuff her.
This is all happening while she is unarmed, and alone on a country road.
She suffers cuts, scrapes, and bruises as they pin her down.
Her husband then arrives and starts recording. He tells them they donโt have a warrant and cannot search her car. An ICE agent dismisses him outright and says, โIโm not getting into the legality of everything.โ
Read that again.
A federal agent, pointing guns at civilians, openly says they are not concerned with legality.
ICE puts this woman into their vehicle and starts driving her toward the Twin Cities, toward a federal detention facilityโฆ even though she is a U.S. citizen.
About twenty minutes into the drive, they suddenly turn around after getting a call from a supervisor.
The St. Peter police chief stepped in.
After her husband contacted an attorney and spoke with the police chief, the chief identified the vehicle ICE was using, took custody of the woman, and personally drove her home.
ICE turned her over to local police because what they were doing was so clearly wrong.
This is what is happening in America.
A small-town police chief had to intervene to stop federal agents from disappearing an unarmed woman for observing them.
If ICE feels comfortable pulling guns on unarmed citizens in small towns, chasing them, throwing them to the ground, and ignoring the law entirely, then no town is too small and no one is safe from ICE brutality.
This is what it looks like when federal agents think theyโre above the Constitution.
If they dress like Nazis, salute like Nazis, use Nazi slogans, use Nazi songs in their propaganda, mercilessly execute like Nazis, arrest, deport, cage, starve and murder like Nazis, THEN THEYโRE FUCKING NAZIS!
