AN ICE AGENT TORTURED A MAN TO DEATH, THEN COVERED IT UP.

AN. ICE. AGENT. TORTURED. A. MAN. TO. DEATH. THEN. COVERED. IT. UP!

[Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran]

Imagine for a moment that your heart stopped.

You wake up 3 days later in hospital.

You’re recovering in hospital for the next 3 weeks, but stories of your death start to pop up on the news.

….and not once does any staffer “hey, you should make a statement!”

MEANWHILE:

-Your wife is in China
-Your daughter deletes her Twitter account
-Journalists hound your staffers.

Maybe you look rough.

Maybe you can’t even speak.

But not a tweet?

Not a written statement attributed to your name, that some staffer wrote?

Instead only a “statement from your office”

Why?

If you’re awake and recovering in a bed, why no statement on the rumors of your own death, which staffers have surely seen now?

Unless you are unable to.

And no matter why you are unable to…

…it means you are also unfit to serve.

🚨 A Republican Councilman is now facing child m*lestation charges after the parents of his 12-year-old victim caught him.

This assault happened shortly after he was caught doing drugs in his car.

No objection from Trumpty or Stephen Miller.
Wealthy Russian women frequently travel to South Florida for "birth tourism," paying for packages of up to $75,000+ that include short-term rentals in luxury Trump-branded properties—such as Trump Palace, Trump Royale, and Trump Towers in Sunny Isles Beach—to secure U.S. citizenship for their babies.

what a mystery! McConnell's wife "fled to China" as soon as he had a heart attack but surely she has returned by now?
such an odd marriage like something out of "The Manchurian Candidate"--but then, what isn't these days.

🚨 Republican Mayor Gary Clark r*ped multiple girls, one as young as 4 years old, for half a decade.

He was given a sweetheart deal by Republican prosecutors, being released after just 6 months in jail.

[Joyce Carol Oates @JoyceCarolOates]

what will probably happen will be that lonely, poor, disabled persons or persons just ill or aged will pass away unnoticed without appropriate medical care. think of how expensive cancer treatment is: usually surgery followed by chemo or radiation. how many trips to a hospital. no money for any of this, just--"budget cut."
even to have routine preventative tests like colonoscopies is very expensive. seniors often have no access to transportation. once the welfare safety net is cut, people die in solitude.
but the ultra-wealthy had to have their tax cuts, & voters snubbed K. Harris for their reasons. only the poor will be really disadvantaged but that category--"poor"---is ever expanding.

[Joyce Carol Oates @JoyceCarolOates]

discussing today with friends how no one seems to be prepared for what is literally imminent regarding large segments of our society that are not protected by having savings; for instance, the disabled. media reports these cuts in the budget more or less indifferently; but real, living people are going to be affected & their lives will be at risk.
national attention is usually fixed upon sports, celebrity wedding, fireworks etc. T***p's latest insults & accusations. in the meantime, Stephen Miller's chilling social plans are being put into law.

🚨Zachary Radcliff, former worship director and interim youth pastor at Oakwood Church in Augusta Township, Michigan, is facing 60 felony charges: first-degree criminal s*xual conduct, child s*xually abusive activity, and using a computer to commit a crime.

Prosecutors say the abuse spanned more than a decade, with multiple victims identified.

Radcliff’s father, Frank Radcliff, is the church’s senior pastor. Two lawsuits now allege that church leadership — including Frank — knew about the abuse for years before it became public, despite Frank claiming he was “shocked” when charges were filed in 2024.

One lawsuit claims that around 2021, a victim reported inappropriate physical contact to a family member in church leadership, who “took no meaningful action.”

Another plaintiff alleges he was 11 or 12 when he stayed overnight at the Radcliff home and slept in the same bed as Zachary — in their underwear — and that Zachary later coerced him into sending s*xually explicit videos for money.

A judge overseeing the case didn’t mince words, calling Radcliff one of the most “egregious predators” he’s seen in over 25 years on the bench. Radcliff has been denied bond.

Radcliff was a Liberty University Music alum who performed his song “I’ll Stand” at CPAC in 2019 and posed for photos with Donald Trump Jr. — because of course.

[Police The Police 2.0 @PoliceThePolic1]

⚠️ All 39 child pornography charges against former San Antonio police officer Matthew Martin have been dismissed after courts ruled that key evidence obtained from his cellphone could not be used.

According to court records, Martin’s ex-fiancée brought his phone to police in 2021 after reporting that she found illegal material on it. However, courts later determined that officers violated Martin’s Fourth Amendment rights when they searched the phone and that important information about how police obtained the device was omitted from a search warrant affidavit.

After appeals were exhausted, the Bexar County District Attorney’s Office said it could not move forward without the suppressed evidence and closed the case.

Martin previously resigned from SAPD in 2018 in lieu of a perjury charge in an unrelated case.

Do you think the case should have been dismissed?

🚨James Gosnell Jr. — the Charleston County magistrate who in 2015 told grieving Emanuel AME families that white supremacist shooter Dylann Roof’s relatives were “victims too” — has pleaded guilty to two federal charges: possession and distribution of child s*xual abuse material (CSAM).

Gosnell faces up to 20 years on each count, a mandatory minimum of 5 years, restitution, and lifetime sex offender registration.

Federal prosecutors say the CSAM recovered from Gosnell’s devices specifically included infants and toddlers.

In their motion opposing bond, they laid out Telegram communications between Gosnell and a co-defendant (who has already pleaded guilty and agreed to cooperate) describing a planned trip to jointly abuse a infant, plus alleged references to past international trips connected to abusing young children abroad.

Gosnell spent months in jail claiming his devices were hacked (of course) and the CSAM was placed there. That story collapsed the moment a plea was on the table.

No matter how horrific the crimes, they always portray themselves of the victim.

Gosnell is the same judge reprimanded by the SC Supreme Court in 2003 for using a racial slur from the bench with a Black defendant.

A man who spent decades deciding who deserved the benefit of the doubt was, by prosecutors’ account, s*xually exploiting children this the whole time.

Sentencing date is to be determined.

Gosnell was originally appointed to the bench by Republican SC Governor David Beasley in 1996.

[Mike Young @micyoung75]

The Declaration of Independence has two halves. The second paragraph is the one everyone quotes. The section that follows is a list of grievances against King George, and one of them reads directly: He has endeavored to prevent the population of these States, for that purpose obstructing the laws for naturalization of foreigners, refusing to pass others to encourage their migration hither.

The founders put that in as a charge against a tyrant. Proof that the king had forfeited his right to govern.

This July 4th, while ICE runs a quiet 2,000-arrest-a-day operation without fanfare, the document we're celebrating names blocking immigration as one of the things that ends a government's legitimacy. Gerald Ford knew this. He went to Monticello on the bicentennial to swear in new citizens and told them: We have gained far, far more than we have given. Reagan said it at his farewell. Both men are now deceased members of the party running the deportation operation.

So called "closed loop systems" are like "clean coal" in that they don't actually exist. This has barely received attention, but AI data centers pump millions of gallons of waste into the groundwater, which will render the area uninhabitable well before the water runs out.

[Reich-Wing Watch @ReichWingWatch]

🚨Trump supporter and neo-Confederate Ralph Mincey, 63, is charged with two counts of murder after fatally shooting his wife of 38 years, Jennifer Mincey, 57, and their daughter, Amanda Mincey McBrayer, 37, outside their Oxford, Georgia home. He is also facing a weapons possession charge.

Deputies arrived to find McBrayer already dead. Jennifer Mincey was rushed to the hospital, where she later died. Mincey called 911 himself: “I just shot my daughter and my wife of 38 years.” Asked if they were still breathing, he said, “No, it don’t look like it. It was a nine millimeter right straight to the head.”

His son-in-law, Adam McGrath, told dispatchers he ran to protect his own two kids after witnessing the shooting. He said the violence started after an argument — Jennifer had told Amanda that Ralph wasn’t taking care of his mother.

Mincey’s excuse on the call: “I couldn’t handle no more the [expletive] lying and the way they were screaming at me. I just lost it.”

These rage-filled MAGA men have shown themselves to lack self-control over and over again.

Mincey’s public Facebook shows a decade broadcasting exactly the kind of grievance that eventually led to violence — Confederate flag memes, “there are more of us than you can possibly imagine,” complaints about Confederate history being “erased,” posts fantasizing about a reckoning against “Democrats and Liberals,” and a defiant “I will NOT apologize” declaration for supporting Trump.

He also called for boycotting Budweiser and the Academy awards for what he saw as anti-MAGA messaging. No one does cancel culture like the right.

The warning signs are usually there. Save yourselves and get out before it’s too late.

Greg Abbott just appointed Huffines, the owner of the Epstein ranch & his party's nominee, to be TX Comptroller.

Why? So YOU pay for Huffines’ campaign. Last year, Abbott signed SB2, that lets the Comptroller spend your tax $$ on self-advertising as an exception to Govt Code Sec. 2113.011, which bans an agency from using “appropriated money to publicize or direct attention to an individual officer or employee of state government.”

I fought against allowing these taxpayer-funded campaign ads, because I saw it for exactly what it was: corruption.

It’s the Greg Abbott Corruption Tax, & we're all paying it.
