Mackenzie Padilla was nine months pregnant when officer Carri Carrico reportedly pushed her against a wall, dragged her to a bench and swung at her head inside a booking facility. A federal civil rights lawsuit alleges racial slurs, an unlawful search and a violent assault. Carrico reportedly had prior misconduct complaints and received only verbal counseling. She has since resigned and been indicted on two counts of aggravated assault.
ICE smashed the window of a disabled Iraq War veteran, on his way to work, pepper-sprayed him, dragged him out at gunpoint, and locked him up for three days without charges.
This is fascism.
https://t.co/du9bv2U4pY confirms that George Retes is a citizen, a disabled U.S. Army veteran who served his country in Iraq.
Federal agents smashed his truck window, sprayed him with chemical agents, detained him for three days, denied him contact with his family, and released him without charges. He missed his daughter’s third birthday while sitting in a cell.
No person on American soil should fear being treated this way, least of all a citizen and veteran at the hands of his own government. A nation that can do this to a U.S. citizen and veteran can do it to anyone.

This was not an arrest attempt. These white law enforcement officers sought to dehumanize an innocent Black man through cruel, violent, and lawless abuse.
Russell Vought, author of Project 2025 and all the budget cuts, finally decided to testify for the @USHouseFSC (he's obligated by law).
Now we have it on record that he thinks he works for the President.
Wrong. You work for the American people, Russell.

Cruel & unusual punishment. Tremar Harris was strapped to a restraint chair and choked by a guard while other officers watched. The civil rights lawsuit alleges a guard made horrific, racist remarks during the assault. #JusticeForTremarHarris#CivilRights
Police in plain clothes ambush Black man pumping gas—repeatedly punch him during brutal arrest.
"I didn’t know they were agents," he said.
"They had no bodycam, no badges, no nothing."
"I thought they were just white guys at a gas station."
2 agents hid behind car and the 3rd approached the man and pushed him in their direction.
At that point the agents jumped out and all 3 tackled the man and beat him with excessive force.
22-year-old Nakyje Kelly was first accused of having an expired registration sticker.

BOOM! TRUTH ALWAYS WANTS TO BE FOUND: This patriot climbed the crate, grabbed the mic, and swore the oath: "Nothing but the truth — so help me God."
Then he torched the whole game.
GOP governor. GOP legislature. GOP supermajority in both chambers. Alabama — Republican-run top to bottom — leads the nation in starving children. Counties with zero pediatric beds. Hospitals boarded up and dark.
Their solution? Cut SNAP. Cut Medicaid. Then point at brown skin in the city and scream "enemy."
That's not governance. That's a carnival act. Right-wing carnies invent monsters so they can pick your pocket while you're looking the other way.
Misled republicans still blaming Democrats?
Congratulations — you just earned an A in Conservative Gaslighting and an F in Reality.
REMEMBER BEFORE YOU VOTE!
Kevin Garnett & JR Rider tell an amazing Michael Jordan story:

🚨 Florida police tackled and broke a 15-year-old Black teen’s arm while searching for a white runaway they had just seen in a photo.
Judah Everage was on his knees with his hands in the air when officers slammed him to the ground near Wickham Park in Melbourne. He wasn’t the person they were looking for, but they still fractured his elbow. Body camera footage shows he was complying the entire time.
One officer has since resigned, but the others involved are still on the job.
This is what happens when police treat Black kids as suspects first and ask questions later. Disgusting.
