A blind man was left to fend for himself on a bitter February night by Donald Trump’s DHS. His death was just ruled a homicide. This was a failure of basic humanity. The Erie County District Attorney is investigating. Anyone found responsible must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

BREAKING: French General Michel Yakovleff HUMILIATES Trump for begging Europe to get involved in his Iran War, says that it would be like "buying cheap tickets for the Titanic" after it hit the iceberg. This is beyond brutal... "We have five reasons to say no to him, in fact," said Yakovleff. "So, the first one is that he didn't understand that if he wants to carry out a NATO operation, NATO has to take command. So, there will be an American general, but it's a single operation." “You can’t have an American operation where they’re bombing whatever they can and then below that, the Europeans doing something else,” Yakovleff said. “No, no, no, it has to be one sole operation, under a NATO flag. I don’t think he understood that.” Yakovleff served as a three general in the French Army, was commander of the French Foreign Legion, and served in top positions in NATO. He's a highly respected military expert in France and regularly weighs in on issues of international importance. Trump has been pleading with allied nations to get involved in his Iran fiasco. Iranian missiles and drones have made it impossible for oil tankers to obtain insurance to traverse the Strait of Hormuz, through which 20% of the world's petroleum normally passes. Oil prices are skyrocketing. So far, Japan, Australia, the United Kingdom, and the European Union have refused Trump's request. General Yakovleff went on to point out that Trump's strategic goals, beyond forcing open the strait, are vague and undefined. If NATO nations were even going to consider involvement, they would need the United States to explain explicitly in writing what the goals are. "And it's not tweets, and it's not things that change every two minutes. So, already there, it's going to be necessary for Trump himself to know what he wants," said the general. He said that there's also the issue of the lack of "confidence" in Trump. It's well-known that he regularly abandons his allies and he could do so here immediately after other nations got involved. “He would let us down whenever it suited him," said Yakovleff. He ended his tirade by comparing Trump to the captain of the Titanic trying to "sell cheap tickets" for his voyage "after having hit the iceberg." “And the last argument is American: you don’t reinforce failure. I learnt that at the U.S. Army War College. You don’t reinforce failure, you move on, you find something else.” he added. "So, there are a lot of reasons to say no." Please ❤️ and share if you think that the Iran War is a total disaster!

It hasn’t even been a week, and Trump’s regime change war in Iran has already cost taxpayers over $6.5 billion. That’s more than twice as much as what we spent on housing homeless veterans in 2025. Outrageous.

Still can't really process that border patrol made the decision to leave a nearly-blind refugee outside a donut shop five miles from his house. And that he then (as could have easily been imagined) died. And that there likely won't be any accountability for this.

What happened last night w/ kids being released by ICE Nazis from Whipple Federal Building in Minneapolis was straight up evil. The kids were released in blizzard conditions wearing only t-shirts as protection from the freezing cold. The pedophile president is a fucking MONSTER.

Homan to MN, Trump speaks with Walz, Leavitt distances Trump a bit from Noem—all show Trump’s feeling heat. But these gestures mean as much as Putin suggesting he’s changed and wants peace with Ukraine. Don’t fall for it. Insist: ICE and CBP off the streets of Minnesota.

ICE detain U.S. Army Purple Heart Veteran for hours—deny access to lawyer. Agents gang tackle him to ground—severely injure his face. "They did offer me a band-aid," he said. "But I’d rather have a lawyer than band-aid when being detained." The Iraq combat veteran was wounded during his military service and medically retired from the U.S. Army—awarded the Purple Heart. ICE claims they denied him access to his lawyer because he didn't know his full name—which he couldn't provide as they had also taken his phone. William Vermie was then locked up for 8 more hours at the Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

You sat out 2024. Nearly 90 million of you did. And because you stayed home, others decided your future, your rights, your country. No more excuses. Your silence is surrender. Democracy isn't a spectator sport, it's your duty and your power. Get registered. Get informed. Show up next time. Your vote isn't just a right; it's the weapon that shapes tomorrow. Rise up. Vote. Own it. The stakes are too high for you to sit on the sidelines again. #Vote

The Powell witch-hunt is not about revenge. It’s not about monetary policy. It’s about power. As is ICE. As is Venezuela. As is the fact that he does not intend to give up power in 2028.

BREAKING: ICE agent in Minneapolis just violently SHOVED a man filming their vehicle to the ground. This is illegal, as it is excessive force. Courts routinely rule that throwing or violently pushing a non-threatening person to the ground for a minor obstruction is unconstitutional. The legal remedy here would be to pull the man away or gently push him or escort him away.

The Trump administration is excusing murder by ICE using the same lies as those told by Maduro’s regime. These lies are part of the logic of death squads. The government controls the story and the next murder is easier. And suddenly this is normal and people simply disappear.

Couple who was pepper sprayed while peacefully protesting in Minnesota speaks out: We came down here to peacefully protest because you can't be silent anymore. We stepped back when law enforcement came out. Two of them just started shoving any of us that were standing there, then started shooting pepper spray. She's 70 years old. She doesn't need to be pushed to the ground. The crowd wasn't at a stage where they needed to be pepper sprayed and aggressively put down like that. It was so unnecessary.

ICE detain Native American—punch him repeatedly even after complying with face scan. Mother brought passport & birth certificate but agents didn't care—just joked that he "wasn’t really from here." "Police can you help us?" she begs officers just watching. "We're citizens!" Jose "Beto" Roberto Ramirez was born in the U.S.—and is a member of the Red Lake Band of Chippewa Indians located in north central Minnesota. #DemsUnited

With Trump, we see American imperialism with no clothes. Naked and vain. American imperialism is not just morally wrong. It is strategically disastrous. I wrote this essay in March when Vance was in Greenland and it's unfortunately more relevant than ever snyder.substack.com/p/vance-in-gre…

The incalculable impact of a decade of Trump is the erosion of basic decency and dignity at the highest level of public life. Trump’s horrific response to Rob Reiner’s death is breaking through bc people know intuitively that Trump has been corrosive to our entire society.
