i will never understand and i reject how those of you who let fascism rise and then lost to it think talking about the results of ur utter failure is ever comical
just keep telling lame jokes losers
but ur comic strip about a recent murder also factually misses the point, in addition to finally missing the point
ICEs surveillance apps Tangles & WEBLOC give them real time ‘snap shots’ into every neighborhood they target
and they also build there data bases on everyone when they take their photos
Alex was targeted likley by these apps and OCE agent intel. so when they arrived Alex was likley already flagged as a BOLO and as being armed and dangerous
which these fascists take as meaning he’s on their kill list
but whatever just tell jokes as if this isn’t all u idiots fault
OK, I'll bite, what opportunities did we miss to prevent this crop of fascists from coming to power? (FYI Wonkette readers by and large are dependable voters) So if I understand you correctly WE are responsible for what fascists, buoyed by 99% of elected republicans and those on the SCOTUS, do?
"because only the worst scum in the world commit property damage." Uh...how about the East fucking Wing?! It wasn't damaged, it was obliterated and turned into landfill.
Shootings can only be justified by the events and circumstances of the time it happened. Incidents from nearly two weeks prior are irrelevant except they might show that CPB goons knew of Pretti from before and targeted him for murder.

Was there a stated mission as to why ICE was at that particular location where he was observing and killed? I read,perhaps speculation, that the earlier incident could have prompted ICE to track Pretti’s cell phone location data. Was the second encounter purely coincidence or was he tracked down?
ICE has a cadre of videographers among them. They have much better videos of the murders and brutality than a bunch of shaky iPhone stuff taken by those being beaten and killed.
"This is how the machine works when a death threatens to expose it. This is the oldest hustle in the book. If you can’t justify the killing, assassinate the character. If you can’t defend the shots, smear the corpse and put the victim on trial. The question stops being “Why did armed agents execute that man?” and becomes “Was he respectable enough to deserve to live?”"
Thanks for adding that! Absolute scorcher, connecting ALL the dots, from "the timing is the tell' to "Different face, same function, to launder an execution into a lesson...turn a killing into a warning."
The spousal unit just turned on the golf tournament. The bad thing about watching golf is that it reminds you that somewhere in the country people are wearing short sleeves.
There is a book about the differences between the way men and women think - I think it's "He Said, She Said" but it might not be - in which the authors - a man and a woman - explained that women are perfectly happy to go on a date that consists of sitting in a quiet place, like a park or on a beach, and talking, but most men consider that to be a waste of time. Apparently most men think you have to be doing something ACTIVE when you are outside, even if it's only sitting in the bleachers of a stadium watching other men be active. They said that golf was the perfect male sport...you're basically just walking in a park, but you're DOING SOMETHING by whacking a tiny ball with a long metal stick.
Once I was watching a ballet on TV and my father walked through the room and said "I don't understand how you can sit there for 3 hours watching people dance. Don't you get bored with that?" I replied "Last weekend you watched golf on TV for 4 hours. Don't you get bored with that?" Long silence, then he said "Touché."
Baconz played golf for years. I was actually very good at it in my teens and early 20s. I haven't picked up the sticks since the Clinton administration.
Its a frustrating sport.
As a guy once said (I think it was Oscar Wilde) "Golf is a good walk spoiled".
They ain't foolin anybody, especially Tokyo Rose, er, I mean, Megyn Kelly.
I recall reading how, after the Liberation, women who collaborated with the Nazis were paraded through the streets in their underwear with their heads shaved. I guess the head-shaving part will be the most difficult for Megyn to bear. Having worked for Roger Ailes, she was already used to modeling in her underwear.
When my grandfather was in his '90s, he and I spent a couple days together. One night he made a pitcher of the worst Manhattans I've ever drunk way too much of, and he told me some stories he'd never have told me while Grandma was alive, and before I was 30.
One of them was about a stripper in southern Ohio in the early 1930s, who did a Cleopatra routine, and his buddies double-dog-dared him to ask her out. So he did. He described her as being pretty nice, pretty stand-offish, a pretty woman but (as he put it) with a hard look to her.
Megyn Kelly has a hard look to her. And she's not nice in any way.
So "Little Egypt," as the long-gone obscure stripper billed herself, is Megyn Kelly's superior in pretty much every where.

Kind of like Derek Chauvin and George Floyd.

Doesn’t exactly help their case.
Was there a stated mission as to why ICE was at that particular location where he was observing and killed? I read,perhaps speculation, that the earlier incident could have prompted ICE to track Pretti’s cell phone location data. Was the second encounter purely coincidence or was he tracked down?
The excuses for his murder suggest he was a known agitator, worthy of execution.
Worthy of execution. Like death row inmates? That have had years of due process, but still are not executed like a Kristi Noem dog.
I want to know where they got this earlier video. Did someone post it on Facebook or TikTok?
ICE has a cadre of videographers among them. They have much better videos of the murders and brutality than a bunch of shaky iPhone stuff taken by those being beaten and killed.
Dr Stacey Patton has an essay on this today as well, FYI.
And it's a scorcher, and I'm glad you read it

Called it golf ‘cause all the other 4-letter words were taken.
Robin Williams did a great job describing golf.

If so, I hope that's his day off.
wellllll, close, perhaps??
Oh, dang!
It's showing at the Kennedy Center tonight, LMAO!
omg
No wonder the National Opera, the Martha Graham company, and Phillip Glass are the most recent artists to NOPE out
That's The Trump and Kennedy Center. Big Daddy always comes first!
Vanky says that’s her job.
Let’s, just for this once, go ahead and keep Kennedy’s name out of it. For tonight, it’s just the Trump Center.

Yup, Avelo Airlines contracted with ICE to fly deportees out of the country, and now their business is utterly fucked.
That's a good point to broadcast far and wide.
