CBS/Paramount/Skydance Media or whatever the fuck they are now already set a precedent by paying the bronzed up idiot 16 million dollars over his frivolous whines about editing down a Kamala Harris interview that had no bearing on anything.

Chicago Tribune: Chicago woman dragged out of her car after colliding with ICE demands accountability
"As Figueroa tried to drive through the 1600 block of West Hubbard Street on Friday, Oct. 10, an unmarked vehicle driven by federal agents collided with Figueroa’s as it tried to speed away from a hostile crowd, multiple videos reviewed by the Tribune show.
Seconds after the crash, agents abruptly stopped their vehicle and exited with weapons in hand pointing at Figueroa, a U.S citizen. Agents then forcibly opened her door and pulled her out of the vehicle by her legs without identifying themselves, presenting a warrant or informing her that she was under arrest. As bystanders yelled, “You hit her! We have it on video!” agents ignored the crowd and forced Figueroa into a red minivan and drove away. ...
The Department of Homeland Security later released a statement claiming that Figueroa was at fault, saying “she crashed into an unmarked government vehicle and violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers.”

The Broadview ICE processing center has been noted for its violent clashes between federal agents and protesters — with ICE agents deploying aggressive tactics at demonstrators. https://theintercept.com/2025/10/29/kat-abughazaleh-ice-protest-broadview-trump-doj/
As has been demonstrated over and over, billionaires, foreign & domestic, know that their most reliable voting bloc are self-harming bigots.
Nazi bigots. Evangelical bigots. Xenophobic bigots. Misogynistic bigots. Homophobic bigots. Transphobic bigots. Islamophobic bigots. Antisemitic bigots. "Conservative" bigots. Climate denying bigots. Election denying bigots. Science denying bigots. Authoritarian bigots.

It's another example of the president’s ongoing cognitive decline caught on video. Trump appeared to forget where he was going and left the Japanese Prime Minister behind as she watched him, clearly confused. https://trib.al/ER11vJ3
“If he doesn’t like war, he’s not doing a good job of showing it right now.” @billmaher clowned on his own show for trying to frame Trump as a peace President as he bombs boats with no evidence, brings us to the brink with Venezuela, etc (H/T @bluegeorgia.bsky.social )
The use of #TearGas has persisted in recent days despite a #CourtOrder forbidding officers from using #ChemicalAgents against #demonstrators & #journalists unless they pose a safety threat. Last week, Gregory #Bovino, the #BorderPatrol official leading the #Chicago operation, was videotaped throwing a tear-gas canister into a crowd. In another incident, #immigration officers deployed tear gas as #families were walking to a Halloween parade.
@Nonilex Has anyone told the MAGAts (maga traitors) in the thugocracy that they wouldn't be accused of sketchy behavior if they abstained from sketchy behavior? Or, is that too difficult a concept for them to grasp?

Jeffries: "Why have House Republicans remained on a taxpayer funded vacation for the last 6 weeks? Of course they are unserious as it relates to reopening the government. Why has Donald Trump spent more time on the golf course, including this weekend, than he has talking to Democrats on Capitol Hill, who represent half of the country?"

Does anyone believe anything these ICEholes spew? I'd take the word of a Nigerian prince sending me $10 million before I'd believe anything the thugocracy vomits out.
The letter says that thus far the admin "has selectively shared what has at times been contradictory information" with some members, "while excluding others."
Earlier Fri, the Republican chair & ranking Democrat on the #Senate #ArmedServices Cmte released a pair of letters sent to #Hegseth written in late Sept & early Oct requesting DOD's legal rationale for the strikes & a list of drug cartels the #Trump admin has designated terrorist orgs in its justification for use of #military force.
