Ilhan Omar: βAs someone who has survived the horrors of war, I know that bombs do not build peace or create stabilityβ
Military strikes will not make us safer; they will inflame tensions & push the region further into chaos β every time we abandon diplomacy, we choose destructionβ
Trump is spending a billion dollars of your money every day in Iran on the most expensive fireworks show in history.
That's a billion dollars per day that could be spent on giving yoiu health care.
βReached by phone Sat., [former Capitol Police officer Harry] Dunn said he was glad, but still pushing for answers β¦ noting that the 2022 federal law stipulates the plaque should be on the west front of the Capitol.
βI never thought honoring police officers would be this controversial,β Dunn said.β
Justice is not a plaque. Holding J6 masterminds and rioters to account to the fullest extent of the law is what these officers deserve - not some 4am installation of a hidden plaque. Anyone clapping themselves on the back is a performative clown. They deserve better and a plaque is not it.
Justice delayed is (not always) justice denied. But itβs long past time to honor the courageous law enforcement officers who defended democracy on January 6.

If what ICE is doing has anything to do with the law, why are they routinely breaking laws, violating the Constitution, violating civil rights, hunting children, taking trophies from their victims, and hurting and killing innocent people?
Head unbowed and baseball cap in white. Total disrespect
Hateful attacks like this are unacceptable.
I have been briefed by the Phoenix Police Chief on the incident and I have asked that Phoenix, Tempe, Mesa, and Chandler increase patrols around local mosques so families can continue to worship safely throughout Ramadan.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is the President of the United States. Happy 250 years of independence. π€¦ββοΈ
There are a lot of posts out there with the close-up visual of Markwayne Mullin on January 6, but this is a better perspective.
Heβs not protecting others; heβs protecting himself and hiding. You can see plenty of people at the entry door, ready to take on the insurrectionists, but not Markwayne.
