Unlike the raid on John Bolton, the targeting of Omar has elicited zero condemnation from NYT, WSJ, and Washington Post.

    The media has been captured by right wing activist billionaires. At best you get centrists not complying with the narrative. We need to break up media monopolies and stop allowing mergers.

    Americans are on their own. Midterms are make or break. We have to save us from the pedophile king. If you are maga and reading this you are a traitor to the constitution and a pedophile by proxy. Dumb fucks.

    no outrage, and they’ll all have faked surprise and horror on their faces when they get sent to report on the 2026 riots in minneapolis and the aftermath of the army coming in and leveling the city.

    Nancy Pelosi and other Democratic leadership helped pave the way for this islamophobic, racists, anti-feminist attack on Ilhan Omar. Nancy Pelosi claimed Ilhan Omar anti-semetic, when Omar criticized AIPAC and their outsized role in US elections. That was a multi-week news cycle liberals will almost certainly have memory holed by this time. Democratic leadership floated an effort to censure and paved the way for this attack, and to normalize these kinds of attacks of women in power, of brown people in power, of immigrants in power.

    Liberals pave the ground for the role out of fascism.

        I’m just tired of being told by liberals who want to wash their hands that their politics play no role in this.

        You don’t get fascism without liberal parties playing nice with fascists. Normally this is when I’d call ol boy @PugJesus@piefed.social in to back me up with the historical context, because we already went through and dealt with this.

        Fascism doesn’t happen when you have a lib or socdem party who resists it at any cost. Fascism happens when, over time, the corporate party thinks they can place nice with the fascist party. The libs end up focusing on sabatoging the socialist parties because they see fascists as better partners to capital. And inevitably the libs get run over once the fascist have been allowed to cultivate enough power.

    Trump isn’t targeting Ilhan Omar.

    That investigation was started during the Biden administration.

        Apparently there was enough evidence for a democrat judge to approve a search warrant.

        And keep in mind that that judge most likely gave that search warrant request an enormous amount of scrutiny simply because it was a sitting member of Congress.

          Evidence based on immigration filings from decades ago…

          It doesn’t matter what judge they found, it’s still a fishing expedition that should have never been allowed.

          Don’t play team sports with people’s lives in service of fascism.

      Literally can’t even read the headline you posted, lmao.

      The inquiry, initiated by the U.S. attorney’s office in Washington, appears to have stalled for lack of evidence

        Look at his history and profile, he is a lost case with zero critical thinking skills.

        HurDur-immigration papers, HurDur-her dad finances.

        The guy have no idea what a smear campaign means, how AIPAC pr operates or how manipulated news works.

        he is a product of a low effort manufactured conscience.

      But Trump is going after her finances, no? He’s saying that her dad made fraudulent claims on her immigration papers.

        That’s how investigations work.

        If you see in that article, it stalled for a while as they looked deeper into the paper trail and as more information come to light, investigations can go in more than one direction.
