Not until the end of Trump’s second term. Sorry, you have to settle for mediocre with the rest of us until then.

Assuming he wins Biden should write that killer cop a thank you card since that’s what going to flip the result.

DEA authorized to surveillance on protestors.

Pro life constitutionalists have a funny way of showing it.

Meanwhile cops still out here abusing people.

I did see someone apparently got illegally arrested and protestors swarmed police car and broke them out. If true, that’s the most justice we’ve seen all week.

The DEA? What the ****?

Obviously it's awful that surveillance on protestors is a thing, but why on earth should the DEA be involved?

Meme for Birdman that he ought to appreciate given his usual stance on liberals but won't at all due to his defense of burning things.

Can it be that they are just having a hard time finding personnel that are willing to do their dirty work? There are ****ing prison guards on the streets of DC right now.

The DEA have plenty of experience being at war with Americans so seems a natural fit.

Hey guys, I know it’s a super bummer police are committing what would be considered war crimes, but do you really want to lose another Target?

Chauvin upgraded to 2nd degree murder, and "lesser charges" coming for the other 3.

And then the police rioted. Shooting flashbangs into a sea of umbrellas to disperse them.

A police riot. Actively suppressing the first amendment rights of thousands.

What say you?

I dunno about anyone else but I have really enjoyed having some of the people I follow on Twitter be first amendment literalists on protest (protest anywhere anytime) while also working relentlessly to limit all kinds of speech they don’t like.

You need to work on your meme game. Also assuming that's supposed to be a well off black guy I think many would say he isn't oppressed in some of the standard ways.
