The Painful Truth of Exactly How ICE’s New Shock Gloves Work

The Painful Truth of Exactly How ICE’s New Shock Gloves Work

ICE is spending millions on shock gloves designed to overpower subjects through intense, localized pain.

The worst-trained, most unhinged federal agency is getting $20 MILLION in electric-shock gloves…but can’t get its body cameras to work?

This is nothing but an attempt to disguise their inhumane tactics.

Cruelty is cruelty. Plain and simple. - Jasmine Crockett

As If The Navy Doesn't Have Enough Problems...
The Navy could end up spending billions to satisfy a new demand from President Donald Trump to rip out the high-tech electromagnetic systems it uses to launch jets from its newest class of aircraft carriers in favor of older, steam-powered catapults...“I’ve launched off the front of aircraft carriers hundreds of times, have a Master’s degree in aeronautical engineering, and am a test pilot and even I wouldn’t suggest to the Navy how to engineer specific systems on its ships. Donald Trump should stick to what he knows best — ballrooms, bankruptcy, and bullsh*t,” Sen. Mark Kelly wrote on X.

Trump says Naval deployments in the Middle East are ‘not nearly long enough’ as he boards a flight to a Long Island LE rally (Nassau cops=MAGA DB’s) then spends weekend luxuriating at his private 500 acre golf course in NJ. No one understands sacrifice like the Trump clan. - Noel Casler

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recently approved the two unnamed chemicals for use in the semiconductor industry even though it also found potential risks to workers and the general public, the groups alleged. The chemicals’ names were redacted in attached EPA documents.

Trump boarded secret Turkey flight via catering truck due to Iran threat, reports say

U.S. President Donald Trump took a secret military flight from Turkey last month in an operation that involved him being moved between aircraft in a catering truck, an extraordinary deception prompted by an Iranian assassination threat, the Washington Post reported.

That has happened on our watch ... this Board of Peace in the Middle East? That's so he can get a piece of the Middle East."

David Hearn Is Amassing Evidence For His Lawsuit Against Trump

President Donald Trump’s Department of Justice threw in the towel in its attempt to prosecute David Hearn for allegedly vandalizing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, but the White House is now asking them to try again, according to a new report by The Wall Street Journal.

White House officials are now asking the DOJ to “consider a new prosecution” of Hearn, citing sources “familiar with the discussions,”

He's Gonna Send In The National Guard To Intimidate Midterm Voters, Isn't He? Or ICE!

President Donald Trump appeared to hint Tuesday that some sort of action will be taken to enforce voting restrictions during the midterm elections.

For much of Trump’s second term, he has repeatedly urged Congress to pass the SAVE America Act, a legislative package introducing sweeping changes to the country’s voting process.

Chief among those changes is requiring voters to present identification at polling places. Trump and his allies have insisted the bill was necessary to prevent voter fraud, but critics have argued the bill will only suppress voting rights.

Abdul El-Sayed on Trump: “He’s busy trying to figure out the colors on the drapes or fix the reflecting pool which he can’t even do. At the end of the day I am everything he fears. We are going to stand up to him. We are going to take him on. We are going to subpoena all of his officials. We are going to fight for the affordability that he doesn’t even care to fight for”

Video Gamers Hired As Air Traffic Controllers. This May Work or Nah?
Regardless of your age, chances are you know at least one person in your life who loves video games, and a recent campaign by the U.S. Department of Transportation shows that those skills might be useful at your nearest airport...The secretary also highlighted that this campaign featured “the most streamlined hiring process,” adding that more than 2,000 “best & brightest” candidates are in the hiring pipeline.

While it might seem outlandish to some to compare video games with a very important (and often very stressful) job, this idea didn’t just come to the FAA on a whim, but rather from its own employees

Without freedom of speech we wouldn't know who the idiots are.
