Senator Rosen calling for Noem’s impeachment. More of this, please.
Kristi Noem and her department’s latest attempt to mislead the American public regarding the brutal and unjustified killing of Alex Pretti is deeply shameful, and she must be impeached and removed from office immediately.

> "system crash” deleted nearly two weeks of surveillance footage from inside the facility

that's not how anything works they're lying and destroying evidence hope that helps
And what is happening inside ICE detention centers? 404 Media also learned that the federal government claimed that the day after it was sued for allegedly abusing detainees at an ICE detention center, a “system crash” deleted nearly two weeks of surveillance footage from inside the facility.
ICE Says Critical Evidence In Abuse Case Was Lost In 'System Crash' a Day After It Was Sued
The government also said "we don't have resources" to retain all footage and that plaintiffs could supply "endless hard drives that we could save things to."

holy crap...
I'm a journalist and attorney, not an activist, so I've no answers on what Americans should do right now.

I only know this: Donald Trump is attempting to incite a civil war so he can cancel all future elections, and he will keep executing citizens until that outcome is achieved.

Alt-text: Two side by side photos. On the left is a black and white photo of a Nazi soldier pointing a gun at the head of a man sitting on the ground. On the right is a frame from a video showing a masked ICE agent pointing a gun at Alex Pretti who is kneeling on the ground. Same exact posture.

Sadly for everyone in this administration, pretending history doesn’t happen doesn’t mean it didn’t. We *will* remember.
Signs about the history of slavery in the U.S. and the 9 people George Washington enslaved are being removed right now at the President’s House Site in Philadelphia, across from Independence Hall, months after the Trump administration threatend to do so.

How far we have not come in 250 years.

Reanationalise!!!!
I've written to Environment Secretary Emma Reynolds about the new water white paper 👇

Government must step in to remove Thames Water and South East Water's licences

The privatised water companies have failed and they must be ALLOWED TO FAIL

weownit.org.uk/news/open-le...
Open letter: private water companies must be allowed to fail
Open letter: response to the government's white paper on water. There is no market in water, it is a natural monopoly. The public understands this and is sick of broken promises.

Everyone. We either slide into WWW3 and rise of the drones OR we step back, stop fighting, talk, talk. Or will the sick ones keep hoarding wealth, power and spread deceit ? Will the world split into slaves and wealthy? Is the world already split ?
My latest on failure in both the US & UK to acknowledge what we are seeing with our eyes & hearing with our ears.

The old world is over. And we have to act fast.
