I'm with @pearlmania500.bsky.social on this, and just as angry—as we all should be. A wife and mom was murdered by an incompetent ICE agent, and the first thing the government does is vilify her—labeling her a domestic terrorist.
Do not let this go, America.

As the mom of a five-year-old reading this and imagining what this family is going through made me physically ill. Unimaginable evil is being perpetrated before our eyes and with our tax dollars.
