And those are just the charged crimes. They’re committing uncharged crimes daily right now.
This remarkable fact caught my eye in a piece that I don't otherwise agree with "One remarkable fact is that today.. customs officers and Border Patrol agents have committed crimes at a per capita rate that is greater than the crime rate for people who immigrated here illegally" tinyurl.com/2bkkc22b

Corporate profits have hit record highs.
CEOs are paid 280x as much as a typical worker.
We're subsidizing huge corporations that pay lousy wages through food stamps and Medicaid.
But instead of cracking down on corporate greed, Republicans want to punish the working poor.

Maria Santay, a U.S. citizen and community observer, live-streamed masked ICE agents detaining her after they boxed in her car from all sides and smashed her window. Local police showed up and did nothing.
She was denied access to a restroom, and forced to pee in the parking lot while handcuffed.

If a federal agent tries to assault you, just scream "JOE BIDEN STOLE THE 2020 ELECTION"
It's apparently like an Uno Reverse card. Now *you* get to assault the cops without any penalty. Beat them with a flagpole, use mace or bear spray on them, whatever.
I'm sure the lawyers here will back me up.

Angus: Canada is reconsidering that relationship with China. Why? Because we can no longer trust the US.
And we know that we have 150, maybe more, Canadians in custody at ICE detention centers. We had two Canadians under Chinese custody and it caused a huge outcry. We now have over 150 in the US.

I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.
Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

This is by far the best breakdown of the culture that Tyler Robinson was deeply involved in. The media and the government are taking things at face value, either because they don't understand the lingo or because it's just convenient for their narrative.
