When a law enforcement officer aims a weapon at someone wielding a camera, it is procedurally unsound and unprofessional in two fundamental ways:
1) It is disproportional to any actual threat and is instead an unprovoked threat against a citizen.
2) The officer is a crazed, untrained asshole.

Call me a libtard but this doesn't seem like something that should be happening in the United States of America.

House Republicans aren’t even in DC as the Trump Shutdown wreaks havoc on everyday people. We’re pushing vulnerable GOP representatives to call for a bipartisan deal to save healthcare. If you’re represented by a Republican, demand that they get back to work and end this government shutdown. 👇

In 100 days, we’ve changed the political weather.
We show up because this is how we build a nationwide, unified opposition. And 100 days in, that opposition is far more unified and…well…oppositional than it was in January.
Take a step back and look at how the political winds have shifted.

This is NOT OK! This is WHY so many of us are up in arms over what happened to Kilmar Garcia. Guilt and innocence are established in court. This is NOT how to treat ANYONE.
ICE has begun raiding the homes of American citizens. A widely shared story out of Oklahoma describes a disturbing incident where a woman and her children were dragged into their yard half-naked. Reports are mounting across multiple states of agents targeting the wrong properties.

Republicans know that cuts to cancer research are deeply unpopular. They know the public is horrified by Elon Musk firing air traffic controllers while he gives FAA contracts to himself. They know most Americans hate the GOP's plans to gut Medicaid to pay for another round of giveaways to the rich.

TDS or Trump Derangement Syndrome may be the epitome of MAGAt projection onto their opposition. They are all the things they claim to be against and so project their behaviors onto the non-MAGAts. I contend that TDS is what makes them cultists. It is not an affliction of non-MAGAts.

Rather than a dearth of pushback against Trump's fascism, as many overly focused on the State of the Union complained, there was instead a flood of it this week. You just had to know where to look.
