Also, I wonder if people get how strange it is that Bovino keeps showing up on all these raids.
He's one of the top-most CBP officials there is. It'd be like if NYPD Commish Tisch kept putting on body armor to do small drug raids in NYC all the time.
Lays bare that this is all about spectacle.

I always thought the term "cosplaying" was overused until ICE/CBP started showing up everywhere. Look at this guy, does he think it's Fallujah? (It's a high school in Minneapolis).

Hell yeah. If you have a Dem rep or senator who isn’t saying this, ask them why not. Dems are in the minority but Repubs will need Dem votes for a new funding bill at the end of the month. Schumer won’t lead, but he will follow with sufficient pressure from his caucus.
The Trump Admin continues to lie about ICE's killing of a 37-year-old mom — claiming she engaged in ‘domestic terrorism.”
They have given ICE a massive budget and allowed them to act with impunity.
I cannot & will NOT support any funding for Trump’s ICE’s operations.

Yep. MPD officer once pulled a gun on me in my own driveway in Powderhorn as dispatcher on the phone told me not to put my phone down. Officer with gun yelled ‘DROP WHATS IN YOUR HAND’.
One thing I didn't fully appreciate until I sat on a jury and reviewed body cam footage for myself, is how cops yell contradictory instructions at people like "Don't move" "Put your hands up" "Get the fuck out of here" "Keep your hands where I can see them" etc. all screamed at your face with guns

If Renee Nicole Good was a childless foreign national, its still wasn't OK for a federal employee to straight up execute her. Begging everyone to not concede one inch of ground to this toxic framing.
