Note, though, there's a way to break out of this.

To point out that the REAL issue is the rules of engagement that Stephen Milller told Greg Bovino to use.

You get rid of those rules of engagement you get rid of about 75% of the assaults on peaceful people.
I don't think this is going to work

I don't think they're going to win the propaganda war over an ICE agent murdering a women in cold blood, because it's not possible to buy their lies if you aren't one of them

but what a bleak world we live in that this is a narrative struggle rather than justice

Look, I don't know, but this slowly-reproducing and highly endangered species just had twins in the wild. Dian Fossey thought mountain gorillas would be extinct by 2000.

So there's that. 🧪

The twins were born to a 22-year-old female named Mafuko, who lost her own mother to armed individuals. The extremely endangered species currently numbers at just over 1,000.

The transformation of ICE into a type of national police force, backed, in some cases, by soldiers from the National Guard, has been covered as immigration story—but these forces are reshaping democracy for all of us.

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

When you succumb to the cynicism, you are helping Trump. He wants you to think that all is lost, that he is all powerful, and that there is nothing we can do.

The fight for democracy is hard, but it is worth having. We have shown we can stand tall. We have shown we can win.
Many of you have become drama-addicted doomers, and you seem to think it's important for the rest of us to join you.

Yes, things are bad. But change is within our power. Grow up. Act like sober, responsible adults in a democracy instead of cynical, all-is-lost teenagers.

Now get off my lawn.

Prison guards are flocking to ICE jobs and frankly this makes sense. Those of us who have been anti-prison organizers for decades have been saying that fascism already existed within prisons/jails. Our best teachers for how to survive fascism are incarcerated people.

Absolutely horrific details about an ICE shooting in Minneapolis.

A witness says a woman was trying to drive away from an ICE operation and the ICE agent "reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three, four times."

Bovino was there.

She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.
