Actions have consequences. But for the next four years, I must strive to make *mine* the consequence of *their* actions.
I will probably fail. Often. But the moment demands that I try.

rare to see an american politician speak in these terms and it rocks
“When I speak about making our city more affordable, my vision is not limited to the homes that we live in or the child care that we’re making universal — it’s also a vision where we make it possible for working people to afford lives of joy, of art, of rest, of expression.”

i don’t really think *why* they leaked it matters very much because *what* it shows is far more damning *when viewed by any normal person* than what they *want* it to show, they’re trying to manufacture an alternate reality and it isn’t going to work
In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

The wife remains physically separate from the agent at all times. The agent goes to the driver side window, demands Good get out of the car. She replies she doesn't have to. He demands again; she says she's leaving. She turns the car away from the agent. He shoots her.

Good is in the car. Her hands are visible. She is smiling. Her manner is not confrontational. She assures the agent she has no quarrel with him. The wife is out of the car, filming. She is a little more antagonistic to the agent, but not physically. She encourages him to "go get some lunch."
Worse how, exactly, sir?

Apropos of nothing, but privileges beset responsibilities, and the privilege to exercise the state’s monopoly on the use of legitimate force/violence warrants the highest responsibility of all.

Hard video to watch, but about as close as you can get to conclusively disproving the Trump admin's claims that she deliberately attempted to run down the officer. She even talks nicely with him moments before!
Note also that the officer is focused more on filming her than on anything else.

🚨 NEW VIDEO 👇🏽This puts an end to all the lies. Horrific.
They were having a calm exchange seconds before he murdered Renee Good, and she was barely moving and clearly avoiding him.
Stop the lies.

Something that feels new: I don’t think there’s one single person who actually believes Renee Good was a domestic terrorist. I think every person who claims to, without exception, is consciously and willfully lying. I don’t typically think that.

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.

I actually do think you should watch the video, under one circumstance: if you still don't believe me that the right is motivated by the basest misogyny. If you think ANYONE is exaggerating about what they're like. you absolutely need to watch the video.

She is aggressively trying to turn the wheel AWAY from the ICE agent. It is her very last action. They provoke her, surround her, then kill her in cold blood. I have barely slept since this happened and I don't think I'll ever stop being angry about this.

What’s missing from the discussion about the video is that the movement of the camera suggests that the ICE agent steps into the path of the car as Good makes a three-point turn. The car doesn’t aim at him, he walked into it.

they killed Renee Good because they thought both she and her wife should have been forced to become gender conforming and fuck them or their buddies
again, I'm being crude because it's the truth. you can see the attitude in the sharing of the video. that's why it's "justified" to them.

We have a fundamental right not to be murdered by lawless thugs in broad daylight, and a justice system that fails to secure that right is no justice system at all.

it is *both* that they think every inch a car moves is a threat, *and* they have created this situation by being ultra aggressive with window smashing, *and* that a large number of these officers want a reason to murder people in cold blood
What seems to be happening here is every fed has their paranoia dial cranked up to 11 and every time they see erratic driving behavior they assume murder. This is obviously not a mindset anyone can operate with.
