I have to say, as a man with two mothers, I find the derisive deployment of language like "lesbian" and "lover" by those on the far right who are trying to justify Renee Good's death particularly disgusting and dehumanizing. These women. They are wives. They are a family. That's it.

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

Bothsidering Good’s murder by saying “our job now is … to find ways to LIVE with people who are genuinely different than us” has got to be one of the most nakedly tonedeaf-at-best, cynical-bad-faith-at-worst framings possible.

America has become ideologically like abandoned but deadly minefields. It will / would(?) take so much time to make this place better.
Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons: "Anytime someone uses a 4,000 vehicle to assault or impede or even to escape a law enforcement custody, that's a deadly force situation. That is a domestic terrorist incident."

I’ve heard from multiple friends today about daycares being raided and parents being ripped out of cars (in one case with a child left behind in the backseat). Grim times here.
The situation in Minneapolis is insane: seemingly many large convoys of heavily armed masked men, blocking off streets at random, grabbing people nearly at random, racing around the city with no discernible plan or aim. Under attack by our own government the day after it killed someone

Great work!
Clear-eyed, fact-based, and written to explain to normies. No “both sidesing.” No “Trump officials disagree.”
No gaslighting that what we can see with our own eyes might not be true.
This is journalism. Well done, @people.com

The reason you have congressional hearings is so

A Minneapolis pastor of an MCC church — a denomination rooted in LGBTQ equality — recounts being detained by ICE.
Says an ICE officer walked up to him as he was chanting “we are not afraid.”
The agent, he says, raised his gun and said “are you afraid now?”

Defaming a murdered woman and shrugging off her death with a lie is about as evil as it gets and no journalist who gets within shouting distance of this vicious troll should let him have a moment's peace about it.

It's time to state clearly that if MAGA and Republicans can't condemn any part of this shooting, continue to blame the victim for it, and even hint that it's a just outcome that others "deserve," that's a crossing of the line that the rest of us won't ever be able to forget.

How do they continue to find ways to be more foul? Isn’t there a limit to human foulness, at least in these kind of numbers?

Remember how anytime anything bad happened under a democratic president the media would spend two weeks asking why he wasn’t doing more to “unite the country?”
