If this person who burned a synagogue had cited the Quran in defending their antisemitic attack, we'd be reading dozens of news stories about Islamic extremism. Since he cited the Book of Revelation, the media really needs to connect this to extremist forms of white Christianity.
The FBI says that a suspect in the arson fire at the Beth Israel Congregation in Jackson, Mississippi, admitted to targeting the institution because of its “Jewish ties.”

Court documents say 19-year-old Stephen Spencer Pittman called the historic house of worship "a synagogue of Satan."

Well, would you look at this? I spotted a P-8 Poseidon — which is a modified 737 airframe — with no reg # coming out of dark mode in flight data I posted the day of the first boat strike.

There is a longer version of the video of a kidnapping of this kid - there really is no other word for it - here. As he is being shoved into the DHS vehicle he breaks down. At about the 2 minute mark you hear a DHS agent say "wow - fucking child" sarcastically.

Journalists often go on hand-fed ride-alongs with agents.

Seldom, though, do they get into the cars of everyday people protecting their communities from those same agents.

We just did exactly that, in ICE-occupied Minneapolis:

I know that it's hard to keep track of all the ways Trump violates the law.

In Connecticut, he illegally cancelled an offshore wind project that is 80% built, citing imaginary "national security justifications" that they refuse to brief us on because...THEY DON'T EXIST.

ICE just indiscriminately stopped a citizen at a bus stop in front of the co-op. If this is how they treat the President of the Minneapolis City Council who is legally observing, just think of what they’re doing to everyone else in our City.

I can’t emphasize enough how shocked my out of state friends and family are when I tell them what has happened in Minneapolis since Renee Good’s murder.

Without reliable media, most not-chronically-online people are completely in the dark. If you want to help Minnesota, tell people what you know.

The reason they were so riled up is because this had happened first:

There’s reports that there will be 1,000 more agents coming to our city. We need that same surge in residents out patrolling our streets. Even if you can’t patrol, come work from a coffee shop on one of cultural corridors so you can be there to show up for our neighbors.

They handed out cards bearing the names of people killed by ICE in this second Trump era.

There are a lot of cards.

America is now at the heavily armed secret police doing warrantless door-to-door house raids in search of undesirable ethnicities and/or political dissenters stage. The difference from well known historical cases is down to scale.
A video of ICE agents conducting door-to-door searches today in Minneapolis

The homeowner requests a warrant repeatedly, is told they don't require one, then is told they're getting it, then the agents storm in anyway

They also point a taser at her to try and disrupt filming

You’ll notice that the American state media have completely ignored the fact that bribe for hire Pam Bondi hasn’t released a single Epstein file in 2026. They have deliberately and continuously failed humanity.
