A leaked DoJ memo calls for prosecutors to charge people who film ICE with “domestic terrorism”
They don’t want their atrocities documented.
They don’t want a historical record.
They don’t want the world to know.
That’s why we have to keep filming. Keep speaking out.

Trump says the Epstein Files are a Democrat hoax, but only Democrats were guilty of crimes with Epstein.
He says the DOJ should stop releasing files and everyone should stop talking about it, but also the DOJ should charge Democrats with crimes.
This is how you talk when you’re guilty as hell.

1. The year in which cops killed the most people? During Biden years.
2. Mass incarceration (ramped up under Reagan using Biden policies) was finally turning around and decreasing under Bush, Obama, and Trump. Under Biden, it increased again.
