I am so sickened and angry. Reminiscent of the way they handled protests in the 60s of Vietnam. We are in uncertain times and none of us are safe, not even Maga.
Two queer women with a 6 year old in school today stopped to film ICE and for their bravery ICE agents murdered one before the other’s eyes. The grief in the survivor’s voice is a knife to the gut. Destroying people and their bonds is what ICE has always done.
NEWS: In a heartbreaking video, after ICE shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis, a woman who was in the same SUV cries out: “They killed my wife. I don’t know what to do."
“We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head,” the distraught woman sobs.

As a veteran of the United States, Air Force, I swore to defend the constitution from enemies foreign and domestic. The domestic enemy, we have sits in the White House and are some members of Congress. I would not follow an unconstitutional and unlawful law or action.
"Officers swear to 'support and defend' the Constitution; to 'bear true faith and allegiance' to it....What they do not swear to do is equally important: Officers make no promise to obey the president and the officers above them."
What Americans Should Understand About the Military Disobeying Illegal Orders
And why it matters there are two military oaths.

Oregon National Guard General Alan Gronewold:
“Yes, if you give an order that directs a soldier to commit a criminal act, they should disobey that."
The only person who thinks the contrary is a 34-count convicted felon, who wouldn't pay himself for the crime committed by the soldier.

Carl Sagan’s phrase “We are made of star stuff” reflects that the elements in our bodies—like oxygen, carbon, and iron—were formed in stars. When stars exploded, they scattered these elements across the universe, eventually forming planets, life, and us.

You know who else had that same energy? Slave catchers in the late 17th and 18th centuries.

The Rules Committee meets at 1 AM on Tuesday night/ Wednesday morning to ram through this disastrous bill. Why? Because they don't want you to see them ripping healthcare from millions of Americans.
You do not hold a hearing for a bill at 1 AM unless you're completely ashamed of it.
