⬇️ They are absolutely being trained to do this, and then to claim that they are being threatened and therefore justified in using deadly force. This is almost certainly coming down from Stephen Miller
Something that needs to be elevated is that ICE agents have been instructed to threaten and illegally detain legal observers. It's a criminal conspiracy to deprive Americans of their 1st & 4th amendment rights.
Renee Good isn't the only victim ICE has targeted and won't be the last.

I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

Trump’s ICE detentions were never about making us safer — just whiter!
NEW: Data released by ICE shows that virtually the entire growth of detention in the last few months has been among people with no criminal record at all - no prior convictions (no matter how minor) and no pending criminal charges.

“By proceeding without any semblance of international legitimacy, valid legal authority or domestic endorsement, Mr. Trump risks providing justification for authoritarians in China, Russia and elsewhere who want to dominate their own neighbors,” wrote the New York Times editorial board.

This is batshit crazy.
Trump is imitating Putin yet again by forcefully and unilaterally invading a foreign country in order to outright steal their natural resources.
And doing it not only in violation of international law but also of the United States Constitution.

The plant isn't needed and was set to retire, saving ratepayers $79million/yr. But Trump's fossil shills want to raise rates and pollution.

All of MAGA world still believes that it was Nancy Pelosi who failed to send the National Guard that day, and no amount of facts, proof, or evidence will convince them otherwise.

Yes, support for conservative ideology has always been about racism, as Thaddeus Stevens and Abraham Lincoln agreed about the founding of the GOP
It's the racism. People bristle at that fact but it's been true since day 1 of Trump, and if we're honest, support for pretty much any conservative ideology has been inseparable from racism for...ever? It may cloak in tax policy and morality on occasion out of convenience, but it's core is racism.

To reinforce their base's anti-science paranoia.
Republicans cut wind power amid rising demand.
Why?
Because their donors get rich – and they do, too – from nuclear energy and fossil fuels.
There's always a reason. But not a good reason.
