We are all drowning in a pool of systemic propaganda so I understand why the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti feel esp shocking and I think it is important to do the internal work of asking yourself, if this applies to you, why the deaths of immigrants/Black folks don't shock in the same way

I know you all love The Fartlantic today because of that one article but please try to remember that they played an instrumental role in the rise of fascism in the US and you do not, in fact, have to hand it to them.

Marimar Martinez was the first US citizen shot by ICE.

They claimed she was a terrorist. Said she was brandishing a weapon.

They lied. Video footage exonerated her and showed the ICE agent shot her five times.

He bragged to other agents “five shots, 7 holes”.

A wide grin was plastered on Marimar Martinez’s face Thursday as she thanked her attorneys outside an Illinois courtroom and told reporters, “I’m just blessed. I’m happy.”

Remember when our nurses were heroes.?

Remember when we honored people who took care of vets ?

They just shot someone who probably was there to take care of people

Welcome to America where we “look for the helpers”

To shoot them

I hope he knew how much he was loved
Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

People already working hard to prove how perfect Alex Pretti was. To show he didn't "deserve" to be killed. But it's a trap folks. You're only feeding into a dynamic where people who are considered lesser get no protection. You don't have to be an Alex Pretti to deserve to live.

“Every political victory is a choice” . And this man has chosen to go to work.
On day 8 of our Administration, @governor.ny.gov and I announced the beginning of universal childcare in NYC. No longer will New Yorkers be forced to choose between starting a family and continuing to live in the city they love. This only happened because of you.

I know "Die Hard" is y'all's favorite Christmas movie but there's another film that has a lot of elements of "Die Hard" PLUS a much more involved Christmas message and musings on the "invisibility" of homelessness. This Christmas, check out "Tokyo Godfathers."
