The aggregation of 22 separate federal agencies, most of which had nothing to do with each other, into DHS was the second most corrosive post-9/11 action taken (after the passing of the PATRIOT Act) and I will die on that hill
Amid growing calls for the abolition of ICE, Rep. Delia Ramirez is calling for the entire DHS to be dismantled. Highlighting how much experience the officers who killed Renee Good and Alex Pretti had, Ramirez said, “DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity.”
House Democrat Says Abolishing ICE Isn’t Enough — DHS Must Go, Too
“The problem isn’t ‘training.’ DHS was built to violate our rights,” said Rep. Delia C. Ramirez.

Historically, we've focused a lot on the brutal actions of authoritarian regimes, and today is no different.
Using imagery online of the shooting by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, we’ve created an animated sequence which highlights the approximate positioning of officers and vehicles at the scene. The red dot represents the agent who fired the shots. Yellow dots are other agents who arrived at the scene.

If you've ever accidentally come across any far right-wing ideology in your life, there is a thing that is often mentioned about accelerationism, or reaching some kind of conflict they desire by any means necessary.

And often, it involves sacrificing their own.
They're literally creating lists of people making jokes about Charlie Kirk and the whole time they should be looking inward at the people in their party who are killing each other. Fucking shameful.

“Obstruct, obstruct, obstruct.”
“I’m really fed up with Democratic leadership.”
“I don’t want to see @schumer.senate.gov sending another strongly-worded letter.“
“I want alternate hearings; profiling a person who’s dying because their Medicaid has been stripped away.”

Yes! All of this.
