This is how authoritarian narratives work you smear the victim, praise the armed agent, and ignore the killing. No video justifies an execution. No insult erases due process. This is propaganda, not accountability.

Last year Congress blew a $1.1 billion hole in DC's budget. Now they're trying to do it again.

Two new bills are attempting to take away nearly $700M of DC's own local tax money. They're anti-democratic, anti-family, and wrong.

Here are four ways you can help stop them: freedcproject.org/money

Gov. Josh Shapiro: "It is not the job of state police to carry out federal immigration operations. If the federal government believes that is a mission worth pursuing, then you have to do it within the bounds of our Constitution…Do it with proper policing tactics."

I needed this warning and call to action from Dr. Ibram X. Kendi. You might, too. (click through to read two-part thread.)
For the regime to describe the ICE agent’s brutal murder of a woman in Minneapolis as defensive is for the regime to enshrine ICE’s total immunity as it expands its killing, kidnapping, terrorizing, and caging of us.

Right. The point is not “it matters extra because it’s a citizen,” the point is “we either hang together or we will all hang separately.”
i think it is ok to reiterate that the victim as a us citizen. yes, noncitizens are equally entitled to human rights. but also, it's important to illustrate how ice isn't about immigration at all

John Miller: If you're confronted by a moving vehicle that could be a threat to you, get out of the way. I'm reading to you from DHS policy; 'DHS law enforcement officers are prohibited from discharging firearms at the operator of a moving vehicle or other conveyance.'

The fact that Megyn Kelly minimized raping 15 year olds and wasn't immediately canceled from every platform, including @siriusxmprog.bsky.social and YouTube, tells you EVERYTHING that is wrong with right wing media and this country in general.

The federal government’s extreme anti-immigrant agenda is putting people’s lives at risk – both in our communities and in detention.

This must end.
