So when authorities say “she tried to run over an officer,” that is not a neutral description. It is a claim of intent that can be used to justify lethal force after the fact.

When the state kills first and invents the threat afterward, it is not policing, it is death squad behavior. /end

I can guarantee all the MAGAs shamelessly dehumanizing the woman ICE murdered by saying "she should have listened" have an entire social media history defending Ashlee Babbit for refusing to listen to a police officer as she violently stormed the Capitol to commit insurrection. Disgusting hypocrisy.

This seems significant: not a FORMER DHS official, but a SENIOR (current) one saying the officer who fired acted counter to training.

This is not an admin that admits mistakes. And they are hanging this guy out to dry on Day One.

I think they know this is bad. Really bad.

Do you remember during the election, when it was “pet-eating” Haitians who were “destroying middle America”?

And now the blame has suddenly shifted to “daycare-defrauding” Somalis?

What could Haitians and Somalis possibly have in common that might lead Republicans to target them, I wonder

Crockett: "Everyone wants to talk about how Maduro was illegitimate. As we sit here on January 6, I do want to be clear: somebody else was trying to be a Maduro of the United States. Somebody else wanted to do the exact same thing. The difference is Maduro was successful."

The president of Venezuela must be held legally accountable for his crimes, which the Supreme Court forbids to happen for the president of the US, who recently pardoned the president of Honduras for similar crimes.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

Unless I'm missing something, and I'm pretty sure I'm not, Twitter's AI is cranking out CSAM deepfakes, Elon Musk is making jokes about it, and nobody is doing anything to stop it or hold anyone at Twitter accountable for its creation and distribution.

Local CBS Minnesota story proves America’s been duped by right wing propagandist Nick Shirley & his “fraud” story about ABC Learning Center.

I’m sure MAGAs will still find a way to deny the facts, because they don’t care about justice, they care about white supremacy.

Black father kills a man who tried to rape his daughter & media posts his solo mug shot.

White father murders his wife, shoots step child, kills himself, & media posts his smiling picture with family.

Make no mistake, this is how media normalizes white supremacy & extremism. We must reject it.

The Venn diagram of those screaming about “unlimited guns to prevent Govt tyranny” & those screaming “THIS IS WHAT I VOTED FOR” as they watch Govt round up brown people & throw them in gulags is a perfect circle.

It was never about “opposing tyranny,” it was always about advancing white supremacy.

You lost the plot when you became more concerned with imagery than with the actual living babies and children who, through no fault of their own, are being fed into an immigration grinder by adults. And the bothsiding framing by NPR is not helping.
