A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

Renee Good should still be here.
She was a beloved child of God, with inherent value and infinite worth.
She was murdered by her own government in broad daylight in what is supposed to be the greatest democracy on the planet.

Give me a fucking break.
You would think a 79 year old man would know the difference between receiving an award that is deserved and taking an award by extortion.
The latter is the opposite of "an honor."

This is absolutely what happened.
He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

Naming a police officer is not doxxing. We aren’t supposed to have secret police in America.

There is video of the shooting of a woman by ICE in Minneapolis circulating that shows an ICE agent repeatedly shooting her at point blank range while she tries to drive off. There was no obvious threat to any ICE agent.

A woman is dead in Minneapolis after ICE agents opened fire.
I don’t need to be a use-of-force expert to say this plainly: she did not need to be shot.
And no fair investigation is coming from the same system that wanted this confrontation in the first place.

TAPPER: Can you rule out the US is going to take Greenland by force?
MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO
T: So force is on the table?
M: Nobody is gonna fight the US militarily over future of Greenland

It's nice that a few Republicans are waking up, but 2 things on that: 1) too little too late. 2) the vast majority of GOP officials still have no interest in doing the right thing because they are getting rich within the enormous corruption machine that is this admin.
