No Shit.
This "War on Terror" apparatus is funded by Republicans AND Democrats.
People of color have warned and warned and warned for YEARS.
We were seen as too leftist, extreme, unpragmatic, bla bla bla.

Can we please protect the children?
I remember being a kid and being told to go back to Africa. And that was before Trump. Kids right now have it so much worse. The cruelty is louder, more public, more sanctioned.
Shelter the little ones. No one deserves this treatment, but especially not them.

Sunday, at least 7 ICE agents stormed a house and took an elderly man out into the freezing cold, wearing only his underwear and a blanket.
He was a member of the Hmong community, which came to the area from Laos in the 1970s after siding with the US in the Vietnam War.
Notice the suppressors

Kamala Harris was right about literally everything.
Trump had an enemies list, she had a to-do list.
It's sad to think where we are right now as a country compared to where we could have been had more people not bought into the con.

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.
