A video from inside a Border Patrol vehicle shows agents chasing a US citizen for filming them. The citizen refused to get out when they illegally ordered him to stop. The agents say: "This is great." "This is fun." "He's going to get shot."

Definitely give this a listen to because this speaks to women all over the world! We’re dealing with this here in America for sure so the topic will sound very familiar. Well done!
So i did this #TedX talk in October in Tralee -a different way of communicating for me- it was a nerve-wracking but fascinating experience, & met some wonderfully diverse speakers on the day. Hope it gets more notice for the Irish 🇮🇪 revolutionary women #tedxtralee #speirgorm youtu.be/FLRIKMiJ5Qc?...

"When I picked up my granddaughter from the federal agents, she had a dirty diaper, a bruise on her face, and was developing a rash. She was exhausted and cried… My heart aches knowing this could happen to others, to my kids, or even me, despite being U.S. citizens.”

I call on media to REFUSE the framing pushed by right wing chaos agents like Cernovitch & Rufo on this act of what appears to be political violence. The Democratic former Speaker of the Minnesota House was assasinated along with/her husband. The killers was hunting Dems. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...
Minnesota shooting suspect had a list of dozens of potential Democratic targets, prosecutors say
All of the politicians named in his writing were Democrats, including more than 45 state and federal officials in Minnesota, U.S. Attorney Joseph Thompson said.

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida.
If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

"In these situations, one expects to hear that the shooter was in the midst of a psychotic episode." Instead, he was a seemingly functional, deeply religious family man. That is terrifying.
The Growing Threat of Homegrown Religious Extremism
The alleged Minnesota assassin was known as a ‘deeply religious’ Christian man. That should be an alarm bell for all of us.

(D) Sen. Tim Kaine's resolution on war powers is an important reminder of the constitutional role Congress plays in the declaration of war.
This shouldn't be up for discussion, per the Constitution only Congress has the power to declare war.
