Historically, we've focused a lot on the brutal actions of authoritarian regimes, and today is no different.
Using imagery online of the shooting by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, we’ve created an animated sequence which highlights the approximate positioning of officers and vehicles at the scene. The red dot represents the agent who fired the shots. Yellow dots are other agents who arrived at the scene.

At 19, I thought, “the Iraqi people were suffering under a brutal dictator…in the worst-case scenario, removing him would be a net good. What followed was civil war, mass death, swelling ranks of terror groups, genocide, mass rape, and slavery. “

I once supported regime change in Iraq. That’s why Venezuela worries me.
When we use our military and roll the dice with the fate of nations, the consequences play out in a much longer time frame than social media trends.

Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office.
No matter how they voted last night, every one of them has a say in maintaining Chuck Schumer and Dick Durbin as their caucus leaders. Every one of them is accountable here.

Also in case its not being mentioned in your feed, there is still a remaining vote for this and Somehow they didn't anticipate the outrage, so there's apparently some hesitation now.
If those were your senators, call them and don't stop. I will also be calling even though they arent mine

We need to call it what it is: a president using government coercion to silence voices he doesn't agree with is authoritarianism, plain and simple.
It's the Orbán playbook, the Putin playbook, and now the Trump playbook. And it should alarm every American.

@schumer.senate.gov this one of your constituents
All of these guys think a lot about their legacy. About the bridges that will be named after them in their home states or whatever. In the end they’re just going to be known for enabling a dictator.
