An initially-secret report for Customs and Border Patrol in 2013 found:

In many vehicle shooting cases, the “driver was attempting to flee from the agents who intentionally put themselves into the exit path of the vehicle, thereby … creating justification for the use of deadly force.”

In his closed door interview last year, Jack Smith told House committee: “The evidence here made clear that President Trump was by a large measure the most culpable and most responsible person in this conspiracy..”
ALERT: Jack Smith will testify PUBLICLY before the House Judiciary Committee as early as this month

Smith has been pressing to do so... in a public setting

Oil companies shouldn't know more about Donald Trump's plans in Venezuela than the American people.

I launched an investigation with @whitehouse.senate.gov, because every single American deserves answers.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social run with this, @senatedemocrats.bsky.social follow Senator Murphy. Abolish ICE, Crush ICE. Defund them. Remove their immunity. Take off the masks. Hold them accountable. Destroy them.
Swalwell to @gregsargent.bsky.social: "I’m not voting to fund this ICE. I support getting rid of their immunity. I support requiring them to take off the masks ... This ICE is not what anybody asked for, and I’m not going to vote to continue it."

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

On December 30, a federal judge ordered the administration to continue funding the CFPB, blocking its attempt to starve the consumer watchdog of cash. The legal fight over the agency’s future is ongoing—and could reshape consumer protections nationwide.

After federal troops forced a fugitive slave named Anthony Burns back into slavery in the 1850s, one Bostonian wrote, “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.” The abuse of power radicalizes people. We are seeing that now.

Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) is retiring. He's the first Republican to come out and champion this plaque to honor Jan 6 police heroes

Nevertheless.. there was no objection

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 want to connect the dots.

The rush to call Renee Good a terrorist, the rewriting of Jan 6th - it's all part of Trump's campaign to use violence to protect his power.

A world in which our leader gets to shoot or attack us if we oppose him - that's a dystopia we cannot permit.

@gabbygiffords.bsky.social

Since then, Gabby has turned that tragedy into action as one of the most impactful leaders in our fight to end gun violence.

She is my hero.

An impeachable offence, of course
This is piracy under the law of nations. And under section 1651 of title 18 of the United States Code, piracy under the law of nations is punishable by life imprisonment.
