ICE is bashing down doors in Minnesota with guns aimed.

This is literally a home invasion by Trump's masked terrorists.

The courage of this person to refuse to collaborate while he *knows* that ICE just executed someone in the streets... He sets an example to all of us.

CBS News abruptly removed a segment from “60 Minutes” that was to feature the stories of Venezuelan men deported by the Trump administration to what the program called a “brutal” prison in El Salvador. Sharyn Alfonsi, the correspondent, criticized the network’s decision to remove her reporting.

Then I'll try to explain that, despite what tankies and patriots alike will tell you, the governments on both sides of any given conflict CAN in fact both be bad at the same time, but no one will listen because everyone just wants easy answers.

New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism

“'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.'

*More of this, please*"

I’m going to say this, not to be an asshole, but just so folks can get a clearer understanding, especially white folks.

In many cities, in communities that are majority POC, “jump outs” have been part of policing for DECADES. They often are very much like this. It is new for a PhD student.
Not sure if this has been shared here yet, but this is video of Rumeysa Ozturk's arrest posted by WCVB. It's terrifying.
