If I’m not mistaken, this is the same clergy member on a different day:

ICE shot a clergy member in the head in broad daylight.

Alt text: A man in camouflage clothing and a face covering sits inside a gray Jeep, pointing a weapon out of the open driver-side window. The gun is aimed directly at the camera. The man wears gloves and a dark cap, and his eyes are visible above the mask. The vehicle’s door and side mirror are wet with raindrops.

ICE is a hostile occupying force that is a danger to everyone.

Notice how Texas AG Ken Paxton hasn't said a word about the two girls murdered in New Jersey by a Charlie Kirk fan who was angry at how one of the girls spoke about him online.

Apparently 17 year olds who drive trucks into young girls aren't 'demented souls' because they identify with the right.

In the last few weeks we’ve watched ICE:

Pepper spray the Portland frog
Tear gas members of Chicago PD
Zip tie children
Grab Chicagoans from their beds in dead of the night
Open fire on a civilian in her car

Yet they say immigrants are the threat.

Protesters are the threat.

We know better.

Hello my friends, I hope you stand by me. Omar is suffering from a perforated eardrum and an infection. He needs to take medication so I can have sinus surgery. Please don't ignore his His pain

They tried to kill this woman because she annoyed them and they are charging because she lived. Her being alive is an assault on them.

Claim: 10 cars rammed ICE
Truth: No cars rammed ICE

Claim: She boxed ICE in
Truth: ICE boxed her in

Claim: She shot a rifle at ICE
Truth: She did not have a rifle

Claim: ICE returned fire
Truth: Only ICE fired

Claim: She drove herself to the hospital
Truth: Paramedics found her

Someone should do a FOIA request for the raw footage of the videos they took of that Chicago raid and then edited into a fascist ad for ICE.

Let it never again be said that a woman with no real reporting experience who fell for a Twitter account called "Official Antifa" cannot be the head of a huge news organization

Remember when these guys ran a completely fabricated story about trans kids sourced to a single bigot who worked at St Louis Children’s Hospital and it got so much traction that they ended a bunch of programs for trans kids because of all the bomb threats

“tHeY cAnT dO tHat!!!!!”

ok well they are babe, idk what to tell you

People will bend over backwards to endow computers with humanity while denying the humanity within each other.

But history didn’t stop in 1992 and then start again in 2016

like its fucking nuts that we don’t understand the “War on Terror” — the political event — as one that transformed American society and the presidency and how the GOP grabbed power, attacked civil liberties and … literally created the DHS

I feel like the cultural milieu I was in during the early 2000s was a lot more aware of what had happened in the 1980s and how it was relevant to that present moment than the cultural milieu of the 2020s is of the early 2000s

I don’t know if it’s bc we are constantly flooded by new info on socials

Obama won in part because people were sick and tired of Bush’s approach to governance, including the attacks on civil liberties and starting illegal

And Obama promised change and then didn’t even stop the abuses of executive power

If you want to ask how we got here, we can’t memory hole that

When the Orwellian named Dept of Homeland Security was created … MANY of us predicted that it would eventually be doing all the things that it is doing right now

Pinning it uniquely on Trump really misses the point in a bunch of ways

BOOM 🔥:

Judge Immergut issues a second Temporary Restraining Order prohibiting the relocation, federalization, or deployment of ANY NATIONAL GUARD FROM ANY STATE into the state of Oregon.

we simply do not have a union anymore if the president is using troops from one state to invade others entirely on the basis of political disagreements

I wish David Lynch was still alive so I could talk to him about saying not to watch movies on your phone and ask if that still counts if you’re under your theatre curtain red bedspread and pretending you’re a giant who survived the apocalypse and squished yourself into a tiny theatre

I can’t even imagine the outrage, the scandal, if white kids had been pulled out of their homes naked and zip tied. And then separated from their parents- the last I heard, which was in a broadcast last night- they’re still separated.

It ‘matters’ when those children are white. The *only* reason people are ok with those raids or simply haven’t heard of them is bcz the ‘collateral’ is black kids and black families.

It’s amazing to watch the bosses in denial, furiously murdering their own grandchildren so they can be king of the dying world right before the climate forces them into their luxury bunkers, where they’ll die at each other’s throats.

In 2009 they stopped selling houses to those who couldn't afford them but now they're doing the same shit on like microwaves and cooking utensils. This year the top 1% surpassed 50% of the total consumption, top quintile are actual consumers, rest of the economy is one giant failing Rent-a-center

There's literally a subprime car loan crisis going on, two automotive finance companies went bankrupt in the last few weeks, been a rash of squeamish headlines about private equity and finance, high-interest buy now pay later schemes for GROCERIES and medical bills have become a massive industry

Let’s fucking go we better respect the robots before “they use us“

We’re on a speedrun to bluesky banning anti ai hate speech but leaving anti trans hate speech awesome

The apartments acted alone, pulling the adults and children out of them without anyone’s else’s participation

ICE gassed members of the Chicago Police Department sent to protect them from protesters

history teacher in 50 years: So in September, that’s when the president signed an executive order criminalizing anti-fascism and saying all resistance would be crushed

student: oh so that’s when the whole country realized they were living under fascism

teacher: haha what? oh no lol not at all. no.
