You could also frame this as the federal goons tactics and behavior are so abhorrent that it violates social media policies to post videos of it.

Supporters Say β€˜God Has Forgiven’ Ex-Megachurch Pastor Robert Morris, Who Admitted to Sexual Abuse of a 12-Year-Old Comments have rolled in expressing forgiveness for the convicted child sex offender and megachurch founder.

still thinking about what it means that admitting to the sexual abuse of a 12-year-old can be explained away by fervent enough supporters

It's difficult at times to hold both "this admin is doing lasting and serious damage to our institutions and the globe" and "this admin is full of the most bafflingly incompetent idiots you've ever seen who fall over themselves like a Vaudeville act constantly."

The duality of man is incredible.

Don't give up on your dreams.

At least one other person, who identified herself on social media as Kat Abughazaleh, a former journalist also running for Congress, landed on the ground during that same protest after she was pushed by a federal law enforcement agent in a camouflage uniform wearing a full face covering, sunglasses and a helmet, video by CNN affiliate WBBM showed.

This is how ICE drove by protesters yesterday. A row of state police separated protesters and ICE vehicles.

We need a bigger national spotlight on this building raid, fam. Agents dropped from helicopters onto the roof. Citizens and non-citizens alike were dragged from their homes in the night. People who weren't kidnapped during the raid had their belongings seized after the fact. This is madness.

A man was just chased and arrested outside of the Broadview ICE facility in Chicago. When legal observers from the National Lawyers Guild asked why, an agent threatened to arrest them too.

ICE in Chicago Plus Tom Homan's promise about Tom Homan

The DOJ wants federal agents to protect ICE from protesters. In Broadview, ICE is terrorizing everyone -- including local law enforcement.

Nobody cares about the victims in the Dallas ICE shooting apparently. The first I've heard about one of them was on CNN today. He's fighting for his life in the hospital --- he was brought to the US when he was 13. He's 33 now. No criminal record.

I just don't know what to say anymore.

How can 17 people face charges for the alleged actions of a single shooter? How can an officer sustain shots from a rifle to the neck and torso and be released from the hospital in 24 hours? Are anarchist zines evidence of a plan to commit an ambush?

There are many questions still unanswered.
