Police departments across the US are quietly leveraging school district security cameras to assist Donald Trumpβs mass immigration enforcement campaign, an investigation by @the74.bsky.social reveals.

Seems real bad that the end point of ~25 years of War on Terror architecture is an agency of thin-skinned goons who will send armed men to your house if you email the government asking for compassion on behalf of someone else.

Itβs absolutely the right call and fucking surreal that our public schools have to close because of the threat posed by OUR OWN FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. I am beyond livid.

Heller said she heard ICE agents telling the driver, a woman, to "get out of here." "She was trying to turn around, and the ICE agent was in front of her car, and he pulled out a gun and put it right in -- like, his midriff was on her bumper - and he reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three. four times." Heller said, Heller said it appeared the woman then accelerated and traveled about 100 feet before striking a utility pole and some other vehicles. She could be seen slumped over inside her car McLaughlin claims the victim was "one of these violent rioters" who "weaponized her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them - and act of domestic terrorism."
Today ICE murdered a woman in cold blood in Minneapolis.
In a democracy, this insane act of violence would get a full investigation. Firings. Jail.
In fascism, innocent victims are merely labeled "enemies of the state." No investigations needed.
Thus, state-sanctioned violence against the people.
Is this piece of shit what US people call a journalist?

Hereβs my pep talk after studying authoritarianism: 1). They never truly expect a long-term resistance movement bc they think people are a collection of trauma triggers who are easily controlled thru terror 2). If they canβt terrorize you 24/7 in your mind, they have already lost the war 3). The single best way you can resist fascism is to not let them terrorize you constantly. Protect your mental health to ensure you are not constantly in a terrorized state 4). Keep connecting to who you are at your core. Your values, preferences, ethics, and beliefs. Build up capacity to resist 5). Remember they are like abusive parents: they only see us extensions of them. They have no clue how powerful joy and community and self-expression can be. We can use this to our advantage β we can be the strong-willed child they never saw coming. Spending time connecting to your true self is not selfish in these times β itβs intricately connected to a resistance movement that is tied to honoring our bodies, our communities, and to the land. We have to build capacity to resist by being exactly who we are!

And detainees are held for much long periods of time than needed so that these companies can charge more and make billions extra. Itβs state sanctioned human trafficking.
