On a background of washed out red, blue, and yellow, the content says: Ted Kaczynski, domestic terrorist; Tim McVeigh, domestic terrorist; Terry Nichols, domestic terrorist; Michael Fortier, domestic terrorist; Chris Dorner, domestic terrorist. A few spaces below that, the content reads: Renee Good, poet; Alex Pretti, nurse. The last two people were killed by federal agents, but labeled as domestic terrorists by the feds.

The U.S. has had some real domestic terrorists over the past 25 years. It’s more than a stretch to describe the 2 people recently #KilledByICE as such.

I did not watch the swearing in of Georgia prisoner number P01135809, but I read an article that he took the oath office without placing his hand on a Bible. Interesting given that he sold Bibles last year for $59.99 each, making $300K on them. #politics
