Super late to the party on this, but I don’t think it matters what kind of bullets that cop shot the Australian reporter with. Cops have no business shooting reporters in the first place.

There was never a “criminal invasion” via the southern border. ICE is having trouble finding actual criminals. So the regime is staging WWE style raids to round up innocents. It’s grotesque and cruel MAGA kabuki theatre (it’s their M.O.): red meat for yellow MAGA dogs!

Philly local tv station reporting that a man allegedly posed as an ICE agent in order to rob a car repair business office. How many other criminals might be getting this idea right now, given that actual ICE agents are refusing to show IDs, warrants, badges?

Those concerned about violence might want to start with violence against immigrants, by ICE here, by illegal deportations to gulags and third countries, the violence against so many federal departments, against the law, the climate, the public lands, waters, civil rights, reproductive rights...

It is not lost on Americans that the orchestrated federal war on California comes after a humiliating week for The Orange King and his desire to bend the will of blue states and their leaders. They are picking a fight and declaring war on all of us.

BREAKING: LAPD didn’t just “detain” someone. They surrounded him, beat him, and jumped him — like a gang. On camera. On horses. While he screamed for help. Unarmed. Cornered. Alone. If that’s not state violence, what the fuck is?

"On the trail, Trump declared he would deport massive numbers of 'criminal aliens.'

Imagine, just imagine, the response from the West if the Iranian government, in international waters, had rammed and then boarded a European ship, filled with European citizens, and taken them captive. But it's Israel, so it's all good. Our citizens don't matter.
