I still can't get past the idea that people in America are now supposed to accept that this is a valid form of law enforcement and just assume it's fine when random dudes in groups with face-coverings, no ID, no warrant, & no uniform grab people off the street and force them into unmarked vehicles

THREAD: The assassinations in Minnesota highlight a dirty secret hardly ever mentioned in the news: U.S. has 1.1 million private police officers. There is an unprecedented footprint of privately organized violence that is doing all sorts of things most people have no idea about.

Spare me the fake outrage. None of these people showing up for court are criminals of any kind. As a prosecutor, I worked with many ICE officers who arrested violent criminals. None of them wore masks. Many of your agents are clearly ashamed to carry out your orders.

Anti-IVF rhetoric is on the rise. Anti-abortion leaders have described IVF as mass murder; some consider it ~ worse ~ than abortion. Also on the rise: calls for more clinic harassment, attacks, and protests after Trump pardoned 23 FACE Act violators in January. And today in CA:

Here’s the best explanation out there of how Trump’s acceptance of Qatar’s 747 — and his threat to suspend habeas corpus — flagrantly steal powers belonging only to Congress and why the habeas suspension would endanger everyone’s lives, liberty, and property open.substack.com/pub/harrylit...

The new pope seems like a decent guy. So far at least. Not as primitive and thuggish as so many of the American Catholics in politics. Certainly more traditionally “Christian” than what the Republican Jesus has turned into.

Marvel. Marvel at how glibly they make stuff up. Gaze in wonder at the way they flip reality upside down and inside out. Trump taught them to conjure up bullshit out of thin air and then spread it with conviction and never look back.

Loving the likes and reposts! I think people would get a lot more out of reading this, though. However bad you think this is, it's worse. Arm yourself with facts. It can help you persuade people not to be suckered by RFK's sadism and lies.
