It's nice that *something* is finally happening. I also doubt we'll see any real accountability but maybe the public scrutiny will have an effect

The police use their immunity and full powers of the government to fuck over and harras people speaking out against police & government corruption the most.

This country is drowning in corruption bc it's the police who are attacking & silencing the whistle blowers, & they are so good at it.

Why wouldn’t they? When people never have real consequences, they tend to do whatever they want. Hence the felon in the highest position achievable in our country, RUNNING our country, RUINING our country
