ICE targets legal immigrants and US citizens based on skin colour, canceling legal processes with crooked judges to abduct people and profit from quotas. It is breaking a multitude of laws as instructed by the regime. This is ethnic cleansing and human trafficking. #3E #StopICE

I’ve been saying this for years. Our MSM have failed us miserably. Because while they’re VERY PROFICIENT at holding Democrats accountable, they’re clueless about doing the same for Republicans. It hurts their feelings to point it out, but it’s necessary if they have any hope for improvement.

Something I’d note is that while there is criminal immunity for “official acts” for the president, no such immunity exists for the deputy chief of staff.

My relatives in East L.A. — born in the U.S.A. — are afraid to go outside because masked men with guns are randomly snatching people off the street. This is a government terrorism campaign against its own people.

just saw a group of masked men stuffing masked ICE agents into an unmarked car, who were saying "we're ICE we're ICE!" but the abductors shouted to the crowd "no we're ICE!" no one knew who was ICE, so no one in the crowd said anything.

If Ohio and Texas’ Republican legislatures redistrict mid-cycle to help House Republicans through gerrymandering, Democratic legislatures should do the same. Fuck this unilateral disarmament bullshit. Until the GOP stops gerrymandering, Dems should gerrymander too.

Today’s GOP doesn’t want votes, it wants power. That’s why they gerrymander, purge voters, and pack courts. It’s not about democracy—it’s about dominance. If we don’t call it what it is—minority rule enforced by fear—we’re sleepwalking into tyranny.

All across America, if you look like you might not belong according to the rightwing extremist regime’s conception of “real America,” you are now at constant risk of being assaulted by these masked thugs tasked with purging the nation. Whatever you want to call this, democracy it definitely ain’t.

You have to fundamentally realise what is really going on in America. Democracy doesn’t work for the wealthy. They want to rule. Democracy doesn’t allow that. So destroy democracy by controlling what people see and hear. Particularly effective for non critical thinkers.

Compton, CA: A masked, heavily-armed man wearing body armor jumped out of a SUV today to kidnap a local resident. He forgot to put the vehicle in park, causing it to roll down the street damaging other cars. He jumped in the vehicle (which had no platess) and drove off without identifying himself.
