CBS obtained video of the DHS killing of an unarmed man in Texas that DHS concealed for nearly a year, which clearly contradicts claims that he violently rammed anyone. He is shot with his brake lights on, car not moving or barely moving. Another DHS crime.

We can throw another $500,000,000,000 at the Pentagon this year and spend $1,000,000,000/day on a wholly useless war, but we can't afford to hire doctors and nurses to take care of our veterans? The United States is such an irresponsible, messed up country right now.

A Republican president starts a war for "regime change" in the middle east, again. And bombs children, again. Yall are so good at history.

And whatever ICE or CBP does to us in the future, the government will say we "had a criminal record." Our Republican family members will nod gravely and say everyone should just comply.

Fyi, ICE can do something similar to a US citizen. Detain us, refuse to check ID, charge us with a crime they have zero chance of proving such as impeding an investigation. The judge will call the charges ridiculous, but (unless we pay to get it expunged) it still shows up if we apply for a job.

A reasonable person would understand those accusations could be completely false! Yet our government can count the detainee as having a "criminal record." They can use that as an excuse to revoke someone's legal status.

Among the small percentage of people listed as being violent, thousands of them were accused of a crime (by police or ICE), but those charges were dropped (by a prosecutor) or dismissed (by a judge). ICE doesn't care if charges stick, they expect people to be out of country long before trial.

They say “where’s the gun?” — After the shots

Because they don’t realize one of them had already taken it — before the shots

Live: Federal agents shot and killed Minneapolis man, DHS officials say he was armed A bystander video shows several agents wrestled with man on a city sidewalk moments before the shooting. Police chief Brian O’Hara issued a plea for calm, as protesters gathered at the scene: “Please ...

In their justification, DHS is not claiming he shot at them. DHS is claiming the man *had* a gun.
According to police chief the victim was a US citizen, 37-year-old white man "with a permit to carry a gun." In this country where 32% of the population own a gun.

TV reporter warns of ice presence in downtown Fredericksburg, I thought he meant ice, but he actually meant ice. Why do 2 threats against our society need to use the same name.
In another story, Trump's newest secret police is called Multi Elite Agents' Secret Lawless Exo-Service, or M.E.A.S.L.E.S.

There's a good chance he is inside one of the four jails which willingly hold ICE detainees who are not charged with any crime (in Willmar, Elk River, Brainerd, or Albert Lea). This kid may be able to contact his family, if he memorized their cell phone numbers.

Six brave ice officers ($50k bonus each) did a warrantless stop on a Minneapolis middle schooler armed with Hot Cheetos. The child was accused of walking without an ID. Within seconds, he was pushed into an unmarked vehicle.
His name is unknown. 1/2

POLICE CHIEF: “If it’s happening to our officers, it pains me to think how many of our community members are falling victim to this every day.”

ICE is even racially profiling off-duty Black & Brown cops— including pulling guns on one and knocking her phone out of her hand.

Apparently the only thing I use ai for is to help me disable ai.
I am ready to admit ai cannot do this simple task. In the future when an ai is forced on me, I will save time and by searching reddit.

Just wait until Greenland finds out the U.S. only gives 12 weeks maternity leave unpaid, instead of Denmark's 52 weeks paid. Yes, the U.S. has a military stronger than the rest of the world combined. Yes, we give tax breaks to every billionaire. Look at how much it costs us.

Yet this dude thinks his followers are excited to subjugate and colonize arctic Greenland. Is he using Minnesota as a practice run? An unavoidable truth about colonization: The more troops you send, the more they hate you.

The US purchased Alaska 159 years ago. Any US citizen who wants to live in the arctic circle is already in Alaska! Like Greenland, there are few people. Arctic regions are, still, populated mostly by the indigenous people who have lived there for 10 thousand years. *22 square miles per person.*

Note: Iraqi oil made somebody rich, but not the people of Iraq and not US taxpayers. Our invasion of Iraq (2003) and failed reconstruction (2003-2012) cost us $815 billion. That war directly led to the rise of ISIS and countless civilian deaths.

NEW: @reuters.com got its hands on a document from the Guatemalan government further undermining the claims the Trump admin made publicly (and to a federal judge) that the attempted deportation of 600 children in the dead of the night was requested by parents.
