This article is a very good example of why "more training" and "more vetting" isn't the answer. Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez joined Border Patrol in 2018 and 2014 respectively. These aren't new agents. www.propublica.org/article/alex...

The president of the United States had his Justice Dept. raid an election office and seize ballots in order to cast doubt on an election he lost. Yet, this is treated by legacy media as just another normal day.

ICE murdered RenΓ©e Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.

We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

πŸ”₯MINNESOTA MAN to @stoneskynews.bsky.social : β€œThe mood is anger. We’re angry with our federal government for invading us for no good reason other than Trump wasn’t backed hereβ€” it’s a violent, brutal fascist administration. Trump’s a terrible bully. We’re defending this place against him.”

On NPR on Friday, there was a story of a 4-year-old--an American citizen--who hasn't left her house since early December, not even to play in the yard. And her 8-year-old brother recently stopped going to school, too. Their father is undocumented, and the family doesn't want to risk him being taken.

This can’t be repeated enough. Not only won’t they investigate, they may never even tell us who did this.

Think about the message that sends to the next ones. Nobody is safe.

DHS has been caught in too many lies. Don’t believe anything they say without receipts.

Liam is an innocent bystander. His family is not undocumented.

The Public Schools Superintendent says ICE used the boy as bait. I know who I believe.

Alex Pretti wasn’t a part of β€œengineered chaos.” He was a nurse who cared about people. An individual. What is β€œengineered chaos” is what this admin is doing in blue cities to justify invocation of the insurrection act.

β€œShot dead” is passive. β€œmurdered” names the actor. Words matter, especially when the state is pulling the trigger.

When Black people were murdered by cops, the victims were vilified. To many, it was a "Black problem". In less than 2 weeks, Law enforcement murdered 2 White U.S citizens. They too were vilified.

Do y'all get it now?

We told you.

Everybody's Black.

Protesters in Los Angeles projected an anti-ICE video onto the Twin Towers, an ICE-linked detention facility where the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department actively collaborates with ICE for deportation screenings.

Christi Noem should testify under oath in Congress and explain why she lied about the facts around the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti.
