Please bear with me while I work on following back. I must have ended up on someone's starter pack because I'm getting a lot of follows and I haven't even posted anything brilliant 😜 Oh, and thanks to whoever that was.

Life is coming at me fast these days but I'll keep making progress!

Gonna have to rename the Streisand Effect the Bari Weiss Effect
A career federal agent says that in 25 years, a fleeing vehicle has never justified killing its occupant, and officers should never stand in front of a running car. CBS reportedly pulled the interview, but it posted on YouTube.

There are some 20-30k ICE agents. There are approximately 250 million adults in the United States. The idea that we are helpless...is the biggest load of bullshit mindset one can have.

“The blatant lies about Minneapolis serve several purposes. They perpetuate the false narrative that federal agents are in constant peril and therefore justified in using lethal force at the slightest hint of danger. They assure fed. agents that they can harm/even kill American citizens w/ impunity"
First the Shooting. Then the Lies.
The Trump administration has perfected the smear campaign.

Yep, it's a thorny question for legal minds, but I think a critical one.
I just noticed that we're so used to seeing the masked "agents" we don't even question it anymore.
It should be central and FIRST in EVERY legal endeavor surrounding ICE. No warrants, no ID, no way to tell the legitimate ones.
Question for legal minds...if ICE agents refuse to provide identification, doesn't that make it legal for citizens to act out in defense? We dont know who they really are. They refuse to provide identification. Fighting back seems beyond legal to me.

It should be bigger news that masked agents were filmed hours ago removing potentially inculpatory evidence from the ICE shooter's house, clearly lacking evidence tags or chain of custody stickers.

Before we have word on whether he underwent a toxicology screen at the hospital following the killing

What the body cam reveals

Renee Good, while calmly moving her car, seconds before her death: “I’m not mad at you”

ICE agent Jonathan Ross, after shooting and killing her: “F*cking b*tch”

At no time does the video show Ross was struck by the car, or needed to use deadly force

Yet still they lie
