Who would have guessed it: never mentioning public healthcare and embracing fracking, the Cheneys & a year long slaughter in Gaza wouldn’t be a winning strategy.

People who use the phrase 'political will' are usually talking out of their ass and trying to forestall something that should have been done 50 fucking years ago.
To protect their own ass.
Fuck a political will. If it's right, do it. Or get the fuck up out the way for someone who CAN.

“Renee was not the first person killed, and she was not the last,” Becca Good said. “You know my wife’s name and you know Alex’s name, but there are many others in this city being harmed that you don’t know — their families are hurting just like mine, even if they don’t look like mine.”
Renee Good's partner addresses Minneapolis immigration crackdown one month after killing
Becca Good has seldom spoken out since Renee Good was shot and killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis on Jan. 7.

As others have aptly pointed out, police forces have been murdering people for a long time, especially POC. This terrorism from ICE is only a continuation and newest version of what we have been seeing for a long time.

Congrats to Mayor-Elect Thompson. Let's hope that GOP state officials don't try to stymie her.
Late result for anyone still awake: Na’Cole Thompson, the Democratic candidate in the mayoral race today in Leander, Texas, has won the election.
She got 57% and won’t need a runoff, with two Republicans adding up to 43%.

I think a lot about a world where Biden and Starmer didn't support Israel's genocide in Gaza. A world where they rejected the claims that opposing genocide is antisemitic.
So many deaths, so much ruin that could have been avoided.

ICE isn’t out of Minnesota. Enforcement hasn’t stopped; in many places it’s intensified. What changed wasn’t the raids, it was the coverage. As pressure grew, cameras shifted and Democrats redirected the conversation. But ICE activity in Minnesota is still very real & ongoing. #FuckICE #AbolishICE
