Remember — this is happening as they get even more tax cuts in exchange for the social safety net being cut for everyone else.

Being “disrespectful of law enforcement” is not a crime, and is not something that American citizens should be summarily executed for by masked men in unmarked cars.
Q: "Do you believe that deadly force was necessary?"
Trump: "It was highly disrespectful of law enforcement. The woman and her friend were highly disrespectful of law enforcement…Law enforcement should not be in a position where they have to put up with this stuff."

It is imperative we grasp this deeply.
Not those whose shoulders have been at the wheels forever... but the seemingly well-meaning people who think they can stand back & let someone else do the work... the ones who think it isn't that bad & doesn't concern them.

He just assaulted her. He needs to be brought up on charges!
A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

Renee Good’s death will not be in vain. It has already drawn needed attention to a rogue president and agency acting with impunity. She could be any mother, in any city, at any time. She could be any one of us. It is time to draw the line in the sand. And to say her name while doing it.
