Based on Twitter threads I've seen, sadly this seems to track. Don't really want to repeat their talking points but there are talking points and personally it makes me want to bring back living funereal pyres

May every ICE agent never know peace in their soul or mind for the rest of their lives. May what they've done haunt them, and may they never feel the relief of forgiveness.

DB has been a community outlet for literally decades. The only reason it's in the news now is because fascist fuckhole Rantz painted a target on it (along with the wealthy families that live nearby who hate seeing people use a public park).

Keep in mind. Trump isn’t giving all these ICE Agents directions individually. They are choosing to do this. Stealing money. Making girls stand in the rain in their underwear. That’s their choice. Because people who chose to be ICE Agents chose it for pain it causes.
Please highlight this story.
ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago.

It isn't a 180 when your entire worldview is that Power's only use is to Punish. They want to blunt Power use against people in their group and maximize use of Power against people outside their group. That's it. That's the ideology.

In this Ohio diner, it was a tradition: waffles and eggs, big cup of Folgers, then everyone crowds into the old unmarked van to drive around town grabbing random people and sending them to El Salvador torture prisons. But now the woke mob wants to take all of that away.

Economy crashes under Trump I: ah, but see that was COVID, even if his response was so bad it created the largest mass uprising since 1969, not his fault
Economy crashes under Trump II: ah, well, nevertheless

Unfortunately, they are right to be concerned. If I had my kids in Canadian schools right now I would NOT be sending them across the border, with or without me. There are reports coming out now of even American Citizens being harassed coming back into the US (particularly lawyers and activists)
