Our NATO allies have stood beside us & we need to maintain the strength of that alliance”

This is true, and we cannot get complacent, but it is 100% a good sign that Bovino got the boot. It's more accountability than we've seen in a year
Bovino is just the patsy - a noxious and odious fall guy. Stephen Miller is the architect and prime mover of the whole thing. Everything they do is at his direction - often after his threats. As long as he runs policy in the WH, nothing will change no matter how many Bovinos come and go.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

These events in Minneapolis are a very small, made-for-TV slice of a much deeper necrosis in the American body politic. The manufactured spectacle surrounding these specific executions does not help us address our societal/institutional dysfunctions—it exacerbates them.

Police in the US kill,.on average, around 3 people per day. Three summary executions without due process.

Every. Single. Day.

Wake up. Make breakfast. Do email. Watch a murder. Go to a party for a 5 year old. Laugh with my daughter. See a different angle of that murder. Hear govt officials slander the victim. Play Barbies with my kid. Feed her dinner. Tear up at that victim reading last honors to a vet. Put kid to bed. USA

People are already doing more. There’s a ton of organizing going on, there is a mass movement that’s growing. Many, many people have already taken steps beyond filming. Nonviolence is the only winning strategy for this growing mass movement

I’d like your thoughts on whether the only way to get good policing is to have it be something like mandatory service.

People who self-select into these jobs seem to abuse their position at rates higher than random chance. (e.g. See DV studies)

Lot’s of issues with timing etc, but workable?

a lot of people seem convinced that because they're spouting bald-faced, obvious lies on television that means they're going to win

a question: do you think the Renee Good shooting worked for them? or did their lies only work on their base and deepen and intensify the opposition of everyone else?

Very thankful that if ICE executes me in the street, I will at least know their name if I can scan the QR code and load the webpage before I bleed out.

It aims to increase transparency and accountability following a series of high‑profile incidents that have eroded public trust.

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

The exonerative tense strikes again
By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.

If the government executing us in the streets isn’t your red line, then you’ve already decided to endorse it.

There’s no gray area left. No ambiguity.

If you and your colleagues don’t collectively block this bill I will hold YOU individually and collectively responsible for it passing.

If initial reports are true, they shot someone who they'd wrestled to the ground. Potentially an observer. These agents must be arrested and brought to justice.
