"Six Prosecutors Quit Over Push to Investigate ICE Shooting Victim’s Widow"

Six lawyers in the U.S. Attorney's Office have done what their oath requires of them: resigned rather than participate in building a sham domestic terrorism case against Renee Good's widow.

I like that they’ve given up on even having immigration enforcement as a pretext for any of this. It’s just purely armed masked goons wandering around in the middle of intersections harassing U.S. citizens as a display of force now.
Today at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, a woman tried to drive down the street where a protest had broken out in front of a home ICE was raiding, saying she had a doctor apt to get to. ICE agents busted out her windows, cut off her seatbelt, and pulled her out before arresting her.

Protesters clashed with federal agents for another night outside the Whipple Federal Building, which holds ICE detainees. Agents fired less-lethal munitions and deployed chemical irritants at the crowd.

Good morning to readers; Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.

Before protests in Iran were about freedom, but these one are different. They're about food, Mehdi said.

Mehdi, an agriculture expert, knows what drought has done to Iran and believes the country is at a tipping point.
How a drought drives Iran’s protests
Protests sparked by drastic inflation are raging all over Iran. Mehdi has spent years watching Iran’s water shortage drive the country to a tipping point.

I think the misogynist contempt that’s evident as a motivation in the murder of Renee Good makes her killing by a state actor more similar to so-called private violence—eg domestic violence homocides—than some arguments that rely on a firm distinction between state and private violence can sustain.

Part of the horror of Good’s killing, in the video, is precisely its deeply gendered dynamic: a man responded with murderous violence to a woman’s perceived subversion of his male authority. This gender violence aspect is not mooted by Ross’s simultaneous status as an enforcer of federal policy.

this looks like all old church ladies. no one has had more practice singing harmonies than old church ladies. the right needs old church ladies to survive, and it turns out murdering innocent mothers isn't a good strategy to hold that demographic
Many harmonies as they sing “we have been burned, burned by the fire/ and we are ashes, ashes and smoke/ and we will rise higher and higher/ on the wings of compassion, justice and hope.”

There’s been a record number of deaths in ICE detention since Trump took office.

Two US citizens have been killed.

What’s Noem doing?

Signing a policy that will bar Congress from visiting ICE facilities without a week’s notice.

You don’t need a week’s notice unless you have something to hide.
