When Renee Good said "I'm not mad at you" what the ICE goon heard was "I'm not scared of you."
That's what enraged him. The populace wasn't fully terrorized and cowed into submission yet, so he acted to make that happen.

If the President has seen a different video, he should release it. But the evidence available does not show an officer being run over or a justification for shots to be fired. The rush to excuse this shooting is expected but abhorrent. Gather the facts. Do your job.

They spent $60 million to arrest 4,500 people, only 1.5% of whom had been convicted of violent or sex crimes.
The Tribune’s review of government expenses reveals a costly and sprawling operation that extended well beyond immigration arrests, encompassing a surge of manpower, overtime pay, and expenditures on aircraft, crowd-control munitions and hundreds of National Guard troops kept on standby.
Cost of Operation Midway Blitz: $59M and counting
A Tribune review of court filings, databases and other public records detailing the scope of the incursion and typical costs shows how much the federal government has spent since September.

Twitter is owned by a fascist, Facebook and the Washington Post have gone MAGA, and now CBS News is about to be turned into far-right state TV. Here’s why America has a liberal media bias problem.

Baltimore residents and organizers are in the streets refusing an illegal war, a kidnapped head of state, and a president who treats violence as a profit strategy.
No coups. No oil wars. No silence.

Wow, that pic of Obama et al in the situation room really broke a lot of these people. Amazing.
the photographer was definitely like, "ok everybody, look tough!" but we know they're all just reading tweets with their arms crossed in a country club dining room divided up by bedsheets tacked to the beams

If anyone in Southern California is able to adopt or foster a small dog, 40 of them were just rescued and need lots of love 😭
Forty dogs rescued from squalid La Mesa apartment. ‘One of the worst hoarding situations.’
The dogs were found living in a unit that had floors and walls caked in trash, grime and animal waste.

I loved this. And I want to note the whole “there were no autistic people before …” discourse has an answer here: just the people were sent away in the incarceration (yes “care homes” like this), and if they fled, they were just abandoned by society, usually to die.
