Why are ICE agents masked to begin with? Our law enforcement officers shouldn’t be anonymous. Ever.

What happened before Mayor Baraka’s arrest needs daylight.
Did masked ICE agents let him in just so they could arrest and perp walk him to send a message of fear. Because that’s what it looks like.
We’re sliding into fascism—and fast. And if we don’t stop it now, we may not get another chance.

Disappearing an elected official.
Alina Habba tells Fox News that Newark Mayor Ras Baraka was arrested and is being held in a secret location right now.
Martha MacCallum: "Where is he being held?"
Habba: 'I'm not going to speak to that right now. He's obviously in New Jersey."

“Abolish ICE” is the moderate position. Radical is “prosecute every ICE employee under RICO.”

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978?
100%? 500%?
Try 1,085%
Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Cal-Maine, the biggest egg producer, has been accused of using bird flu as cover to jack up prices and triple its profits from a year ago.
It also received $22M in federal aid.
While you're getting gouged at the grocery store, your tax dollars are subsidizing corporate greed.

Well, you can learn one lesson from Trump's poor example today: appeasement does not work.
Pathetic.
Putin isn't even on Truth Social but it'll get back to him, and he will just laugh his ass off. Just like the rest of the world is laughing at us right now.
