I think about them often as well. It’s hard to feel any joy or sense of normalcy in life knowing the horror that is happening in this country and the people who are suffering.

He reveals the utter lack of decency and humanity in the Trump administration, especially in the telling detail at the end.

This “Board of Peace” thing is shady as hell.
Trump wants countries to cough up $1 billion for a permanent seat at the table. He also wants to personally oversee billions tied to Gaza reconstruction. That alone should end the conversation.

This is what happened in our neighborhood yesterday. ICE snatched a human being off of our streets, roughed them up badly, and then pepper sprayed legal observers as they documented it all. This is a daily occurrence happening all throughout Minnesota right now.

Insightful point here: Even if you take Trump seriously - he does not like the optics - they rested on an assumption that communities would welcome ICE as heroes, rather than showing the type of solidarity that Trump inherently cannot understand.
Trump is privately worried about the "optics" of ICE raids and his advisers are looking for ways to soften them, Axios reports. I'm calling bullshit: The terror and violence cannot be hived off from the broader policy agenda. They are 100% intrinsic to it.

Trump’s Own Advisers Suddenly Unnerved as ICE Raids Take Horrific Turn
So the president doesn’t like the “optics” of what ICE is doing. But there’s no such thing as sanitized, popular mass deportations—and this is by design.
