BREAKING: ICE killed a Minnesota woman in broad daylight & there must be accountability.
But when I moved to subpoena all records & footage related to this murder, Republicans voted it down.
They've never cared about law & order or keeping our communities safe.

most of the reasons why i love Last Samurai Standing on Netflix are spoilers but the one i can talk about is the fight choreography. usually when i watch fast flashy choreo i'm waiting to spoil the fun and complain about realism. but 95% of the fighting is as realistic as it is showy/impressive
