Everyone and everything getting exposed, but my republican relatives are still going to abuse me and keep telling everyone I'm crazy--the only kind, generous, intelligent, driven person in the entire family.

Disappointing how many liberals *only now* realize we're sliding into fascism when we raised the alarms on Palestine & the ongoing eugenics of the pandemic response years ago...these same people have been silent about both

I can forgive being uneducated. I can't forgive lying and gaslighting. It's one thing to not know about something, but talking down to people who do and claiming things happened differently or not at all, is some evil shit.

They fought so hard that my son died in 2018 because he simply couldn’t afford his medicine.

He didn’t just “pass away”. He suffered. They worked for 2.5hrs trying to save him. Total organ failure.
Why? Because he was poor and couldn’t afford insurance or medicine
Fuck the Dems. Fuck all of them.
Because we're all trapped in the event horizon of the 2016 primary we have to pretend that "universal healthcare", something that every Democratic administration has worked to expand since Truman, is something that "liberalism" has fought against, instead of a bog-standard part of the platform.

I say again: at this point, can we all agree that the Republican party is a terrorist organization, and ban them from future elections and political positions? The Democrats are the conservatives in any civilized country. Most countries also have Green parties. And we should have at least 4.

ICE is violently assaulting peaceful protestors & entering homes without warrants. They shot an innocent mom in the head & used a 5-year-old as bait.

I voted against funding, but that’s not enough. Abolish and dismantle ICE. If you support this shit, you are sick in the head.

The officer who shot Alex worked for DHS for 8 years. The officer who shot Renee worked for DHS for over 10 years. Both are considered “highly trained.”

The problem isn’t "training." DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity. We must MELT ICE and dismantle DHS.

If everything going on right now doesn't clue my family's social circle in that my father is a republican and an abuser, then they truly are choosing ignorance.

It's so fucked up to have no family or childhood connections because your father is an evil narcissist who pretends to be nice.

We had to put up with school shootings because "the 2nd Amendment"
But watch ICE eliminate the right to bear arms by executing anyone they find with a gun and to hell with the 2nd Amendment.
ICE will soon be killing citizens in their own homes because they're scared there might be a gun inside.

Gentrification is basically doing private equity on a whole city.

I don't understand people who hate PE but believe it's ok to destroy communities because they want to party in someone else's home.

ICE is a terror organization and must be dismantled, abolished and its members prosecuted. Full stop.

I think about this every day. Especially to vulnerable folks, like children, sick ppl, disabled ppl, the elderly. Especially if it’s someone they think will die in detention or who will never return to tell their stories.
If this is what they do when they're out on the street with people pointing cameras at them, what do you think is happening inside the ICE prison camps that they keep denying Members of Congress access to?

> "system crash” deleted nearly two weeks of surveillance footage from inside the facility

that's not how anything works they're lying and destroying evidence hope that helps
And what is happening inside ICE detention centers? 404 Media also learned that the federal government claimed that the day after it was sued for allegedly abusing detainees at an ICE detention center, a “system crash” deleted nearly two weeks of surveillance footage from inside the facility.
ICE Says Critical Evidence In Abuse Case Was Lost In 'System Crash' a Day After It Was Sued
The government also said "we don't have resources" to retain all footage and that plaintiffs could supply "endless hard drives that we could save things to."

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today.

This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

No good person would ever think it's cool to cosplay a fucking Nazi.

These people need to be locked up for the rest of their lives. No pardons, no releases.
