Of course they haven’t watched! They think they can deny knowledge of it all.
Duckworth on Senate Republicans: "I gotta be honest with you. When I talk to a few of my colleagues, they had not even seen the videos. It's almost like they put blinders on. They're uneasy."

I mean yes. We should be doing that now.
Yes because then they’d have to face the reality of what people think of them

The agents who beat and then killed Alex Pretti after they took his gun - they were wearing body cams.
That did not stop them.
Unmasking them might. Not every time. But it might stop some of them.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

The Senate bill is rooted in the idea that we just need to get BP/ICE "back to" only terrorizing people we deem worthy of being terrorized, and not White people. The exact problematic understanding people have been trying to warn against... While a lot of White people insisted that concern was silly

I’m hosting a gun safety class at a local range geared towards disarming and dis-assembling weapons. Too many people think it is shooting or nothing; guns exist in our communities and we need to know how to safely neutralize them.

It is profoundly sad that a white man's concealed carry guns rights is what is getting certain people to finally understand that the US government does not give a shit about laws or rights or lives. This is not a criticism of the victim. This is a criticism of the US's sympathies & priorities.

Bovino is just the patsy - a noxious and odious fall guy. Stephen Miller is the architect and prime mover of the whole thing. Everything they do is at his direction - often after his threats. As long as he runs policy in the WH, nothing will change no matter how many Bovinos come and go.

Our due process is gone if an agent of the government can execute you and you never even find out their names.
So, what's left?
They say if we respond to them with force, they'll kill us.
But they're already killing us, when we use no force.
When does it become a revolution?

This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years.
These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.
