2026 prediction:

Netflix/Warner Bros announces the cancellation of Emily in Paris after realizing no one wants to watch Genevieve, the most junior & now sole remaining employee of l'Agence Grateau, perform marketing prompt engineering tasks for products no one needs or can afford.
It's surreal.

With the President of the United States lying and releasing deceptively edited video about this shooting I hope the NYT Visual Investigations team—along with Bellingcat, the best in the business on this type of thing—jumping on this.

As an American who chose exile in Europe, might I suggest Europe not count on the Americans being able to handle this on their own and plan accordingly?

LIAR!!!!! She was murdered in cold blood.
This is how Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem dishonestly represents the events in the video of the ICE agent murdering a driver in Minneapolis.

We can all see with our own eyes that every word out of her mouth is a shameless lie.

Standard policy for the entire Trump administration.

They will murder unarmed citizens and then accuse them of wrongdoing. Zero sense of accountability or shame.

I cannot emphasize this strongly enough: one of the most radical things you can do is help build systems of care outside of capitalism.

There are a thousand ways to do that.

so ICE is just shooting people in the face in cold blood in the middle of the street now

abolish it and prosecute everyone involved, there can be no "looking forward" about this kind of shit
Absolutely horrific details about an ICE shooting in Minneapolis.

A witness says a woman was trying to drive away from an ICE operation and the ICE agent "reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three, four times."

Bovino was there.

ICE just murdered a woman here in Minneapolis. A legal observer. Shot her multiple times while she drove away as ordered. She was a US citizen.

Absolute, unequivocal, cold-blooded murder by Trump’s gestapo.

Abolish ICE, jail for everyone in charge. This is the lowest bar we accept now.

I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK
I’m eating lunch, I’m having a panic attack, I’m charging my phone, and then I’m going back out to try and keep my neighborhood safe.

It appears ICE murdered someone in cold blood today and their plan is — per usual — to create a fog of lies so the killer does not face justice. We simply can't let that happen. The shooter has to be arrested and so does Bovino. They can't just kill people on the street.

That video shows a murder. Full stop.

I hope that folks have learned enough to know that the Nazis are going to kick into high gear with their propaganda.

Leftists need to be DISCIPLINED in messaging and action.

If I was a civil servant & I had a stack of files on my desk representing vulnerable people desperately seeking help while my own government was racing the clock to commit as much social murder as possible before someone stops them, I'd be rubber stamping those files as fast as possible right now.

This strategy doesn't work in a democracy--too many people to threaten. It can only work against authoritarian states
