the Chinese practice their parades for months, sometimes years - this is not conducive to actual military readiness but it does look good! the sloppiness and half-assedness of this is indicative of both the general vibe of Hegseth's Pentagon and the lack of US tradition here.

Any person in uniform wearing a mask and refusing to be properly and reliably identified should be assumed to be the same kind of murderer we’ve seen in Minnesota.
Shooters were dressed like law enforcement and this is exactly why I’m pissed about ice officers wearing masks, driving unmarked cars and not being identifiable when they terrorize communities

“…there is not a day that goes by when I am not, for at least a few minutes, stunned like a deer in headlights by the weight of the unnecessary pain that is being caused — when I am overwhelmed by the sheer breadth and depth of it all.” yeah.
Someone wrote to ask me, "is it okay to be overwhelmed?"
They go on to say that they worry they're "letting our side down" by being overwhelmed by the sheer breadth and depth of all of the attacks on basic human dignity being perpetuated by MAGA and MAHA, by the Trump Regime...

Every extra hour that ICE spends facing off with activists is an hour they can't spend kidnapping other people.
Every extra minute ICE has to spend contingency planning around activists and neighbors, every extra officer ICE has to put on a kidnap squad, is a drain on their efficiency.

Keep in mind. Trump isn’t giving all these ICE Agents directions individually. They are choosing to do this. Stealing money. Making girls stand in the rain in their underwear. That’s their choice. Because people who chose to be ICE Agents chose it for pain it causes.
Please highlight this story.
ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago.
