Just finished watching the Netflix documentary "Cover-Up", an insightful look at the outstanding investigative journalist Seymour M. Hersh. His historic breakthrough stories from My Lai to Iraq, corporate misdeeds and CIA shenanigans, have been both praised and maligned. A must-see for our times.🤔

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.
