This really makes it sound like a Border Patrol agent tried to kill an anti-ICE activist in Chicago and DHS lied to cover for him

The president has not called out Boston as a city in need of a military presence, but Boston has been doing battle with the Trump administration in other ways for months. Most local elected leaders are united against any National Guard presence. But the nation, and some in the city, are split.

I believe this to my core. They're using trans people as a test case to dismantle individual rights in the US.
Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth

You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people

Maura Healey evaded having to comment on this story last week because “we don’t know all the details.”

Well, here are the details. And they make it even worse. Abolish ICE and salt the earth of the office after.

In 2017, centrists and liberals told antifascist activists that the institutions would hold and the State would preserve basic democratic rights.

Now the country is being hollowed out by literal billionaires making Hitler salutes. This should be on the cover of every newspaper.
Following Elon Musk, the world's richest man, two speakers at CPAC, Steve Bannon, who was pardoned by Donald Trump, and Mexican actor Eduardo Verástegui, have now given Nazi salutes.

This is a major scandal + should push us all to mobilize, protest, and call out #CPAC for what it is: a Nazi rally.

no one ever asked for an "engaging" refrigerator. we want it to keep our food cold and not cost too much. if my refrigerator ever starts talking to me i will empty a .308 into it
Hell. You are describing hell. Nobody wants an “interactive and engaging” dishwasher. They just want their dishes cleaned. www.forbes.com/sites/bernar...
