Girl, are you Taye Diggs in Equilbrium (2002) because I feel like the climax with you will be very disappointing and strange despite a long build up

It’s entirely legal to record LE officers from your car. So they’re brazenly, illegally terrorizing this woman for exercising her constitutional rights.

Yet we know that none of these officers be held accountable. We know this administration encourages this behavior.

This is police state stuff.
This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here.

Here’s a $75,000 contract Hootsuite sold to Calgary police for social media surveillance in 2023.
Not sure why anyone would be interested in that though.

Recall that Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered not long ago by a fake cop who showed up at their door looking like this guy
This is from Georgia Fort’s video.

DEA?!? Gotta be a “task force.”

If you live in the US and you’re white, unless you’re very lucky, you’re dealing with the awareness that a good-size chunk of your family not only would go Nazi if given the chance, but were given the chance and took it without any hesitation, and are Nazis now, so that’s what they were all along.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

The type of people who can engage in this behavior need to be kept away from society
ICE detain yet another minor child—chase him down his own street and tackle him to pavement.

"I am legal! I am legal!" he cries over and over in Spanish.

Agent pins the boy down in snow—he desperately tries to keep his exposed hands from freezing at -25°F wind chill temperature.

So er, I don't want to be alarmist my Canadian friends but it's not a GREAT sign when the superpower next door starts talking about how the people of a resource rich region of yours yearn for the freedom to join them and suggesting referendums...
Bessent pushes Albertan independence from Canada: "Albertans are very independent people. There's a rumor they may have a referendum on whether they want to stay in Canada or not. People are talking. People want sovereignty. They want what the US has got."

This is a 16-year old girl who was carrying documentation and was pulled over with her documented friend, also 16. This is what they did to both.

You don’t know your role yet maybe, but we are all finding out just what we have to offer.

In Minneapolis, one man knew immediately what he could offer and said “Bring me your clothing”.

Early press accounts, presumably informed by DHS, claimed that the teenage girl in the first photo and another teen passenger were arrested after "colliding" with a vehicle driven by federal immigration officials.

The second photo depicts the "collision."

As someone who had the lowest possible expectations for Democratic leadership and electeds, watching Democrats in Congress see my neighbors brutalized by a government hellbent on causing us harm and then clumsily change the topic is… radicalizing
