I believe we need to teach our children and grandchildren to think and research. I tell them not to vote for who I do because I do, know what and who you are voting for instead of being a follower.

The Trump admin is moving to quickly deport two men who witnessed, they say, ICE guards choke a fellow detainee to death.
The admin moved to deport men right after they spoke the Washington Post.
This is the death that the medical examiner has already ruled likely homicide.

DHS seeking to deport two men who said fellow ICE detainee was killed
The two men’s eyewitness accounts of the Jan. 3 death of Geraldo Lunas Campos at a Texas detention camp differ from the Department of Homeland Security’s account of the incident.

Over the last week, we’ve seen federal agents arresting, threatening, and using force against innocent bystanders.
They have carried out enforcement actions in schools, at hospitals, and in one horrific instance shot and killed someone.

A married couple was shot in Portland by federal agents. Early reports indicate the agents involved were US Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The individuals were taken to the hospital. The reason shots were fired has not been publicly explained. More details to come as information is confirmed.

As Trump tells the public not to trust their own eyes, voices across the military, law enforcement, and former ICE agents are calling this a murder.
This is exactly what I told someone yesterday.
Even if I spot you the first shot (I shouldn’t, but let’s go with that), shots 2 and 3 were inexcusable and this officer will lose his case if it ever goes to court.
