Right now it's all hands on deck to respond to ICE's goons kidnapping people off our streets.

But there needs to be real accountability for how Frey and his team spent millions of dollars to hype racist, anti-Somali smears to win an election with zero concern for the consequences.

I feel it is my responsibility as your mainstream comic book friend to further explain that what dc is doing to Gretchen is unprecedented

They haven’t only cancelled the series, they are refunding the comics that are already created and recalling the issue that is already sold.
Hello everyone. You may know Gretchen Felker-Martin has once again been suspended from bc they do that whenever some chud complains. Her brand-new ongoing DC series was also cancelled for the same reason. It’s stupid fascist bullshit as usual. Gretchen’s work rules. Consider supporting her here:

NEW — Video taken by a witness and shared with me tonight from DC’s Trinidad neighborhood shows FBI and Secret Service agents patrolling by foot and peering into cars with flashlights.

(Per witness, residents made fun of agents, saying they can't get women and that's why they were doing this lol)

The exchange at the Oval Office before the press pool entered:

Trump to Bukele: "Home-growns are next. The home-growns. You gotta build about five more places. It's not big enough."

Bukele: "We got space."

Everyone laughs.
