Even in this age of police bodycams and bystander videos, there are certain categories of footage that most media organizations won’t share with the public.

But it’s hard to imagine today’s media suppressing, as they did in 1937, footage from the anti-labor crackdown that resulted in 10 deaths.
The bloody labor crackdown Paramount didn't want America to see
Executives feared their newsreel footage would "cause riots and mass hysteria.”

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Apparently, along with no longer liking free speech and due process, the United States now embraces cruel and unusual punishment.

As the House debates this bill which robs from the poor to give to the rich, I am reminded of a verse from Scripture:

Speak out for those who cannot speak, for the rights of all the destitute. Speak out, judge righteously, defend the rights of the poor and needy.

Proverbs 31:8

Thanks for your vote of confidence…I guess?!

Unlike you, I’d actually be focused on the American people—the issues they’re facing, making sure folks have healthcare, and consulting with Congress before dropping bombs on another country.

There’s a small percentage of MAGA nut jobs who want this. Nobody else in America wants this. This is all about Trump’s ego. And since Republicans in Congress have abdicated their responsibility as a check on the executive, this will be another thing for voters to punish them on.
