Why would a trained agent stand in front of a car driven by a "domestic terrorist"?

Maybe if he couldn't wait for the smallest excuse to fire his weapon.

So clear ICE agent was in fear of his life since after shooting the domestic terrorist, he immediately holsters weapon and casually walks towards the car. Meanwhile, the 3 other agents immediately turn their backs, get in their truck, and eventually leave a crime scene.

ICE agents clearly in fear for their lives since the shooter immediately holsters his gun after the shots and casually walks towards the domestic terrorist before being 100% sure the threat is neutralized. Plus, the other agents turn their backs and get back into their truck. Highly trained.

They already have for decades. Can you guess why everyone is finally noticing?

But he's ultra-rich so that proves he must be worth admiring, trusting, and an expert in everything.

Remember when a country bombing another country and kidnapping their president and his wife meant the invading country must be the bad guys?

Provoke a war.
Officially declare war.
Suspend elections.
Retain power.
Profit from war.
Wash, rinse, repeat.

The cavalry isn't coming.
It's up to us.
Time to rebel.

If you're right it would be because we're not as brave as the people who fought to bring 80 year old Duterte to justice.

Neither the US nor Venezuela want to "combat" global drug trafficking. They want to CONTROL it.

Drug trafficking is too lucrative to both governments and the ultra-rich.

Ever wonder how luxury brands remain in business when their stores have zero customers?

I use a sunrise alarm clock; especially helpful in the winter. It simulates an earlier sunrise so waking is more natural.

Just a reminder, only 33% of eligible voters voted for this criminal regime. Be careful when you say "America".

The largest cult with unaware followers is the modern money-cult, aka "Economics".

The indoctrination starts immediately because adults aren't aware it exists.

Like religion, the money-cult is immune to criticism and rejection; until it's not.

I have dozens of foreign friends and this is exactly what they say and think. I keep reminding them that only 33% of eligible voters voted for this criminal regime, but that was enough. There's still hope. Rise. Resist. Rebel.
