It’s clear from the video this woman had just come to the park to play with her child. She said as much and was upset that there were masked men with guns in the park.
Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino calls the woman an “activist” and Andy Ngo says the woman was using her child as a “human shield.”

helps to think about the details like any regular crime you'd see on one of the 800 cop shows that run on TV constantly: these guys committed one set of murders, thought it over, and then decided to kill the witnesses as part of the coverup. mention of drugs is just jingling keys at this point

That's the part that sticks with me.
This isn't some Tom Clancy novel where they do war crimes because it's the only way they can get at the evil terrorist criminal mastermind or something.
Even if we believe them -- and, ha ha, no! -- they murdered low level drug runners. That's it!

The Supreme Court majority has decided that they are the fact-finders, and the facts are what they want them to be, and quite frankly if District Courts disagree, they can pound sand because they're not the ones in charge.
They're right about the last part. But the damage they're doing is longterm.

Vaccinating babies against hepatitis B is a simple recommendation that saves lives—one based on solid science, & that has led to a dramatic drop in preventable infections and deaths.
