The lack of imagination amongst journalists is really a problem.
Case in point: WaPo is a corpse. Its rotting and decaying, yet people are still braying and praying for its resurrection.
Go start a new paper. Oh but that's hard, no brand, no reputation <whining continues...>

We are here for peace, and that depends almost entirely on how long we have a supply of non-combatants to attack.
Homan in Minnesota: "My goal, with the support of President Trump, is to achieve a complete draw down and end this surge as soon as we can. But that is largely contingent upon the end of the illegal and threatening activities against ICE and its federal partners that we're seeing in the community."

DHS is still crime-ing with impunity and immunity.

I've personally had barely any ICE encounters. I've done patrolling when I can. And my body is just yelling at me that it's wrecked.
Even doing a little bit is fucking taxing. Everyone doing more is a superhero, and I don't think folks who haven't been involved in an occupation understand the toll.
