A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Corporate Democrats don’t want to abolish ICE because they helped make it what it is today and they focus on training because they want to retain a robust force but would rather they weren’t so openly fascistic

We’ve been in a good cop bad cop situation our entire lives and it’s past time to see it

Holy shit. Trump has lost the “military should slaughter BLM protesters” NYT. You KNOW your racism has gone too far when they’re out.
Alex Pretti was already restrained when federal agents shot and killed him in Minneapolis, a New York Times analysis of video shows. The footage contradicts the Department of Homeland Security’s account of the shooting.
Timeline: How the Shooting of Alex Jeffrey Pretti Unfolded
A moment-by-moment analysis of video from the scene shows that Mr. Pretti was already restrained when fatal shots were fired, which appears to contradict the federal government’s account of the event.

great replacement inspired numerous mass shootings carried out by white supremacists and society still allowed the gop to make it their raison d’etre

there have been so many obvious signposts about where this was going and it should be a permanent stain on anyone who ignored them

the greatest sins of both Reconstruction and postwar Europe is that we didn't kill nearly enough Confederates and Nazis, respectively. The executions should have been in the hundreds, if not thousands.

I firmly believe police advocate for gun rights so that they can shoot anyone they want. Everybody in the world having a gun makes their jobs more dangerous. But it also allows them to murder at will. Which is why they became cops.

DHS told Fox News the suspect was armed with a gun, which has been recovered by federal agents.

Immigration is a fake problem. We have politicians on the one hand who want to use immigrants as scapegoats for our real ones and politicians on the other who are too cowardly to stand against them and tell the truth. That is the entire situation. Until that changes, people will continue to die.

This fucking asshole decided the thing to do with your tax money was give it to ICE.
Fucking dumb piece of shit.
I’ll keep plugging away to make sure that Americans’ hard-earned tax dollars are being invested in an effective, durable, and responsible way.

The reason everything sucks is because journalists are the dumbest assholes on the planet. Will just believe any dumb shit you say.

One court decision, two different headlines.

Guardian on the left, NY Times on the right. Which one more directly conveys information and the stakes to the reader?

This is the thing NYT does. If there are 1,000 people to ask, they’ll ask them all and then print the dumbest, most vile, far right answer from the pool of experts. They’ll find the one in a million dentist that says toothpaste is bad. It’s so blatantly dishonest.
Why is crime falling? We asked the worst and dumbest people in America to explain it

My hatred for the NYT runs so deep not just because they are fascist and complicit but because I *KNOW* the political class reads it.

My work at NYT was cited in so many govt documents. Shit the reason I got to do this story is Al Gore's people reached out because they'd read my NYT stuff

Our city has been over-run by Nazi ghouls kidnapping people to traffic them to concentration camps and other countries.

If states would simply terrorize their OWN citizens, Trump wouldn’t have to. You see, you deserve this.

Man, if you still work at WaPo or NYT, you would have happily done Nazi propaganda. Sorry. You need to know that about yourself.
