These reforms are eerily similar to the ones that didn’t end police brutality.

But made it just palatable enough for people who presume they won’t personally be targeted to go back to looking away.
SCHUMER says Democrats are “united” behind three DHS reforms

1/ End roving patrols; tighten the rules on warrants and require ICE to coordinate with local authorities.

2/ Enforce accountability; a uniform code of conduct.

3/ Require masks off, body cameras on, agents carry ID.

Don't let me catch you hating on Chuck Schumer on here. The man has been in office since 1980. I *think* he knows a little something about politics. Do not ask me what's happened to politics since 1980 please

As a reminder, people moved to whistles after this regime got their billionaire buddies to pull apps that were created to help keep our neighbors safe from the app store. They closed down social media groups where people were collaborating next.

I'll never leave home without a whistle again.

Abolish DHS. If you can imagine a world before Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, you can imagine a world without the Department of Homeland Security. My latest at @startribune.com. (gift link)
Perry: Abolish ICE? How about DHS altogether.
"We have models for how to structure federal immigration oversight that doesn't rely on an unaccountable masked secret police force running rampant in our streets," David M. Perry writes.

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

I genuinely think boycotting the World Cup is some of the strongest leverage the Europeans have.

I guess I just don't take what people living in other countries say about the U.S. personally. I live in the heart of empire. There's a lot to be pissed off at the U.S. about. I understand their anger.

i was talking with someone in the twin cities about how it’s not even accurate to call them protesters. they’re literally just people protecting their city from TERRORISTS.
Every time the Trump regime uses the words "funded protesters" and "outside agitators" news outlets need to cut to this photo from last week.

ICE has invaded these communities. Outside agitators don't show up in their fucking bathrobes.

We are so far beyond "show us your papers." They don't want to see the papers. We are now into the "give us the names" stage of the occupation.

(not sure if there's a better word than 'inspiration' since I have only modified some elements, I do love Gunn's love for his subject 🥰)

This. We can break the videos down frame-by-frame, but as long as they show a woman who rejected the authority of a fascist state, fascists will say she deserved it—and so, in their view, does anyone who isn't actively assisting the fascist state in body or, importantly, belief.
they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.
In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

Gay marriage has been legal in the United States for over a decade. Stop calling Renee Gold's widow her "partner" like you don't know what the right terminology is. We know what word she used: she is on video calling Renee "my wife." You don't need to equivocate. You wouldn't do it to a straight man

If you're worried about homophobes dismissing Renee's murder if you use the word "wife", why? You're not going to persuade them and they'll find out anyway.

If you're uncomfortable saying the word "wife" to refer to a woman married to another woman, congratulations: you are the homophobe.

ICE just murdered a woman here in Minneapolis. A legal observer. Shot her multiple times while she drove away as ordered. She was a US citizen.

Absolute, unequivocal, cold-blooded murder by Trump’s gestapo.

Abolish ICE, jail for everyone in charge. This is the lowest bar we accept now.
