If I were the social media manager of a police department that was found to have routinely violated the civil rights of the community it serves, and also had to pay out $200K for a sexual harassment lawsuit a mere month ago, I would simply not post things like this.
But that's just me!

The execution of Alex Pretti is playing so badly because you can look at his actions and life story - his last act was helping, boy scout, athlete, health care worker to veterans - and compare those to the men who killed him and know which you would want to be your son, brother, father, uncle.

I’m trying to understand Republicans’ latest interpretation of the 2nd Amendment. You can now be executed by federal agents if you possess a firearm? Even after you are disarmed? I’m just trying to keep your position straight on this “shall not be infringed” stuff.

At the least, Pierre Lavie deserves a special Pulitzer citation. His image shows how journalists are risking their lives to report the lies and unconstitutional behavior of the Trump regime. Journalism matters, especially in a media ecosystem awash in right-wing lies.
