Looking forward to seeing local businesses saying to bring in your photo like this for a free whatever they sell.
I'm starting to think the Trumpist mastery of propaganda is failing them. The DHS agents posing this way makes it look like they're ashamed of themselves.

I'm annoying about not avoiding jury duty for a reason.
Thirty-one known defendants have been charged in Chicago with non-immigration crimes tied to “Operation Midway Blitz.”
With today’s acquittal, 15 of them have been cleared.
No one has been convicted.

Golden is retiring.
The filing deadline has passed in NC; Davis is the only Dem running.
The filing deadline has passed in TX; Gonzalez & Cuellar both have primary opponents.
Gillen has several Dem opponents as well, as does Perez.
If you want to primary Suozzi, you still have until 3/30.

I grew up in Texas with a Texan grandfather whose first language was German and I only found out THIS decade about the Texas Germans who were murdered by the Confederacy at the Nueces massacre for being abolitionists.
Respectfully, I am going to whisper to some of our white comrades a truth that should be more widely known: You definitely have some ancestors to be proud of, ancestors who refused white supremacy, and poured out their lives in many of these struggles over time.
Time to claim your true history.

ICE should be dismantled immediately.
I will not support funding for the Department of Homeland Security when ICE and Border Patrol agents are assaulting protestors, detaining and arresting people with impunity, inciting violence, and shooting and killing American citizens.

The man who murdered Renee Good recorded it himself and does the training.
🚨NEWS: Senate Dems are reportedly offering ICE funding increases in exchange for body cams and de-escalation training for agents.
Body cams can be turned off. De-escalation training can be ignored.
Unclear if no masks, requiring ID badges, and no immunity is on the table.
