"CBP’s arrest and misconduct rate is 5 TIMES higher than other federal law enforcement agencies — and, in fact, if you look over the last decade, the arrest rate of CBP officers and Border Patrol agents (.5%) has been HIGHER than the arrest rate of undocumented immigrants in the U.S. (.4%)."
Curious why ICE and CBP agents are so brutal? Here's a useful explainer I wrote last week, before Saturday's outrageous murder, about how uniquely unsuited ICE and CBP are for this moment—and why they were so corruptible into Trump's own fascist secret police: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-101-ho...
"ICE 101" — How Trump changed ICE and CBP into a fascist secret police

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Superbly put.
Seriously, this is way out beyond impeachment territory and into involuntary commitment territory. This is less "this guy shouldn't be President" and more "this guy shouldn't have access to scissors."

Even relatively inattentive voters know that 1) Trump said he’d bring down prices and make the economy great; 2) prices are not lower and the economy is not great; and 3) now he’s lying in our faces about it.
