A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

We'll say it again because certain people need to hear it: pay for federal workers accounts for just 4.3% of the budget.
If the federal government were to fire every single worker, it would only reduce government spending by less than 5%.
What DOGE is doing is just cruelty.
