Where we are today…
Since ICE shot and killed Renee Good in Minneapolis, protests against ICE have broken out across the nation.
In response, ICE agents in Minnesota have increased their violent attacks, many of which have involved US citizens. And captured on video.
Agents breaking into a home with weapons drawn, a teenager dragged away from his job, agents guarding a restroom at Target, engaging in door-to-door searches without warrants, using illegal chokeholds, dragging people out of their cars.
Confronted with footage of officers using prohibited chokeholds, WH spokesperson told reporters, “Officers act heroically to enforce the law and protect American communities.”
On Air Force One Sunday evening, Trump cut to the chase on attacks on those resisting ICE when, speaking about Renee Good, he told reporters: “At a very minimum, that woman was very, very disrespectful to law enforcement.”
As was pointed out, if Capitol police were allowed to shoot and kill for disrespect, January 6, 2021 would have been a bloodbath.
Now, apparently running out of other enemies to blame for the chaos, Fox News warned that “organized gangs of wine moms” are using “Antifa tactics to harass and impede Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.” Claiming that those people organizing to protect their neighborhoods from ICE may be “criminal conspiracies.” Complaining of “self-important White women” protesting “with a weird and disturbing glee.” Threatening them by warning: “if we simply allow these cosplaying would-be revolutionaries to do whatever they want…, Renee Good will not be the last to needlessly die.”
Later Fox continued the new storyline: “There’s a weird kind of smugness...in the way that some of these liberal white women interact with authority.”
P.S. The only real enemy is sitting in the Oval Office.
Americans do not want to answer to ICE and CBP agents, decked out as if they are a war zone. Parading in groups through the suburbs, cosplaying as military heroes. They are not worthy, or deserving of, respect. They look both lawless and foolish. And rather than hiding as expected, Americans are forming squads to alert neighborhoods to their presence. Escorting children to and from school. Helping feed neighbors who are afraid to leave their homes.
All this while our president encourages Iranian protests against their leadership. Threatening to send in American might to help them do so.
While doing the exact opposite to his own people.
And lest we forget the underlying reason for all of this, as Trump visited a Michigan Ford plant, 40-year-old T.J. Sabula, a United Auto Workers Local 600 line worker, shouted “pedophile protector” at him in reference to the administration’s cover-up of the Epstein files. Trump responded by giving him the finger and mouthing “f*ck you, f*ck you.”
And the worker is now under investigation. While the Epstein files are still hidden.
Welcome to the GOP police state. Happy now?
