". . . Melania, a ghastly parade of fun-house mirror herstory, will certainly be relegated to the footnotes of her family’s deeper atrocities. I would have asked what my fellow attendees thought, but not even a plastic cup of wine could help wash down the film in its entirety." Inae Oh, Mother Jones
Voters like a politician who they can identify with, like looking into a mirror. So, do you want to be a selfish, greedy, narcissist who needs to put his name on the Kennedy Center to feel better about himself or do you care about others first and want to the best for others?
Having seen the movie "Melania," I can say it is as empty and vapid as the fashion model's head.
ICE is upset that ICE isn't welcome in restaurants after ICE ordered food at a restaurant, ate it, then arrested restaurant employees, and ICE believes this is someone else's fault, do I have that right?
The legacy of Miller, Noem, Homan, Bovino and Lewandowski
They brought a police state to life on the US. They have become federal agents with duties that they think includes becoming judge, jury and executioner
It is obscene
It is un-American
It is MAGA
Human beings with capacity to commit evil
Having prosecuted several civil rights cases involving excessive force, the instructors at police academies that emphasize deadly force in police tactics end up creating a police force that uses them too frequently.
It is sort of tragic that none of those methods have been effective.
Unfortunately, there is so much the West doesn't understand about Hezbollah's politics that it doesn't realize that this trans-national entity probably cannot be eliminated using military force.
It's interesting to me that racism always seems to be at the core of a fascist public policy agenda. It seems to go right to the center of the power dynamics in a fascist's mind.
United States immigration policy, which is obviously the federal government's number one political priority, is so obviously racist at its core (being built on the fear of dilution of "white Christian values") that I have a really hard time wrapping my head around it just for understanding it.
That sounds very sane and lovely.
One picture speaks a thousand words.
It looks like an execution.
Do we really know what is actually going on in the detention centers?
True. But unchecked power and dehumanization often lead to genocide.
When do we find out who the guys were that shot Pretti after disarming him?
Like Anne Frank, immigrant children stay in their homes living in fear of going outside and being arrested.
There is no statute of limitations on the crime of murder. When Trump is out of power, these guys will be prosecuted.
@juniper19850107.bsky.social State violence doesn’t require a genocidal ideology to become brutal—only unchecked power and dehumanization.

Donuts and coffee! Yummm!
Donald Trump, Steven Miller, and Christy Noem are all accessories to murder and extra-judicial execution.
Here is the testimony of a physician at the scene of the Pretti shooting:
