And DHS has been desperately trying to get these three witnesses to self deport. ICE has been using the “weaponized vehicle” excuse to murder people for a decade plus. It’s all coming out now with the microscope on them.

All 3 men inside of the van with Lorenzo Salgado Araujo “‘reiterated that there were never any ICE agents in front of the van…They came in and started shooting from the sides.’”

Robert Reich

ICE agents weren't wearing body cameras when they killed Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. The three men who were with him are reportedly being detained separately and getting pressured to self-deport — while refuting ICE’s story. What is ICE trying to cover up?

If you’re not alarmed you’re not paying attention.

Trump’s decision to push out the last remaining members of the federal Election Assistance Commission — two Democrats and a Republican — allows him to try to nominate members who may be more amenable to his demands. by @jenafifield.bsky.social

NEW from @propublica: Trump pushes out remaining members of bipartisan election commission ahead of midterms

Fascism is harder to pull off when everyone is running around with little video cameras in their pockets, and can easily share the footage of bad deeds with the world.

Jonathan Cohn

ICE lied because they always do.

Harry Litman

Predictable and completely infuriating. ICE appears to have concocted the same story as in the murder of Renee good— that victim “weaponized his vehicle” & ir was self-defense.The victim had been in the country 35 years raised three sons never a criminal violation.

Mueller, She Wrote

A Police Executive Research Forum report from 2014 showed that CBP officers were purposely placing themselves in front of moving vehicles, and then shooting at them. This isn’t something that can be reformed. Abolish ICE.

If anyone is getting smacked with this - just use deer.social or another alternate client. Bsky is just an AT Protocol Client, and your Bsky account is an AT Protocol account - you can use your same Bsky account thru another AT Protocol Client, no migration or loss necessary. Could not be easier.

auggie

a positive of decentralized platforms is that you can just use another client to access the same content. imagine you wanna go to a bar that all your friends are at, bsky is just the car that gets you there. if the car gives you issues, the bar isn't gone. just use another car same login deer.social

Phosphorshy

deer.social isn't maintained these days (been over a year since the last commit- ), witchsky.app would be a much better choice imo

Alarming story that confirms my own reporting along similar lines: Dan Moraff, the political strategist who plucked Graham Platner out of obscurity to run for senate and barely vetted him, was barred from Rep. Summer Lee’s 2022 campaign after three complaints of sexual misconduct.

Mike Elk

Congresswoman Summer Lee barred Daniel Moraff from her campaign over sexual misconduct complaints that Lee received about Moraff. Moraff is being ridiculed for not properly vetting Platner, but our investigation shows Moraff was hiding his own sexual misconduct issues

“Spending $700 million to bail out the coal industry is like throwing a lifeline to a ship that has already sunk.”

Bruce Little

Solar energy just provided more electricity in the US than coal for the 1st time on record. So, spending $700 million to bail out the coal industry is like throwing a lifeline to a ship that has already sunk. All the president’s men might not be able to put the coal industry back together again.

So ICE has thugs wearing “media” vests and masks filming protesters, something that is totally normal in a democracy

Switzerland put solar panels in the unused space between train tracks. They are removeable, so you can still work on the tracks. And it's working!

Black leaders across the South have expressed a visceral shock in the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision gutting the Voting Rights Act. But as the surprise wears off, a sense of isolation has begun to set in among some. 🔗 politi.co/4vSW46T

Dems chasing a mythical Great White Hope and refusing to take the South seriously even when Black women like Stacey Abrams delivered proof of concept and because IT IS THE RIGHT AND JUST THING TO DO are two sides of the same problem
