The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

“My heart and my best intentions tell me that's true, but the facts and evidence tell me it is not.”
The fact that they immediately started pushing a narrative about her motivations is enough to know that everything out of their mouths is in bad faith.
That’s not how any proper law enforcement agency handles something like this.
A fascist dictatorship lying about their agenda and distorting the truth? Say it ain't so.
No shit, they started lying in January
They started lying in 2003
TIL that ICE was formed only after Sept 11
Before that we had “INS”, and they weren’t militarized to nearly this level.
I don’t know how old most folks on here are, but on 9/11 I was a sophomore in college in upstate NY. Our entire culture changed over night. The 90s were truly over and a new, dark, dystopian world began to emerge in a way that previously privileged folks in this country could feel viscerally.
Some of my friends didn’t come back from the wars. Others did but they lost their souls along the way. Bin Laden could not have possibly been more successful in what he was trying to do.
I was 23. I remember.
I was in a crib. I feel nostalgia for an era I never existed in. But the more I learn about our country’s real history, the more I realize that our governments hands were never clean, we were just more insulated from it
If this guy was so traumatized by the idea of being run over he wouldn't be standing directly in front of a car.
He was clearly standing next to the car when he shot Mrs. Good in the face, murdering her. He followed up calling her a "fucking bitch" which can only be considered an aggravating circumstance indicative of a potential hate crime.
The government is protecting a murderer, and calling an innocent woman with no criminal history whatsoever a "terrorist".
Fascists gonna fascist.
Somebody collected as many DHS lies as possible: https://cst.brightspotcdn.com/49/34/daecfb4d4b86971a884bd736a564/ellisopinion.pdf - looks like part of a court case? Hopefully.
One thing pisses me off is how little effort they put into their lies. Like they have a set of MAGA fridge magnets. Mostly it's just "Tren de Aragua" over and over again. Not in this case though because, you know, she was "white". They really went the extra mile, inventing a special narrative just for her. Ugh, I feel dirty now and I hate my own cynicism.
