Here’s a comment for the people who are upset that MN hasn’t charged Jonathan Ross already: If you just Leeeroy Jenkins this shit you will lose and you will empower fascism and murder. It is indescribably hard to prosecute cops for murder. It is even hard when the murder is ON VIDEO. /1
More people are going to be murdered by ICE. It’s clear. The tactics ensure it, ICE is getting more furious and being disagreed with or resisted in any way, the verminous administration supports them and has shown they will tell any lie to support ICE murdering people. /1
Expect to see a surge of proud ignorance and proplawganda about what you can say about ICE agent Jonathan Ross, identified by local media as the person who shot and killed Renee Good. In particular, expect a repeat of Rittenhouse-era “accusing him of murder is defamation” rhetoric. It’s not. /1
It is the position of the Trump Administration that its agents can come into any state and city in America (let alone other countries) and kill people and that state and city have no jurisdiction to inquire about it. Treat any Trump official accordingly. RE:

Noem on Minnesota officials: "They have not been cut out. They don't have any jurisdiction in this investigation."
1. ICE will kill you. 2. Trumpists will lie to justify it. 3. Because they are all thug trash.
Escalation to watch for: civil and criminal threats against people calling the ICE murder a murder, especially state and local officials and members of Congress. The regime must constantly escalate.

Anyone else have a shower door just spontaneously absolutely explode into pieces? Fortunately nobody was there.
Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich not to throw a huge embarrassing snit over not having his ego fluffed. RE:
