Iran’s supreme leader signals harsher crackdown as protest movement swells
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei calls protesters ‘vandals’ and ‘saboteurs’ and blames the US for instigating the unrest
A torrent of untruths, half-truths, smears, and innuendo has been unleashed by the White House,
and amplified by its social media and cable television acolytes,
in an attempt to douse the flames over the killing of #reneenicolegood
Hakeem Jeffries, the Democratic House minority leader, called homeland security secretary
#Kristi #Noem a “stone cold liar”
on Thursday for her efforts to falsely portray the victim Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old mother of three and award-winning poet, as a “domestic terrorist”.
Jacob Frey, the Democratic mayor of Minneapolis, condemned as “#bullshit” a concerted push by homeland security officials and others to immediately paint the officer’s action as self-defense
-- when video of the incident is unclear at best, and an investigation had yet to begin.
“People in positions of power have already passed judgment,
from the president to the vice-president, to Kristi Noem …
[they] have stood and told you things that are verifiably false,
verifiably inaccurate,”
Tim Walz, Minnesota’s Democratic governor, told a press conference on Thursday.
The #victim-#blaming began almost immediately that news broke of Good’s killing on Wednesday.
#Tricia #McLaughlin, assistant secretary of the homeland security department, a regular administration spokesperson for ICE, declared in a post on X that “one of these violent rioters weaponized her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them
– an act of domestic terrorism”.
Multiple ICE officers were hurt, she insisted, 🔥when videos of the shooting showed no such thing.
Of course the ‘beloved’ British #ukgovernment has never been known for blame-shifting, buck-passing, side-stepping, or any other euphamism to cover their own incompetence.
They will be #blaming the immigrant #workers next as they could have been the overworked cleaners of the corridors before overcrowding and lack of care-homes caused the corridors to overflow.
Just admit it you are, and never were, fit for purpose.

Amnd what do they do for the people = Nothing, as usual. Only blaming and ignoring real challenges and instead spreading nonsense shit and talking points.
