"#Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by #immigration agents. They’ve had their necks kneeled on. They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear. At least three #citizens were pregnant when agents detained them. One of those women had already had the door of her home blown off while Department of #HomelandSecurity Secretary #KristiNoem watched."

#MAGA, do you support this treatment of your fellow citizens? Or do you feel safe and secure because of your skin? If so, must you then admit this is a war on brown people? You can lie to US if you wish, but try to be honest with yourself: do you think you are good?

Their words echo through headlines and press conferences: cities out of control, #immigrants invading, protesters turning violent.

Still, the #President insists #America needs soldiers in its streets. He claims protection, but what he’s really after is #obedience."

What is the future of the #American #city? Look to #Portland. Look to #Chicago:

"To be clear: this is now and this is the future. Trump is both creating a test run for our police state, and providing the resources for it to become stronger over time, when he utilizes other authorities, such as the #InsurrectionAct."
