Bodycam video contradicts ICE claims in fatal shooting of U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez in Texas
Video of last year's fatal shooting of Ruben Ray Martinez obtained by CBS News appears to contradict claims that Martinez was shot by an ICE agent because he "accelerated" and "intentionally ran over"...
DHS claimed "an ICE agent had fired 'defensive shots' into Martinez's vehicle after Martinez 'intentionally ran over' another agent."
But body cam video now "shows that Martinez's vehicle, a blue Ford Fusion, was stationary or going at a very low rate of speed when he was fatally shot."

For those keeping track, we’re at the “secretary of war announces genocide” stage of the US descent into fascism.

Iran's FM condemns US attack on Qeshm's freshwater desalination plant, warns of grave consequences
US President Donald Trump announced that Iran promised not to attack its neighbours anymore
Multiple news outlets are reporting a US attack on an Iranian #desalination plant.
If verified, this violates international law protecting #water systems during wars, and it sets a dangerous precedent, given intense dependence of Gulf countries on desalination.

Worth watching the whole clip, but purely in propaganda terms it seems to me, admittedly just an amateur observer when it comes to war fighting, that it may be useful to send the message to the 91+ million Iranian civilians that we are not trying to kill them.

Congress Is Considering Abolishing Your Right to Be Anonymous Online
The bipartisan push to remove anonymity from the internet is ushering in an era of unprecedented mass surveillance and censorship.
You should be able to criticize your government anonymously online.
Full stop.
"Age verification" legislation is just a pretty name for "forced online ID checks," meaning everything you post is associated with your government name
We have to stop this.

The DOJ has been taking down Epstein files. Here's what remains.
The massive tranche of files the Justice Department currently maintains is more than 65,000 pages shorter than what the agency initially released.

McGovern: How the hell is this America first? You guys broke your top campaign promise. Good luck with that. I hope the defense contractor money was worth it. Shame on you all. The mask is off. You're all just a bunch of pathetic Neocon Warmongers.

Billboard ad for public transit visible from a freeway filled with cars and congestion, that says “You are not stuck in traffic. You ARE traffic.”
One of the best of all time.
“You’re not stuck in traffic. You ARE traffic.”
Wish we had come up with that one. #UrbanTruth

Exactly. He’s not the only American available.
No one’s trying to send him to Nazi jail.

Certain is irrelevant here. This is not a courtroom.
There’s over 350 million Americans.
The number of them who have checked as many Nazi boxes as GP is microscopic.
We can do better.
He’s a big boy, he’ll survive this.
If he wants to serve his country, there’s plenty of other ways.

‘Nazi heaven’: Inside Miami campus Republicans’ racist group chat
The chat is the subject of a Florida International University police investigation.
The secretary of Miami-Dade County’s GOP started a group chat for conservative students — and within 3 weeks, it was filled with over 400 instances of the N-word, Nazi rhetoric and writings of "dozens of ways of violently killing Black people"

Golden Boy (1939)
I’m too hard & cynical to be affected by such a by-the-numbers, cookie-cutter, predictable boxing melodrama. Every standard gimmick to pull the heartstrings. Seen it all before.
Crying? No, not me, I’ve got something in my eye. I’m a tough guy. Not crying, not me.
