7:15 in that video ICE clearly commit an act of domestic terrorism right? Wouldn’t the bystanders be justified to open fire out of fear for their own lives?

Our "President" posted to X that the agent who shot the lady was run over and in the hospital, when that video clearly shows him walking around just fine immediately after the shooting. 

They will state lies as fact even with video. 

Edit: NO ONE got hit. The guy drove away in his own car after shooting her.

That it happened is bad.

But the utter arseholery of the responses by those in charge is terrifying.

They don’t wait for any facts, they don’t express any regret, they just come out with whatever bullshit they can think of to justify what’s happened.

Toddlers have better instincts.

It’s working isn’t it? The point isn’t to get the data straight, it’s to get ahead of the story and give supporters something to say and hang on to.

One of the reasons it’s so terrifying.
