Donald Trump wants to make domestic terrorists out of everyone who is standing up for democracy in this moment. But really, that’s a badge of honor.

Unsurprisingly murder victim Alex Pretti is being smeared by those trying to justify his murder.  This is an article about the need for restraint against the heavily armed aggressors...  The aggressors are allowed far more latitude for violence than citizens are - as can be seen from the outrageous reactions to Pretti's rather benign actions 2 weeks ago and use of that "gotcha" to smear his good name.  

I think it is important to talk about ICE and its use of masks to shield agents from prosecution for their crimes that began in March 2025 - presumably because of plans to suspend restraint and lawfulness by agents selected for their violent impulses.
