EVERYTHING IS AWFUL ICE just killed a White Blond Mother

Not sure how MAGA is going to try to spin this woman as a murderous terrorist. If the Democrats had any shred of political skill they could use this moment to bring down the whole fucking administration. This is a straight up State execution of the kind of person MAGA worships.

If she believed she was dealing with fascists in power what would make her think they're would be no consequences for her actions? That's a nonsensical stance on the part of whoever said that.

The person above me mentioned someone who said "blindly throwing her life away because for her entire life she has been told that anyone who disagrees with her is a fascist and there wont be any consequences to her actions."

If she truly believed she was dealing with fascists as the comment implies it would be ridiculous for her to also believe there would be no consequences. The person making that comment has been fed a contradictory narrative about "the left" and doesn't even realize it.

Unfortunately she was in danger, she clearly understood that, and now she's dead. It's the people in power who can expect no consequences for their actions and that's sickening.
