Actually, he just pissed and moaned for, like, 30 min and didn't even hint at a war. Fantastic stuff.

This view provides an interesting detail. He walks around the car with the phone, documenting the plates and the bumper stickers, and then before he walks in front of it a second time (for what reason?) he switches the hand with which he is holding the phone to free up his right hand. In a video from another angle, you can see he starts reaching for his gun when she's still in reverse, or at least before she accelerates. So to me, it seems like he's performing the behavior that was mentioned in a 2013 paper on CBP use of force. In that report, they mentioned agents were standing in front of cars about to flee, and then shooting the drivers in frustration and then claiming self-defense. Here, Ross positions himself in front of a fleeing person (but just barely, so he can still step out of the way) and uses them hitting the gas as an excuse to use deadly force. The fact he says "fucking bitch" afterward and also flees the scene suggests he killed her with malice and knew it was unjustified.
Here is an article about the use of force paper from 2014 https://www.thenation.com/...
In sorry, the idea that injunctions would prevent this is laughable. In many states the state police are directly collaborating with ICE. What procedure are you even imagining? You want the deportations so long as it's done so in a professional way? The legal system is dead, only it's ghost remains and this regime doesn't believe in ghosts.
This is imperialism folks. Let's take a look at Nigeria's exports:

Ah, petroleum. How is that managed in Nigeria?

Ah I see, a state-owned oil company that is the only entity licensed to operate in the countries petroleum industry.
But sure, "Christian Genocide". That must be it. Obviously, its not. Instead of taking the soft rout through the IMF, imposing austerity and liberalization policies on the country via development loans, they're taking the hard rout of simply blowing the country up until it destabilizes.
It’s absurd how easily it works.
Yeah, it seems to have worked well on you. If you ever want to explore your own bias and unravel the propaganda you've been poisoned with, there are resources and spaces available to do that.
The data actually disproves the "people stayed home because they wanted something better" theory.
According to Blue Rose Research (which conducted 26 million voter interviews), roughly 70% of the Democratic vote share drop was due to people changing their minds and voting for Trump, not staying home. Only 30% was due to turnout.
Catalist (the Democratic party's own data firm) found something even more damning: For the first time in their dataset, new voters broke for the Republican. Harris only won 48.5% of first-time voters. These weren't leftists demanding a purity test-they were mostly young, diverse, and working-class people who decided Trump's message on the economy resonated more.
The voters who did stay home? They weren't hardcore progressives. They were "politically disengaged and ideologically heterodox", aka low-information voters who didn't feel motivated by either candidate. That's a persuasion failure!
It was a campaign that failed to differentiate itself from Biden, chased Liz Cheney Republicans instead of union workers, and watched 79% of economy-first voters go to Trump.
Harris lost because she couldn't convince people she'd change anything. That's on the campaign, not on voters for wanting "something better."
