A 21-year old anti-ICE protester has been left permanently blinded in California after a Department of Homeland Security agent shot him in the face with a nonlethal round at point-blank range on Friday.
Kaden Rummler can be seen on video rushing to help a fellow protester at Civic Center Plaza in Santa Ana before being shot by a federal agent. He crumples to the ground in a heap, covering his face before an officer drags him away by his hoodie. Rummler’s aunt said he was left with a fractured skull and shards of plastic, glass, and metal stuck all throughout his eyes and face, and would have died if not for the six hours of surgery he went through.
“That could have cost him his life,” Jeri Rees told the Los Angeles Times. “But now, for the next six weeks, he can’t sneeze or cough because it could do a lot of damage.… The other officers were mocking him, saying, ‘You’re going to lose your eye.’”
How many americans need to be killed or wounded before congress shuts down this terror organization?
Its absolutely insane that the US president is more compassionate toward iranian protestors than US ones. But I guess the US oil is already secured by US oil companies so who cares about americans when only corporations are people?
They’ll do as Israel commands because they are all owned by Israel and the Zionist oligarchs. Democrats and republicans are pro genocide and now it’s our turn. https://www.trackaipac.com/
If Trump goes full blown dictator, never.
If he dies and a regular election takes place, I guess the end of his term.
But truly, I see the US as sitting on the brink of a rerun of the American Civil war. Instead of England, it’s your own people. Rise up or be crushed.
Do you see the US Democrats do something as bold as end DHS?
Also, if Trump dies, Vance takes control, which to some degree means Thiel takes control (hello Palantir!) which is arguably a lot worse.
The civil war was states vs states and the conflict point was slavery, with Kansas entering the union as a free state. MAGA is driven by a global media aparatus funded by extreme wealth. I think as soon as the power goes out the whole thing falls apart.
I wouldn’t expect a civil war to occur until a federal wealth tax hits or a straight up coup occurs. I think democrats could kick the whole thing down the road a decade by adding puerto rico and DC as US states which can be done with just 51 votes in the senate.
I don’t think the police will disappear anytime soon from any police state.
It’s a leverage they are using to attack iran, they don’t give a shit about people.
I think that question basically doesn’t have an answer, since Trump’s supporters don’t live in the same reality. Within their bubble, that agent is a hero and Good was a terrorist or whatever. They don’t know that previous administrations have managed to enforce immigration law without essentially declaring martial law, and they don’t know that ICE agents are being hired with literally no getting. If they found out, they are well-trained to not care .
If you want to know when this will even begin to stop, well, the stock market is doing just fine. While that is the case, Trump can do whatever he wants.
