ICE is pointing their weapons at peaceful protesters who are forming a human chain in Newark, NJ

Happening now at Delaney Hall. Protesters are outside the facility demanding the release of Martin Soto, the leader that started a hunger and labor strike to protest inhumane conditions.

iCE has rolled in a tank and is pointing their weapons on peaceful protesters that are forming a human chain.

In Newark, NJ.

So we've entered our Tiananmen Square phase? ICE is trying to provoke an incident for their Dear Leader.

Because Ballroom and Security apparatus and Drone Towers and a humiliating surrender to Iran. Martial Law coming right up. Anything for a distraction. Anything for the child-man to feel strong, omnipotent.

This is straight-up bullshit.

about the “Tiananmen Square phase”.

Not any more.

Especially as the orange one is growing increasingly desperate.

It’s just not funny or bitingly satirical anymore. I seriously fear he’s going to get people killed before this nightmare ends. Maybe a lot of people. It took two A-bombs to convince the Japanese to surrender. What will finally be enough to push the donald to give up?

Shit. I don’t even want to think about it.

As pissed off and aggressive as I feel sometimes, Gandhi was right. Peaceful non cooperation will win the day.

And don't worry about martial law. There's not nearly enough federal thugs to go around and Blue states are not cooperating. Without state headcount, they can't pull it off.
