It was actually reported by multiple outlets (here are a few for those interested in learning about this incident). I would agree these 'things' (aka infringement of free speech) are not given the level of attention they should be.

It is terrifying that our government is sanctioning 'fill-in-the-bank agents' to invade peoples homes, without providing any proof of who they are and then they are allowed to simply disappear . . . with your phones, computers, etc. and you still don't know who they are.

“They knew that god had created even, er uh…black people, white people, red people, all people in his image.” I feel like that ‘even’ was going somewhere else. But great save with the black, white and red people 😬

Likely, by design, too small venue town hall for @gluesenkampperez.house.gov So a people’s town hall was held at the windows where she was speaking. Per those inside she was evasive & disingenuous. But what can you expect from a dem who voted for SAVE act, Laken Riley & to censure @algreen.house.gov

And most liberals that support these ideas are also NIMBY's, which pretty much just make them centrists bc nothing gets done. Hence why we have more and more "leftists," "progressives," "democratic socialists," et. al., heck and even, you know, the other end of the spectrum. Libs are not trending.

100%. And the only ones who stay and/or be elected should be those that are willing to acknowledge that the "institution" and "the system" is fundamentally broken (if it wasn't we would be here) and vow to resist status quo, challenge, reform, change, strengthen so this may never happen again.

This is so relatable. I realized all my angry feelings in life prior to the last few months have really all been on the spectrum of irritation/sadness. I don't think I'd truly felt "rage" before. I'm trying to approach it with curiosity, patience & even empathy bc boy howdy those feelings be strong!

I didn't even think about this. I mean I definitely don't think they want anyone coming back to share what happens there, so I haven't had any hope he would be brought back but I didn't think about the possibility of physical harm. I really hope that is not the case.

I am anti-death penalty but this is a much more humane way than any of the other methods. Maybe harder for the public to stomach but lethal injection has a 7.12% error rate, electrocution 1.92% . . . firing squad, 0%. Also it seems to be getting peoples attention - so, hopefully leads to abolition.
