🚨Federal prosecutors have charged the Austin man shot in the back by ICE with a single count of resisting and assaulting a federal officer, according to court documents. Instead of holding ICE accountable for attempted murder, and getting him medical care, DHS lies. www.kut.org/crime-justic...

Honestly, these people. Say "whoopsie" over Gaza but carry on arming Israel and arresting people for peaceful protest. Blame the Iran war on Iran while facilitating the bombing of schools and hospitals from British soil and acting surprised when there may be consequences to that.
