The cowards in the Republican Party will be forever stained by their condoning of what the country has turned into to. The place is cooked, but if there isn’t an overwhelming repudiation of the Republican Party in the mid-terms later this year then just forever close the joint down.

Despite the Trump initiated State gerrymandering of congressional seats, the Dems should control the House comfortably after the mid-terms, the Senate will be much more problematic where it’s current 53-47, with 35 seats up for grabs, 23 of which are currently held by the Republicans.

New video has emerged/released regarding the shooting in the USA, it is body cam footage.

It will exonerate the officer.

Despite what the gestapo and SS claim, it’s a cold blooded murder, every day of the week.

No way it will. She is literally turning away from him. Nothing she did warrants cold blooded murder

Tim Miller from the Bulwark breaks it down.

The Bulwark is centre/right, Tim Miller is a (former) Republican who worked for John McCain and Jeb Bush. Guess why he doesn’t identify as a Republican anymore?

ICE agents usually require 6 months of training, but they’re now churning them out with only 6 weeks.

If this footage exonerates the shooter, then I’m Brad Pitt.

It is not body cam footage. It is his own mobile phone footage. Had the presence of mind to keep filming for his later enjoyment I suppose. Guilty as sin.

A CNN recreation using multiple camera angles and a 3d rendering. Pretty revealing. Not sure if anyone can access, I had to make an account.

It's incredibly foolish of Trump, Vance, Noem etc. to be making comments that are so vehement in the defence of the ICE officer before all the facts are in. Clearly they are not interested in the justice system operating as it should.

I remember when conservatives would have been very troubled by an incident such as this and exercised caution in their public comments in the aftermath, so as not to prejudice or otherwise impact any potential legal proceedings. (I suspect that it has not crossed the minds of Trump et al that they may ultimately be doing the officer a disservice.)
