San Bernardino police approached Billy Hill as he left work, looking for a person they were chasing over a stolen motorcycle. Police ended up taking him and hitting him with batons so hard they broke both his legs. Billy was not the man who they were looking for. pic.twitter.com/f6RX5eYzcC

For all our rightful outrage over when police officers kill people, they are even more likely to brutalize people, particularly young Black men like this brother. Trump would attempt to give immunity to cops like this and their sucker punches.

This story is bonkers. Cops in this South Carolina town run an annual 5-day operation where they stop as many cars as possible. They find any reason to pull people over. And often if the driver has cash, police steal it.

No immigrant has taken your job. You were laid off by a capitalist who required cheap labor and took advantage of that immigrant to increase his profits, and nothing makes him happier than to hear you blame the immigrant and not him.

Two assasinations in 12 hours. Killing the political head of Hamas presumably kills the ceasefire process. Killing him in Iran is provocation. Killing the Hezbollah commander in Beirut is provocation. The U.S. & Israel are plunging the region into a devastating war. At a loss for words to fully describe the horrors that are coming.
