LOFGREN: Are agents trained to break the windows of people whose cars they encounter and drag them out forcefully without asking questions?

Lying seems to be the main strategy of this administration.
"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

Interesting spin. By this logic, shouldnβt we be seeing tons of young Christian men volunteering to go to Iran? I mean, if itβs Godβs plan and all, arenβt you eager to meet him, dudebros?
I was born in an Iranian prison. My parents were held in their jails. My uncles lie in their mass graves. Nothing you can tell me about the crimes of the Iranian regime that I haven't lived in blood and bone. That doesn't mean I want my people bombed, maimed, killed, their homes in ruins. If your vision of liberation comes only through the destruction of innocent lives, then it's not freedom you're after. Sahar Delijani, Iranian author
I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own governmentβs repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds.
I support neither imperialism or dictatorship.
Sahar Delijani said it best:

From floods to wildfires, communities are feeling the impacts of climate change, but the Trump administration just took its most extreme step ever to dismantle federal climate protectionsβignoring science and unnatural disasters.
