It’s not even two weeks into the new year and many of the inevitable results of President Donald Trump’s inhumane and militaristic policies are already playing out.
The week was marred by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent needlessly and recklessly shooting and killing 37-year-old Renee Good in Minneapolis, sparking widespread outrage. The next day, two more people were shot by immigration agents in Portland.
While Democrats and others have been fighting back forcefully, the GOP has shown no serious policy alternatives. Instead, as the economy continues to sputter, Republicans are fantasizing about Trump’s—incredibly unpopular—world domination.
And it was all caught on video.
