- Reposted by Cathrine SchmidTrans people were the proving grounds to normalize the made up term "biological sex"to roll back decades of progress on gender equality. When you get bioessentialist language, suddenly everything from gender roles to marriage becomes an argument about "biology." www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
- Reposted by Cathrine SchmidI distinctly remember one of the main arguments against women in military combat arms jobs was “the men will rape the women” and I was aghast that people who claim to idolize tHe TrOoPz would assume that about, say, infantrymen. You’re telling me the guy in my foxhole is assumed to be a rapist?!

- Now the morning reveals what in nighttime was hid While the banner remained, midst the cannon and fire: That the land it flies over would never be rid Of the rockets and bombs and the fear of the pyre.

- Reposted by Cathrine SchmidThe Secretary of Homeland Security is asserting that the Deputy White House Chief of Staff ultimately bears responsibility for the murder of two American citizens, which is something that would normally generate a dozen congressional inquiries.
- Reposted by Cathrine SchmidICE is not broken. It's agents murdering people, taking trophies of victims, using illegal tactics, breaking laws, spreading terror, and leaving death cards are not isolated events, outliers, or accidents. ICE is operating exactly as intended.
- Reposted by Cathrine SchmidThis isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years. These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.
- I spent like 3 hours today shoveling snow, helping my neighbors clear their walkways and get their cars free, and I feel like I did more actual good today than I did in most any single day in my entire career.
- I took my oath seriously. I took my values seriously. I just wish I wasn't so deluded into thinking others took them seriously too.
- I am deeply afraid that if our representatives can't work out a diplomatic solution very quickly, we are within a month of a squad of ICE just mag-dumping into a crowd.

- Purposefully watching people die on camera doesn't give you some moral clarity you somehow lacked before. It just gives you trauma. You already know it's wrong. You do not need to watch it.
- Its the same thing as when folks would go on sipr and watch fucking IED footage. There's people whose job it is to do that, and we can trust their analysis. They are doing a noble thing by being there to document it. But every death you witness diminishes you. I don't want that for anyone.

- Reposted by Cathrine SchmidYup. But how was their run time? Seriously though, I remain on my bullshit that if the military doesn’t want to do strategy or war termination then we need to take 30-50% of their budget and give it to DoS and USAID and give them lead at a lot of levels (with proper education and development).
- Reposted by Cathrine SchmidI think you get a “we lost a war” behind the desire to change PME. I share that sentiment. Name a battle we lost. Name an engagement we lost. Name an insurgent we located who didn’t die. Our capacity for violence was never the decisive factor in the GWOT. “Make PME just war” is risible bullshit.
- Reposted by Cathrine SchmidThere is video circulating on social media of a group of ICE agents beating a man near 26th and Nicollet in south Minneapolis, then one of the ICE agents shoots the man while he's on the ground numerous times. A witness can be heard yelling that the victim is dead.

- Reposted by Cathrine SchmidOne of the most important things to keep in mind if you want to understand the American right today, especially the people leading the federal government and its allied media outlets, is they believe their own BS. They really are in a bubble, and genuinely surprised when reality does not comport.

- Reposted by Cathrine SchmidThe thing about the Boston Massacre— the fruits of arbitrary power— was not that the colonists were universally in the right. Things were thrown at the soldiers. But, the presence of a standing army escalated conditions. The use of force that night was not proportional. Citizens died needlessly.
