I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)
thefulcrum.us/.../project-.... We ask how people with so much can be so vicious, as they slash programs and fire federal employees without cause. Greed, sure, but they also picture themselves as lords with total power over what they hope will be our impoverished little lives.
