Rafie Ollah Shouhed, 79, suffered multiple broken ribs, elbow injuries and a traumatic brain injury during the Sept. 9 incident, according to the federal tort claim filed by his attorneys.
According to his claim, when Shouhed attempted to show agents proof of his employees’ work authorization, agents “cursed at him” and “violently body-slammed him onto the pavement.” Three agents then allegedly pinned him down, with one placing a knee on his neck, the claim stated.
“You don’t f— with ICE. We are here,” agents responded, according to the claim.
If the right thinks the left is not willing to fight for democracy USA is even more fucked.
If only the left is fighting for democracy we are well and truly fucked.
Reagan is left wing by today’s standards, so it’s only meant as left as in left of republicans today.
By left in this context, I mean left in the American binary 2 party system that are of near equal size, so by definition, in USA Republicans are the right, and Democrats are the left.
And yes since Republicans have been nearly taken over completely by MAGA, nobody should expect much help from Republicans. They are almost all accomplices.
And since the 2 sides were very close in the presidential election, the 2 sides are pretty much equal in size.
Some may have moved to the side of democracy, but it’s essential that those that want to keep democracy begin to fight for it, because there are twice as many on the side of fascism than are necessary if the rest remain passive.
That is old Hitler teaching, and Trump is VERY aware of that.
