I posted a video on the Good ICE shooting January 12, 2026.
Although I took the shooting was probably legally justified–worth an investigation BTW– because the guy had been dragged before and was subjectively very likely just defending himself this was a “terrible” situation.
To use my words I said:
I felt “Terrible for her and her family.”
“This is a terrible situation. This is a terrible istuation.”
“I just feel terrible. I just feel terrible.”
You can see it right here at the 22:34 mark.
Now at the time the Trump administration was still claiming this was domestic terrorism and Trump himself was categorically defending the officer and claiming Good had tried to run him over.
But screaming in an ICE agent’s face is NOT helping anyone. If anything it creates anger and resentment in that human being that will come out in other ways later.
Bad ways.
Anger begets anger.
Love begets love.
Let’s remember we all love each other.
And yes, MISTAKES HAVE BEEN MADE. But these guys have a VERY tough job and the more times people get in the way the more mistakes are going to happen. And NOBODY wants that.
But does that mean Americans actually miss Biden as president?
Not by a long shot.
Biden’s approval rating was dismal during his time in office. Barely anyone thought he did a good job.
But Americans by and large just don’t like Trump either.
The key difference– Biden’s government was less involved in people’s life. Or at least that’s the way it felt (whether or not that’s true is a different story.)
But the one thing NOBODY can deny– these are BOTH bad (unpopular) options.
Only about 35% of people actually WANTED to vote for Trump because he is so partisan.
But compared to Harris he was the only choice. The perceived “lesser” of two evils– although still plenty evil as Americans now agree.
And if Harris had one the polls would be just as dismal against her.
So what’s going on?
Americans are stuck with terrible choices over and over again.
Why?
Because the party system only rewards loyalty TO THE PARTY and not intelligence or common sense FOR THE PEOPLE.
We get candidates THE PARTIES want instead of candidates THE PEOPLE want.
