Excellent season finale #Andor - Nemik's manifesto

"Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they've already enlisted in the cause. Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward. 1/2

Last month, Dhillon demoted senior attorneys who handled #police #abuse investigations to other low-level assignments, such as handling public records requests or adjudicating internal discrimination complaints.
Those moves are part of a broader effort by the #Trump admin to upend the #CivilRights Division's traditions of pursuing cases to protect the civil rights of some of the country's most vulnerable & historically disenfranchised populations.

But during #Biden’s / #MerrickGarland’s 4 yrs the #DOJ failed to enter into any court-binding consent decrees, an issue that legal experts warned could put the dept's #police #accountability work at risk of being undone.

Under Dhillon's *leadership*, the #CivilRights Division has lost >100 of its attorneys through firings, deferred resignation agreements, demotions & resignations.

#Congress authorized the #DOJ to conduct civil investigations into constitutional #abuses by #police, such as excessive use of force or racially-motivated policing, in 1994, as a response to the horrific beating of #RodneyKing, a #Black man, by #white #LAPD officers.

During #Biden's presidency, the #CivilRights Division launched 12 such "pattern or practice" investigations into police depts including #Phoenix, #NYC, #Trenton, #Memphis & #Lexington.

#Louisville & #Minneapolis were the 2 most high-profile cities to be investigated during former Democratic President Joe #Biden's admin for systemic #police #abuse, & were the only 2 cities that agreed in principle to enter into a court-approved settlement with the #DOJ known as a consent decree.

Minneapolis also separately entered a similar type of settlement with the state of #Minnesota to reform its police practices.

The move comes 4 days before the May 25 5yr anniversary of the death of #GeorgeFloyd, a #Black man who was murdered by Derek Chauvin, a #white #police officer who knelt on his neck as Floyd repeatedly pleaded that he couldn't breathe.
Floyd's killing, & the killing of #BreonnaTaylor who was shot to death by #Louisville Police executing a no-knock warrant, sparked worldwide protests about racially-motivated policing practices during the final year of #Trump's 1st term.

Harmeet Dhillon, the asst AG for the #DOJ's *#CivilRights* Division, said her office will seek to dismiss the pending litigation against the 2 cities & retract the dept's prior findings of constitutional violations.
"Overbroad #police consent decrees divest local control of policing from communities *where it belongs*, turning that power over to unelected & unaccountable bureaucrats, often with an anti-police agenda," Dhillon said in a [BS] stmnt.

Came across this on imgur. Fact. Period. 100%. No Notes. #humanrights #BLM #civilrights #FuckRacism #uspol #EndFascismNow

When you enslave black people but they gain liberty so you go to war but you lose so you segregate black people but they don't disappear so you lynch black people but they form self defense squads so you declare those terrorist organizations but their calls for equality gain popularity so you shoot their leader but they don't disappear so you settle them in houses full of toxic lead but they don't all die so you train cops to kill them instead but they protest it so you ask why they keep complaining
