Homeland Security Targets Family of George Floyd Witness
While Newsweek presents this as a straightforward legal matter, the timing raises legitimate questions. Federal agencies like ICE, part of the Department of Homeland Security, have historically been weaponized against figures perceived to challenge state power or expose uncomfortable truths. Remember the FBI's COINTELPRO targeting of civil rights leaders? There's a well-documented pattern of using
bureaucratic levers to silence dissent or punish those connected to it. The state's memory is long, especially for those who shine a light on its brutality. One might wonder at the sudden urgency to address decade-old, non-violent warrants after Darnella Frazier's testimony helped convict a police officer. It appears some acts of accountability ripple further than others, sometimes leading back to
the families who dared to speak truth to power. Is this simply coincidence, or a chilling reminder of who the system truly protects?
