I wish I trusted them....

I wish I could believe that the two border patrol agents who shot two people in their moving car (just down the street from where I live) were telling the truth. I wish that on two days in a row, federal agents escaped with their lives after a "dangerous suspect" used their cars as a weapon threatening their lives.

BUT I CAN'T!

The credibility of stories from the Homeland Security Propaganda Machine has been reduced to ZERO. Of course, the investigation is in the hands of Kash Patel's FBI. I expect no cooperation with local law enforcement investigations.

I anticipate the Trump Administration will twist the story into a pretzel in an effort to demonize the victims and aggrandize their own role.
