From the description: We need to abolish ICE. What does it cost our humanity to look the other way when women, children, and young men of promise are ripped off the street and disappeared? What does it cost us as a society to normalize looking the other way to such barbarism?

What is it costing us — as Human Beings and as a Society — to look the other way, when Women, and Children, and innocent People, and young Men of promise, are ripped off the street, and thrown into a van, and disappeared, and you never see them again?

There's what that costs them. But think about what it costs you, to look the other way.

What does it cost us, as a Society that starts to normalize looking the other way?

Then we start looking the other way, as Women bleed-out in parking lots in States that have banned abortion.

We start looking the other way, as VRA Districts start to get stripped out of our Congress.

We start looking the other way, as the Free Press becomes consumed and intimidated by the very Powers that they exist to check.

What does it cost us — and you, as a Human Being — to look the other way?

And so, there's the economic cost. Your healthcare is going up. Long-term care for our Parents and Grandparents are gonna skyrocket. It's gonna cost us. It's already costing us.

And then there’s, what does it cost our Soul? And that, you know, in a political context, People think that that's naive flowery talk. I don't think it is. Because what is all of this for, if it is not to live a dignified Life, in a Community and Country of integrity?

I cannot help but think of the words of our 40th president, Ronald Reagan. He famously said, “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help."

It's a good quote, but I disagree. I think nine more terrifying words are actually: “I worked all day and can't feed my Family.”

We are going to use the power of government to lower prices, and make it easier for New Yorkers to put Food on the table.

When government understands its purpose — as serving the very Working People that it has left behind, time and again — it can make a difference in the most pressing struggles facing our City today.

It's not just that government can help. It’s that government must help. And our government will help.

On-screen text in Spanish: New drone attack in Guerrero, now in Atlixtac, La Montaña region.

Background voice in Spanish: Ask for help.

Main speaker in Me'phaa: No translation available.

Main speaker in Spanish: ...it has been days now... attacking the town...

Main speaker in Spanish: ...they are bombing... with drones...

Main speaker in Spanish: ...and the ones to blame for this are Ernesto Pacheco Bello, and Jacobo Pacheco Bello, and Carlos Pacheco Bello, and César Pacheco. They are the ones guilty for this.

———-

In the La Montaña region of Guerrero, Mexico, specifically in the municipality of Atlixtac and the community of San Pedro Huitzapula, Indigenous communities are facing a severe humanitarian crisis. A local criminal syndicate known as Los Ardillos has laid siege to the area, utilizing a combination of heavy gunfire, arson, and commercially available drones rigged to drop homemade explosives directly onto civilian homes. Residents fleeing the violence have specifically named individuals from the Pacheco Bello family as the orchestrators of these attacks.

The violence is part of a broader, systemic campaign by criminal syndicates to violently seize territorial control. The use of weaponized drones is not an isolated incident but a rapidly growing standard tactic among Mexican criminal groups. While frequently used to overwhelm local community self-defense forces and terrorize civilians into abandoning strategic mountainous and rural areas, cartel drone warfare has also expanded into border states and urban environments, where aerial explosives have targeted municipal police vehicles and government installations like state prosecutor offices.

Because residents have no means to defend themselves against aerial bombardments, this recent wave of attacks has forced between 800 and 1,000 families to abandon their homes, livestock, and livelihoods. Many endured a siege lasting roughly 17 days, hiding in local commissaries or the surrounding mountains before finally fleeing in the dark. Forced displacement due to cartel violence across Mexico has more than doubled in recent years, frequently emptying entire towns.

Despite the presence of military and National Guard units in the region, displaced families and organizations like the Tlachinollan Human Rights Center report a complete lack of state protection. Locals have testified that drone explosives were dropped while military and National Guard patrols were physically present in the area. When residents pleaded for intervention, the forces allegedly stated they did not have enough personnel to engage the cartels, essentially standing by as the bombardments continued. Authorities only promised permanent surveillance after the community had already been forced to abandon their land, leaving these vulnerable populations with no choice but to run for their survival.

Mehmet Oz, you don't get to tell us how many Children we should be having. Only Women get to determine how many Children they should be having.

For me, that number was zero. For some People, it's four or five. For most People, it's one or two. Because that's the amount of Children that is feasible to raise in this economy, and even that number of Children is no longer feasible to manage.

They don't want us to raise Children in a Society where Mothers are valued, where Children are protected, where Healthcare is provided, where Food is secure, where Housing is secure.

They want to raise a Generation of future Slaves. They want economically insecure People to have Children because then they'll be desperate, and they'll be easier to control. That's it. That's the end game.
