Between Donald Trump’s attempted coup on Jan. 6, 2021, and his second election in 2024, the ruling class as a whole moved decisively behind the anti-trans witch hunt — which before had been considered a fringe movement.

Why? The anti-trans tsunami had much to do with the 2020 George Floyd Uprising, which scared the rich and powerful.

The people locked inside Delaney Hall stopped eating, and they stopped working. ICE answered with tear gas, beatings and night transfers — a fleet of vans moving in the dark so no one outside could see.

It did not work. As the strike entered its fourth week, nearly 40 women held in Unit 1 of the Newark immigration jail announced on June 11 that they were joining — issuing their own demands and reopening a fight the government had spent the previous week trying to disperse across the country.

Fulton Armstrong, a former U.S. intelligence official, emphasized that in the present and future, “we will see a mix of military pressure, sanctions, and negotiation.

The case has been met with polarizing outrage. From the moment the story broke, it was sensationalized by the media. There were calls from the far-right, demanding that an example be made out of Anthony. Since the story’s explosion, Karmelo’s family has faced constant harassment and threats.

Under Texas Penal Code § 9.32, an individual is justified in the use of deadly force if that individual reasonably believes the use of deadly force is immediately necessary to prevent another’s unlawful deadly force.

In Dallas, a supporter of Karmelo Anthony stands with signs. Karmelo Anthony, a young Black man, is headed to prison at the ripe age of 19. So, what was Karmelo
