ICE violently detain father & son walking to school—teenage boy had to be rushed to hospital. "I was just going to school," kid cries out. "I'm underage!" The 16-year-old star athlete is a U.S. citizen—agents sent him to the hospital with severe injuries to his back & neck. Houston, Texas.

The Trump regime has decided that ICE is not Gestapo enough so it’s boosting the role of the Border Patrol thugs who enjoy zip-tying children and tear-gassing neighborhoods in Chicago.

If you're too stupid to know that Merrick Garland had no power to "rig" the 2020 election when you were in power the first time, you're too stupid to sit in the White House the second time.

There's always a lag in time between destruction of a governmental protection and the harsh reality of what happens when it's missing. The governmental trashing won't just hit libs. MAGA are going to feel it, but of course it's too late.
