any democrat who does not support abolishing ice at this point is out of the mainstream, a radical extremist, a drag on the electoral prospects of the democratic party

It would be a mistake to see Trumpism as authoritarianism imposed on an unwilling nation, as opposed to authoritarianism implemented in a nation with a plurality that is already made up of authoritarian bootlickers who created the context for Trumpism to thrive.

Watching them all fall in line to brazenly lie to protect their new secret police/terror squads from accountability for shooting a scared mom in the face 3 times, is a reminder (in case we still needed one) that it’s no where near enough to just replace Trump. It’s the entire immoral & corrupt GOP.

We must stress: The only violence is coming from CBP/ICE. They are rioting in the face of sustained nonviolent protests by thousands of Americans across the country. They are today’s Alabama State Troopers at the Selma bridge. They are Bull Connor’s police with firehoses in Birmingham.

The Trump era in a nutshell: Ordinary citizens are holding ICE accountable, while large law firms are doing nothing. Small businesses are speaking out, while large corporations remain silent. Independent media show moral urgency, while legacy media reports "both sides."

4 male ICE agents tackle a woman U.S. citizen—lift her off ground with no concern over groping her breast or exposing her midriff. "Help me! Help me!" she cries out. "Check my ID!" Agents shove her into back of SUV hitting her head—literally run away from scene of crime. St. Paul, Minnesota.

I too am normally opposed to the death penalty, but with great power comes great responsibility... and great accountability commensurate with the power they wielded. If one accepts the legal power of life or death over others, then one is eligible to face the same outcomes.

I know pedocon’s real and all, but it’s insane the Jan 6 pardon covered ~ 1500 people and there are now at least a half dozen since arrested for child sex crimes. That’s one in every 250! Over the course of a year! I think Pitcairn Island is the only population beating that per capita rate.

Carnival Cruise Lines. ICE deleted observer footage.
A representative for Carnival told PEOPLE in a statement: "We are aware that U.S.
Customs and Border Protection took a guest into custody as a person of interest.
As this is a law-enforcement matter, we defer all further questions to the appropriate authorities."

Verhas told 12 News that she had recorded the whole incident, but that a female ICE agent "snatched" her phone away. She said that her phone was returned, but only after the video she attempted to record of her husband being taken away by agents was deleted.
