A good dictator knows that even the word, sanctuary, suggests escaping the grasp of their iron fist and the persecution they inevitably practice on larger and larger numbers of people, starting with the weakest and most vulnerable.

So, the metaphor is that the storm troopers invasion will also be messaging the country about what will not and cannot be tolerated by the Trump Regime. To crush any sanctuary is a necessary means to assure and condition people that, not only is resistance futile, but it will not be tolerated. The assimilation is in progress.

The Fascist Boot of Trump, (it is the PERFECT boot mind you) is well positioned now to stomp on our collective, human face forever he is allowed to continue his agenda.

Or it used to be, way back when I used to pay attention to broadcast radio and TV. “If it bleeds, it leads” is apparently still true in some markets.

Rest assured, JP: Pox and SINclair will slant any such coverage to throw some raw meat at Hair Furor’s slathering followers.

Down ballot candidates will also be campaigning hard on this issue
