He thinks the streets of Chicago are inundated with beautiful black ladies wearing MAGA hats.

He thinks LA would have been destroyed by now if he hadn't sent in the National Guard.

He thinks Portland is a war zone.

He thinks lawful, peaceful protesters are terrorists.

Did you not see how big our No Kings protest was? That wasn’t a bunch of college kids. It was EVERYONE. I live in a really nice part of town (Ravenswood/Lincoln Square) and they pulled a bunch of crap here and pissed off the entire neighborhood. Guess who lives here? Cops, firefighters and lots of rich people. ICE is not a smart bunch at all. There will be lawsuits aplenty!

I wonder what kind of training and indoctrination they go through to act so impulsively and aggressively as if nothing and no one can touch them. It's not going to last forever which is probably one of the main reasons they wear masks.

The guy and his wife had to retreat to the safety of their home because they started to cough from the smoke/gas.

These Nazi fucks are just itching to start shooting American citizens, this is exactly what Been A Dick Donald is counting on.

Yes I agree, Trump wants them to terrorize American citizens. He wants chaos and probably civil war.

someone will have to be held accountable for every arrest made.

If ICEStapo destroys or never files paperwork someone will be responsible.for those actions,
Unless we get another Attorney General that doesn't want to litigate the past and just move forward.

speaking quietly for no accountability. Too much damage has been done to the government, to foreign alliances, to our infrastructure, to our general Treasury, and to the American People this time for anyone to "let it slide."

Given that, HOW that accountability comes about could become a bone of contention. I insist we need a Truth and Reconciliation Court and, since I don't trust the American judicial side any longer, any and all who need to be put on trial should be put on trial at the Hague. We'll just carry on the Nazi's path to its bitter end, especially for trump and miller. One could say they'll never get a fair trial here in the U.S., but I believe WE'LL never be able to get a fair trial OF them in the U.S. It'll have to be given over to a neutral 3rd country to do the work for us this time.
