41. For whom? ICE? Congress?

Wed Jan 21, 2026, 07:44 PM

Yesterday

We already know the repugs are all in on this, except for a few of them like Kinsinger. ICE is composed of the nazi militia groups, and stupid kids needing money with no skills other than their fists and guns. What surprises me is that someone actually blew the whistle on it.

We have a constitution on paper. It's written about it books - until those books disappear in fires, and are rewritten by this administration. We have a few judges who are willing to put their lives on the line for the law, but the law is failing us overall. They have the right and permission now to harm peaceful protestors, thanks to another judge. I agree this is a break the glass moment, but who is going to break the glass and how?
