Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask:

"If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"

It's beginning to look like all of those guns Americans buy to keep government in check were only ever bought for school shootings.

We may not need the files.
But the public wants and deserves them.

If there’s nothing to hide, release all the Epstein files‼️

Call it what it is. Door to door concentration camp round ups. You know when the full record comes to light there *will* be horrifying degrees of intentional genocide of non-whites in ICE facilities due if nothing else to over crowding. It is happening.

I was watching a piece discussing poverty in the Arkansas delta when my daughter walked in. I mentioned the Elaine massacre and a few moments later they mentioned it. She was shook. I told her this current ICE thing is just another weekday for black folks.

Black farmers were massacred in Elaine, Arkansas for their efforts to fight for better pay and higher cotton prices. A white mob shot at them, and the farmers returned fire in self-defense. Estimates ...

.@PabloReports: Stephen Miller seems to be operating sort of as a shadow president at this point. Is there any legal liability he could face at the end of this presidency?

Ryan: There’s going to be legal—and I think criminal—liability for multiple members.. certainly Stephen Miller.

Sexual corruption is gendered violence that undermines public services. That is because the threat of sexual corruption can be a barrier to women and marginalised groups accessing essential public services such as education and healthcare.

I've tinkered with this question a bit too, and I think the House would be on reasonably strong grounds that both Miller and Bovino are impeachable as within the expansive scope of "all civil officers of the United States." It's not limited to principal officers or even Senate-confirmeds.
Your now weekly reminder that Stephen Miller did not go to law school and has no idea what he is talking about at all. Also of note: if this DHS is now citing Stephen Miller, well, well, well. I have been circumspect on a Miller impeachment b/c has not gone through Senate confirmation.
How is this not inciting violence?

Why must they remind ICE that they have immunity?

One of their agents just shot a killed a woman in broad daylight and they’re effectively telling them to go ahead and do whatever they want because they’re above the law.

Be safe Minneapolis.

Horrific videos showing unjustified use of force by ICE-like this one-and false statements by Stephen Miller about the scope of their immunity will hopefully convince the judge in Minnesota's lawsuit to issue an order stopping Trump and Kristi Noem from sending these goons into their state

Hear me out…what if we actually took advantage of the 2nd amendment? What if protesters were legally armed?
1. ICE cowards would back down quick-like.
2. Civil war, which would be devastating but do we really have any recourse at this point, considering the absolute lawlessness of the administration

ICE are thug scum.
This is 10th-grader Arnoldo Bazan.

A citizen.

Immigration agents grabbed him and put him in a chokehold.

"We're from the United States bro!' he screamed.

Agents took and sold his phone

And when he finally got home hours later, his shirt was ripped, he neck had angry, red welts, and he sobbed.

A protester is currently lying in a hospital bed with a piece of shrapnel in his neck 7mm from his carotid artery.

While he lay bleeding on the pavement, blinded in his left eye, gasping for air, agents did not call a medic. They dragged him and sneered: "You're going to lose your eye."

HAPPENING NOW: In federal court in MN, DOJ is struggling to articulate why a person following an ICE vehicle — so long as they are obeying traffic laws — can be stopped for "reasonable suspicion" of a crime.

So let me get this straight. The man who tore down the East Wing of the White House in order to build an oversized ballroom that no one asked for has launched an investigation into Jerome Powell over renovations to the Federal Reserve headquarters.
