Calling out ICE by Olympian is treason?
I'm sure if these Trump Monkeys had their way, any Olympian who fails to praise Dear Leader and call him "Daddy" would be heading for a forced-labor camp.

I’ve watched a lot of congressional hearings over the last 40 years. This performance by Bondi is the single most unprofessional, non-responsive, reprehensible and obnoxious I have ever seen from any witness who has testified before any committee of either chamber.

Typical tRump-cult response to frame a reasonable request as a mentally ill symptom.
RASKIN: President Trump may have been a little bit embarrassed by the release of his tax return. If Trump can get $10 billion, how much do you think the claims of these Epstein survivors are worth?

ICE agent barges into a consulate in Minneapolis (against U.S. treaty obligations) and when confronted says “If you touch me, I’ll grab you.”
This is a big part of what Congress must rein in: the agency’s sense of entitlement and unlimited power, coupled with its pursuit of physical escalation.
