Seth Moulton just went scorched earth on ICE:
“You are cowards… pathetic, untrained, unprofessional cowards.”
And he didn’t stop at “defund.”
He named Todd Lyons and said ICE needs to be PROSECUTED.
That’s where we are now.

The president can say something like “self defense,” “national security,” “war on terror,” “war on drugs,” something something “narco-trafficking” & instantly 1/3 of the population will assume any action is justified, even if results in the torture & death of countless civilians.

Let none deceive another,
Or despise any being in any state.
Let none through anger or ill-will
Wish harm upon another.
Even as a mother protects with her life
Her child, her only child,
So with a boundless heart
Should one cherish all living beings;
Radiating kindness over the entire world 🌍

The party of law and order literally just wrote themselves a memo that says they don't have to follow the 4th Amendment.
That's right, ICE intends to perform illegal search and seizures without a warrant.
Add that to the list with "we had to beat up the police on Jan 6 to defend our democracy".
