Warrants are not required by law to arrest individuals for civil immigration violations, as Congress has authorized them to make such arrests under the Immigration and Nationality Act.

I’m not in favor of the tactics employed, but if we really want to see this go differently we need to change laws

So, what you’re really saying is that you were wrong while backing off the hyperbolic language juuuust a tad…

Got it, thanks!

You have a right to choose which sex you identify with, you just can’t force others to agree with you.

Anyone can identify as the opposite sex anytime they choose to do so, no one is capable of stopping you.

21 Indiana Republican state senators defied Trump, rejecting his pushed congressional map redraw.

13 House Republicans voted to advance repealing Trump’s EO limiting collective bargaining.

Then there’s the guy in the picture.

Calling ICE “Gestapo” is hyperbolic.

I’d say the majority of both parties want everyone in the Epstein files to face consequences and that a very slim minority from both parties will excuse, defend, and justify their pedophiles.

Regardless of what you hear on SM, republicans en masse won’t defend pedophiles. That’s silly.

I don’t approve of Trump (or any politician really). Just trying to help people understand they’re in a PSYOP.

You have a good night too.

I’ve always viewed McCain as a hero. My purpose is to wake up people to the fact that they’re being manipulated.

The “right” have been referred to Nazis/fascists since the 40’s and the left have been referred to as commies since the 60’s. Neither accusation is accurate & only serve to divide us.
December 13, 2025 at 4:24 AM
I find that lots of people like to call republicans Nazis on here; I like to point out that old hat has been used since the 1940’s against every Republican candidate for president.

We sing McCains praises today; 17 years ago he was a Nazi. I guess we let that go after the campaigns. Right?
December 13, 2025 at 4:05 AM
He became a Nazi (according to the left) when he ran for president
December 13, 2025 at 3:35 AM
The left called him a Nazi when he ran for president…
December 13, 2025 at 3:32 AM
The left called McCain a Nazi when he ran for POTUS. In fact, Republican Presidential candidates being called Nazi/fascist isn’t new

Wilkie 1940
Dewey 1944, 48
Nixon 1960, 68
Goldwater 1964
Ford 1976
Reagan 1980
Bush 1988
Dole 1996
Bush 2000
McCain 2008
Romney 2012

You’re being manipulated

He never stated that he was a Christian either… that’s an assumption. 🤷

There are no governments that are pure democracies; there will always be a majority party represented. The will of the people is embodied by those elected to represent them.
December 13, 2025 at 2:55 AM
Your statement is false on multiple levels.

US led decisive victories: Revolutionary War, Mexico 1848, Spain 1898, Japan 1945, Gulf War 1991, Iraq 2003, etc.

The US has repeatedly destroyed regimes/armies.
December 13, 2025 at 2:47 AM
Probably not a great idea to post stuff like that on public forums. 🤷🏼

Calling America a democracy is incorrect. We are a constitutional federal republic which functions as a representative democracy. Citizens elect officials to make decisions for them, rather than direct democracy.

For better or worse, the will of the American people is reflected in those elected.
December 13, 2025 at 12:20 AM
The will of We, the People is embodied in the officials that we elect to represent us. Always has been.

And hate destroys those who carry it. I see it on here all the time.

Robinson allegedly exchanged messages with his roommate, a biological male transitioning genders shortly after the shooting. In one, he confessed: “I had enough of his hatred. Some hate can’t be negotiated out.”

What Was the Motive Behind Charlie Kirk's Assassination?
Speculation has run rampant regarding the beliefs of Tyler Robinson, the man accused of killing Charlie Kirk on the campus of Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, on Sept. 10.

Who told you that?

Prosecutors haven’t ascribed a motive but have cited evidence pointing to a personal and ideological grievance against Kirk’s rhetoric, particularly his outspoken opposition to transgender rights & conservative views on social issues; not that he wasn’t conservative enough.

Why would you support political violence?

Violence begets violence and on and on we go, further into our slow descent into a hot civil war.

Why would you want that?

If you have to kill the opposition for your ideas to win the day, then maybe your ideas aren’t very good. 🤷
December 12, 2025 at 10:37 PM
Doubt it. You’re not doing anything now besides complaining.

That’s all any of you are willing to do. All it does is make you feel better while imagining how awesome you’d be at war…
December 12, 2025 at 9:33 PM
Are you suggesting a violent armed rebellion?

When read in context, this verse is speaking of Church leadership/ those in authority within the Church structure, not worldly authorities. One may assume that worldly leaders will behave in a worldly manner, yet Romans 13 commands us also, to be subject to governing authorities.
