Yes, they will "just" bring in someone else. Yup.
And they will spend time doing it. And they will spend resources. And confusion will be layered atop chaos & authority will be undermined & wicked people will fight amongst themselves. And they will be weaker.
And we'll keep pushing. And we'll win.

I hosted New Year’s and put on a Heated Rivalry playlist. My bestie and I decided we would take a shot of Russian vodka every time “All the Things She Said” came on (either version). We had to change playlists before we got alcohol poisoning. Anyway, Russian Standard vodka is really fucking good.

Already watched Heated Rivalry Episode 5 twice. You have killed me Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov and Scott Hunter and Kip Grady. I am dead. (Also pissed because I was COMPLETELY fine with being single and now this show has made me rethink everything. 😂😭💔🥰🤮)

GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing
BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?
GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now
THOMPSON: What does that mean?

Since Bovino left it seems every day or every other day I hear of someone abducted by ICE agents. It’s slower, less flashy, but still happening.
“Rey Wences, senior director of deportation defense at the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights, noted that “abductions” continue happening “every day in both the city and the suburbs.”

Federal agents used chemical weapons on Chicagoans at least 49 times — even after a judge said to stop.
Contrary to federal claims about attacks on agents, most of these incidents appear to involve nonviolent protesters or bystanders. blockclubchi.co/47PoaXb

So, take away people’s jobs, benefits, SNAP, and jack up their insurance premiums so much they can’t afford health care. Then just when people are getting really desperate, offer them $300/person to become bounty hunters and sell out their neighbors. Do I have this right? I hate it here.
NEW: a contractor is paying random people $300 to physically track immigrants for ICE. They're given addresses, vehicles, told to monitor the target. That information then goes back up to ICE. These are not licensed private investigators; members of the public
