ICE fires first shot.

What the hell happened to this country?

It can't all just be Trump.

Trump is an example of the problem. The problem is racism and absolutely shit-tier mental health.

America the horrific.

• MIGRANTS FORCED TO 'EAT LIKE DOGS'
• 'CAGED LIKE CHICKENS'
• CAMERA OVER TOILET
• FEMA CAMPS RAISE ALARM

The problem is that we didn't punish the confederacy in the same manner that post war Germany punished the Nazis.

MAGA has roots in the South, but I firmly believe it to be a whole new ideological beast. Born of modern fascist appeal. A Nazi Germany 2.0.

I tend to agree, but we wouldn't be here if the confederate (and follow ons) movement had been criminalized in similar ways to what Germany did.

We never finished Reconstruction, so Jim Crow was allowed to grow and fester, and we never finished off the Civil Rights Movement to bury Jim Crow forever and make up for incomplete Reconstruction, and we have the garbage today of neo-segregation.

Remember when Obama was going to round up gun owners and out them in FEMA camps? Turns out that was just projection yet again.

The NAZIs modeled their concept of Lebensraum on the US Manifest Destiny, and loved Jim Crow.

It's always been here.

Also worth remembering we do have foreign adversaries that have diligently and effectively been working to destabilize our country through social media, it will be hard to quantify how much this is radicalizing people. Stack that on with algorithms feeding people into a pipeline of hate, and the already extant group of fascists that have festered in this country for decades...

The protests are correct.
ICE aren't the right kind of Americans to be allowed entry.

Today's ICE roll on Drudge. Including military deployment on our streets, the attack on free speech, and brutal inhumanity of the fascist takeover.

• VIDEO: Troops question Trump's military deployment in California...
• ICE silences media reporting of its actions...
• Masked agents snatch parent in front of child...

ICE tells A US citizen you have no rights because he is a person of color

Immigration agents told a teenage US citizen: ‘You’ve got no rights.’ He secretly recorded his brutal arrest

Video from Kenny Laynez-Ambrosio, 18, puts fresh scrutiny on the harsh tactics used to reach the Trump administration’s ambitious enforcement targets

Heard on NPR today that newsom is pushing a bill that will say it is illegal for all law enforcement cannot cover their face

If it’s illegal for protesters to wear masks why do the police get to?

Such a law is good and valid for peace time.
I hesitate to think that still applies.

Don't want MAGA Nazis to know who our forces are either. Food for thought.

I feel like we can apply the logic when the people on the right when a police officer shoots a suspect in the back when they are running away from them. If they did nothing wrong why did they run


If they (ice agents) did nothing wrong why do they hide their face?

Note the only time I feel a police officer should have their face covered is when they are an undercover agent and don’t want their identity exposed. But also they should not be that situation probably..

For some strange reason ICE didn’t need masks during the Obama administration and he was the deporter in chief.

The methodology is incorrect. You have to attack them where they live.

Nothing will change, until citizens start picking up the children of these ICE monsters, and start "deporting" them.Just swing by their daycare, or school and drop them off on a container ship going... Anywhere.

MAGAts don't feel anything, until it affects them on a personal level.

It appears the Battle for Los Angeles is over—and Team Trump has been forced to scurry away with their little tail (wink wink South Park) between their legs.

Basically, this was all just an expensive PR stunt illegal deploying troops on US soil with almost nothing to show for it. What did they achieve?
- At least $134 million in costs (see last bullet)
- Lowered morale for bored National Guard troops with nothing to do but sleep on hard floors
- Lowered morale and support for LAPD and county forces providing support for raids
- Losing more than 10 points in national support for your immigration agenda over the 60 day deployment
- Scores of pissed off Angelenos and Californians
- Potentially dozens of civil lawsuits incoming…

On that last point, it seems that out of 26 protesters charged with assaulting ICE officers or impeding enforcement actions, nearly half have been dismissed thus far by prosecutors who’ve dealt with misfiled paperwork and false claims made by the government that were easily debunked with video. In the most high profile case, they couldn’t even get the defendant’s name right on the indictment.

These are not serious people, but they are seriously jeopardizing our freedoms.

Dropped cases against LA protesters reveal false claims from federal agents

Revealed: records show border patrol gave inaccurate testimony about people it jailed. Prosecutors now face ‘embarrassing’ dismissals

Glad to see that we have all these prudent stewards of the US Treasury and other government functions in charge, making the soundest of financial and management decisions on behalf of the citizens of the United States. /s

Battle for Los Angeles

The one with Aaron Eckart and NeYo? Never liked that movie.
