Deeply weird and menacing scenes in Minneapolis. ICE agents sat in masks and balaclavas in unmarked, often blacked out cars, watching local residents. They themselves being observed by a network of locals, trying to deter them from mounting raids. Profoundly abnormal.

Trump’s “own morality” standard is one that should have us quaking. Would he—and I ask this in all seriousness, alas—bomb an American city? Just a few bombs. To “send a message.”
It’s entirely plausible. trib.al/rBWWjwC

Which City Will Donald Trump Bomb First: Tehran—or
Minneapolis?
The Iran situation is getting hot. The ICE confrontations are intensifying. And we live under a rogue leader constrained only by his own “morality.” This could go anywhere.
