That would be colonel Green. I know one "fan" who claims that 'bright future of Trek is only possible because of great people like Green who genocided all degenerates, which is why there are no gays in Trek'. His words, not mine. (Pointless to say he considers #Discovery noncanon).

ICE agents in Chicago violently detain a non verbal autistic man for being “non compliant”
He couldn’t “comply” because of his disability…they don’t care
This is not the first time they’ve gone after a disabled person
They target the most vulnerable because it’s an easy way to meet their quota

Can we all sit down and remember that the last time they made a Star Trek show geared towards the middle of the country they gave us Enterprise and it tanked the whole franchise for 10years?

This was horrific to watch. Agents entering a daycare, wrestling with and abducting a teacher in front of small screaming children. I just… what the fuck are we doing here.
this morning, ICE went into a Spanish language immersion daycare and took a teacher from the building in front of screaming and crying kids and parents at dropoff and the daycare had to shut down for the day (near Lane Tech, where they were yesterday). Really hoping today's "theme" is not "daycare."

The absolute f*cking audacity of expecting anyone in Europe to feed Americans for FREE after all the bitching, whining and outright lying he's done with regards to Europe paying "their fair share".
It's not that Europeans wouldn't do it either, it's just the unmitigated gall of expecting it.

This is as embarassing as it can possibly get. US soldiers instructed by their government to beg from scraps from foreign food banks intented for homeless and extremely poor.
Luckily somebody realized in time that it's not exactly a good look and took it off the website.

NEW: The US Army website for its bases in Bavaria, Germany told its soldiers and employees that it might need to obtain free food from the German government during the US government shutdown.
The Army later altered publication to remove a list of food banks, but we have the original text here:

This is mafia behaviour, pure and simple. Let's just exclude US from any sort of international decisionmaking from now on.
And if there is a diplomat on any side that is so easily intimidated to the point they can't serve the interest of a country they represent? They should be immediately fired.

In Chicago, a woman was driving to get coffee when a DHS vehicle fleeing an angry crowd crashed into her car. Armed agents jumped out of the vehicle, yanked her door open, pulled her by the legs out of her car at gunpoint, held her incommunicado for hours, then released her with no charges.
