The beginning of a reckoning for unlawful 🧊 thugs.
Great news. This is what an ICE agent looks like in a mugshot. Meet Gerardo Rodriguez, 45, of Temecula, courtesy of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office. Arrested for "illegally detaining a minor at gunpoint while off duty last week." 🧵

Swiss officials gave Trump a special Rolex desk clock and a 1 kilogram gold bar and he gave them lower tariffs. Unprecedentedly corrupt.
The founders were so concerned about bribery that the Constitution forbids it three different times. Two emoluments clauses and an impeachable offense.

We need to flip the House, Senate and especially the Oval Office.
Then we can pass a law rescinding Citizens United.
Let's add some impartial Supreme Court Justices, and laws to impeach the ones who insult their oaths of office.

I don't know why we still call them ICE and treat them as a legitimate organization. They are an armed Militia and should be designated as a terrorist group. No other legal force in America wears masks and strips people of due process. They are a terrorist organization

Do you notice that Donald Trump sues everybody, but has he ever sued any of the people accusing him of sexually molesting children? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't recall that happening. Maybe because he doesn't want to see them present their evidence in a court of law.

“When the 8 African American sheriffs took over the largest counties in North Carolina, it became a threat to the good ol’ boy system,” says the sheriff of Charlotte. These new sheriffs broke ties with ICE.
But GOP lawmakers cracked down this week, overbidding the governor’s veto to adopt this law:
