Read this story and decide if this is the America you want to live in.

ICE saw a Latino man driving a car. Chased him down and rammed him. Just because he wasn’t white.

He was just a guy - an American citizen - driving to the auto shop.

It sounds like these goondas are being told that 18 U.S.C. 111 means they can arrest anyone who protests or “opposes” them. They seem to have missed the “forcibly” part. Also, not for nothing, but this crime is a misdemeanor www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/...

Apparently, it is now acceptable to attain a new status in life, simply by proclamation.

If there’s one thing the last ten years has taught me, it’s that most Americans have zero understanding or respect for the lessons of history.

If there's one empirical insight I'd want everyone to understand about American politics, it's this:

I’d take them over Steven Miller. I know he’s a murdering bastard. Tattoos on faces are nothing compared to his Goebbels-like appearance.
I’d certainly take them over a mortuary molester like Stephen Miller.

Why does ICE have riot control gear?

What possible reason could they have for it other than to use against Americans?

I know the answer. I just think MAGA should be made to confront it.
