Probably won't convert this to a wrestling account for a few reasons.
Stay here for sardonic takes, self-deprecation, top-shelf music recs and absolutely unhinged political raving.
I do want to still follow wrestle friends and see/support your stuff, however!

Bill Melugin of Fox News may be the best-sourced journalist within ICE and CBP. If he's hearing this, the administration has a real problem.

Other folks have already noted much of this, but I think the MAGA 'theory of victory' here is:
1) DHS provocations trigger a riot or attack on agents which
2) Leads to widespread civil unrest in many 'blue' cities so that
3) Trump can invoke the insurrection act and send in the troops...

Curious if anyone has a plausible theory of victory for the administration if it were to invoke the Insurrection Act.
How does the administration "win" in such a scenario?
Best I can tell, it is magical thinking by a certain somebody at the White House, but maybe I'm missing something.

On the weakness of state terror: once ppl internalize the regime's lawless brutality, that they are no safer in their homes than in the streets (& vice versa), and that their unwavering defiance is what confounds & disempowers the regime, they also realize they have nothing to lose but their fear.

He responded once with this mild sauce horseshit which rings hollow given his craven right-wing appeasing habits & cowardly fucking silence the last 30+ hours.

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

It’s striking that we’ve treated political leaders on right as principled opposition with just a different view of how things ought to be.
When what these people really are—and have always been—is a gang of power-hungry fascists who care nothing about anything except power.

Opposing DHS funding is PLUS FUCKING SEVENTEEN
a) at all
b) without any significant portion of Democrats calling for it in the first place (imagine what it would be if Schumer and Jeffries found a single voice between them before yesterday).

Tavern Research already has poll results back. Americans support shutting down the government over ICE funding even when given arguments for both sides in the poll.

Not the main point of the clip, but Bovino reveals that he (and likely most police) believe kicking the shit out of you and blinding you with pepper spray until you stop is "deescalation."
BOVINO: He was in the scene actively impeding and assaulting law enforceme--
BASH: But he wasn't impeding. He was filming, which is a legal thing to do in the United States
BOVINO: Dana, let's not free frame adjudicate this now

When I was 9, a fraternity brother tortured a cat to death in my hometown. The details even now are beyond imagination. archive.is/xdmUL

The torturer? Now the head of the NRA.
