FWIW, this is why I'm not afraid of Trump attempting to declare nationwide martial law. To enforce it, he would need every single person involved with any aspect of local, county, or state law enforcement - plus a million+ military and militia. They don't have the numbers or the public buy-in.
So to return to this: Mussolini had 200,000 blackshirts for the March on Rome in a country of ~35m. Hitler had 400,000 brownshirts in 1932 in Germany for a population of ~60m.
So around 0.6% of the population.
0.6% of 340m Americans is just over 2 million.
They do not have enough goons.

In 1932, on the eve of seizing power, the Nazi goon army - the Sturmabteiling or SA - numbered 400,000 members. By 1933, it was over two *million.*
DHS has 240,00 employees and lot of those are non-goons who have, you know, real jobs.

Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino says that the whistles and honking actually help the feds make apprehensions. I witnessed the complete opposite in New Orleans.

As CBP agents menaced Chicago area residents, caravans of protesters followed, honking their horns and blowing whistles...Protesters decked their vehicles out in anti-ICE flags, or scrawled things like “Bovino, you a BITCH” on the back windows of their pickup trucks.

Don't be surprised if Republicans in competitive 2026 races start to distance themselves from him. His personality cult offers them no advantage, and considerable risk. He's a lame duck, dead weight, and his time in public will end sooner than you think.

Cops led us into the street as the new “protest zone” and then beat us repeatedly.
Got hit in the face with a baton. Leaving to pick up my friends who were arrested.
Stay safe out there.

90% of the ATF agents I see stuck with DHS guys look near suicidal.
DHS has never gotten much respect in law enforcement and intelligence communities (in the latter it was basically second to last in the pecking order). Now it’s suddenly flush with cash and high priority and I think it’s very much botching the opportunity at every turn.
ICE writing long screeds whining about someone from Cato calling out their bullshit shows how they know they're losing the narrative here. No one likes ICE. No one trusts ICE. And they're flipping out about how weak they look.

ICE just chased everyone off the public road by the Broadview facility. They yelled for people to move and immediately began firing gas into the crowd, which included legal observers, press, and medics.

@noturtlesoup17.bsky.social is in it up to her elbows reporting.
Immediately before this arrest at the Broadview ICE facility, I recorded agents talking about a guy who had told them “go kill yourselves.” They pointed towards this guy who was standing on the sidewalk and not interfering, and rushed over to arrest him.

A man was just chased and arrested outside of the Broadview ICE facility in Chicago. When legal observers from the National Lawyers Guild asked why, an agent threatened to arrest them too.

I'm coming around to the idea that it's been so hard to pin a motive on Robinson shooting Kirk because even Robinson doesn't know why he did it. He just didn't like Kirk for some reason he can't articulate.
This is the most detailed look inside Tyler Robinson's Discord community I've seen and yet again, it gives us absolutely no clear motivation, political in or otherwise.

I’d love to see more candidates and elected officials protest this facility and help get it shut down.

Judging from the alleged messages on the bullet casings, this is the right take. Many terminally online folks aren't neatly aligned outside of simple hateful rhetoric
Don't be surprised if whoever killed Charlie Kirk has no coherent political ideology, didn't do it for any particular reason, and doesn’t fall anywhere neat on the left/right paradigm.
