Your reminder that they cannot arrest millions of people no matter how hard they try. They lack the infrastructure, they lack the personnel, and the economy would straight-up collapse
They are going to try to scare us by making examples out of a few people, and our job is to not fall for it

I’ll say it again: police unions aren’t real unions. They’re right-wing protection rackets for cops.
📌 NEW: The LAPD just pulled protection from former VP Kamala Harris after pressure from police unions. This was only in place because Trump yanked her Secret Service detail.
