You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

US citizen. Public servant. Licensed to carry a firearm but had no weapon in hand when killed. Attacked by ICE agents with chemical munitions for no reason, then shot.

So, if your social security is denied for your political beliefs? Can’t sue. Government messed up your payments? You might not be able to post the bond to fight their screwup. Illegally arrested - good luck.

Section 70302 of the Big Beautiful Bullsh*t bill inserts a system where, to sue the federal government for any due process, you would now have to post a bond that could run into the millions or even billions of dollars before your filing can be accepted by the court.
There would be no recourse.

There is no accountability. People are being abducted by masked people who don’t answer questions, don’t identify themselves, and threaten citizen bystanders with arrest for asking questions.
If you can’t see that this is just like the gestapo, then you need to read history.
