Unclear of exact circumstance or who is woman is, but it reminds me of a broader issue:

The GOP basically had one cosmetic job; have their violent fun with ethnic cleansing but do it in a way with just a shred of plausible deniability so that enough Hispanic voters didn’t see what is so clearly…
Agents in Key Largo, Florida ripped this woman wearing medical scrubs out of her car as she screamed she is a US citizen. Agents cuffed her and put her in one of their cars.

She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:

I imagine everyone of dreaded Boomer era has similar story:
-My uncle fought in Battle of Bulge, vs Nazis
-My future father-in-law was in submarine, vs Nazis
-My dad was in training as Navy doctor, to fight Nazis

To the Coast Guard leadership signing off on this: You are trading your honor for political favor. By bowing to an administration that flirts with neo-Nazis, you are destroying the integrity of the service. If you can't define a swastika as hate, you aren’t fit to command. Period.

He already sent a lynch mob to chase Congress out of the Capitol and it was a skin-of-their-teeth miracle they didn't manage to get their hands on any of them.

It's a big deal, but shouldn't be framed as shockingly new. It is his longtime position that murdering his political opponents is good.

How upside down is our world? The White House occupant thinks elected public servants who say the military should not follow illegal orders are "punishable by death." We exactly need public servants to speak out against illegal orders and not be cowed by a man who despises our Constitution.

The provision was designed for GOP senators to sue over the Jack Smith investigation.
