Stephen Miller on Fox threatens to arrest JB Pritzker for "seditious conspiracy" and says, "to all ICE officers: you have federal immunity in the conduct of your duties. And anybody who lays a hand on you or tries to stop or obstruct you is committing a felony."

This is a U.S. citizen being brutally abducted by ICE while his mom pleads for them to stop and the videographer cries for help. The Chicago police do nothing to stop it.
They will come for everyone, and they’re not even hiding that anymore. If you are not organizing and resisting yet, get started.

Josh Hawley (R-MO) told reporters Thursday that his Christian faith is an important part of who he pretends to be. “Whether I’m delivering a speech calling for theocracy in front of dozens of cameras or talking to my children at the kitchen table […]

When asked if the United States should have a military parade to show off its might, President Eisenhower responded:
“Absolutely not. We are the pre-eminent power on Earth. For us to try and imitate what the Soviets are doing in Red Square would make us look weak.”

Today Christians celebrate the resurrection of a brown, middle eastern immigrant crucified for preaching love for the powerless.
They celebrate by cheering the persecution of immigrants, people of color, & people who care for the powerless.
This hypocrisy is why
