It was only a failure if you assume they ever had good intentions. If you assume they intended to destroy the federal government from within, they succeeded.
We’ll be dealing with the results of this monumental breach of the federal government for many years to come.

A desperate woman in the passenger seat tries to awaken the man in the driver’s seat, with a crying child in the middle. People can be heard shouting: “He’s having a seizure.” An officer can be seen trying to pull the passengers from the vehicle, while a Fitchburg police officer orders the crowd to “back up” repeatedly.

Read this thread. All of these ICE “facilities” are concentration camps. There is a reason they are not allowing oversight. Keep protesting this shit and informing people about this Nazi regime. Nuremberg Trials 2.0 can’t come fast enough.
A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

LAPD has commanded The Douglas, the nearest bar to Dodger Stadium to turn off the televisions. They are now calling unlawful assembly, though as far as I can tell the only signs of anything are people on the sidewalk. It is the 9th inning.
