This explanation by @velshi.com of what Trump is doing with ICE, while hollowing out the FBI, is dead on the money. We need to pay attention now, before it's too late. I had the good fortune to join him for this segment. Do not miss this. www.msnbc.com/ali-velshi/w...
'Blatantly unconstitutional’: Democracy professor on ICE tactics
ICE targeting students who have criticized the Trump administration is “blatantly unconstitutional,” warns professor of democracy Lucan Ahmad Way. “You can't simply racially profile or profile people based on their national origin and start pulling them off the streets,” says Joyce Vance. “That, by definition, is a police state.” With an explosion of new funding for ICE, as part of the GOP’s megabill, there’s yet more reason to be alarmed. With a rapid expansion of ICE, the danger, says Vance, “is that the people in charge are no longer the career officials with training who understand loyalty to the Constitution. These are quite literally people who understand loyalty to Donald Trump.”

The administration that is now using protests in Los Angeles to justify federalizing the National Guard supported Trump when he pardoned January 6 protestors who overran the Capitol.

Read the story: the guy unfairly detained may not even think he was unfairly detained. A political strategy to protect the elections that can take this cult very seriously needs to be invented. The ‘cultists’ allow everything even self-harm.
