Agent: These guys were all threatening us yesterday with hand guns.

Agent: *Hand* guns, like threatening to shoot us.
Reporter: You mean like with hand symbols?
A: Pulling them out, trying to engage us.
R: Pulling out literal guns?
A: No. Making... assuming we were going to do something.

A non-lawyer might miss that Johnson carefully dodged the question.
The question was about HOMES. He just spoke about ARRESTS.
Those are two VERY different things for warrants.
ICE is trying to undermine that distinction, which motivated the question, but Johnson bounced around it.

Q: You're a constitutional lawyer. Can you detail the 4th Amendment protections someone has if ICE approaches their home w/an administrative warrant?
MIKE JOHNSON: When ICE goes to execute a warrant, it's issued by an immigration judge, & that is a sufficient legal authority to go apprehend someone

Tear gas is banned in international warfare, yet classified as a “riot control agent” that law enforcement can use for crowd control.
“It just doesn’t work well, and it hits the weakest people the most, and causes the most complications in them,” an anesthesiology professor at Duke University said.

The funniest thing about this is the utter lack of imagination. The right can only think in tight hierarchies and military-esque structures because those are the structures that maintain their power. What a tiny world these people live in.
🚨 Documents leaked to me reveal a federal watchlist of American protesters suspected of being Antifa - including its supposed leader.

This morning, federal agents staged at the Powderhorn Park Recreation Center lot and began to throw chemical irritants at observers. They also kidnapped an observer. Our parks are meant for our children, youth, and neighbors. They should never be militarized zones meant to separate families. 1/
