To understand how crazy, and dangerous, this move is, just realize that Trump is now declaring that FAA airplane safety certifications will henceforth be made by politicians who know absolutely nothing about aircraft safety.

Terrorism is the calculated use of violence or threat of violence to induce fear, intending to coerce governments or societies to achieve political, religious, or ideological goals. It often targets civilians and critical infrastructure to disrupt safety and advance specific agendas.

I know we’re so far past even considering the possibility that Republicans ever actually believed in the Constitution, but it’s a useful thought experiment to read this article as if it was about Biden using technology developed by a billionaire donor to surveil anti-abortion and 2A activists.
A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

Trump says on Minnesota that "we have to get rid of the criminals, so from that standpoint nothing is going to change" & adds, "we have to find out all of the fraud that's taken place in MN, We have to get to it. They've stolen at least $19b & we're gonna find out who did it and where the money is."

I'm being 100% serious when I say that this is what Republicans mean when they refer to Democrats as Socialists, Marxists, and Communists. Many Republicans genuinely believe that American Democrats want to turn the US into something resembling Maduro's Venezuela or Castro's Cuba.

If you lawfully have a gun near a protest the government can kill you.
But, if you kill protesters with a gun they'll make you a celebrity.

SCHUMER says Democrats are “united” behind three DHS reforms
1/ End roving patrols; tighten the rules on warrants and require ICE to coordinate with local authorities.
2/ Enforce accountability; a uniform code of conduct.
3/ Require masks off, body cameras on, agents carry ID.

ICE activity has not noticeably tapered off yet here and in fact this week they seem to be focused on terrorizing kids at bus stops and schools.
yes, there are no real signs of any big change in DHS activity here yet. In Chicago there really was after Bovino left and they basically ended "Midway Blitz" not so here so far.
I don’t know, declaring victory in MN seems premature. They’re still arresting people and brutalizing the community. The changes appear—so far—to be cosmetic
