Considering how ICE constantly violates the rule of law and due process and ignores rulings by judges and bypasses the need for judicial mandates, and how the Trump regime seeks to place their agents above justice, police protocols and ethics, I can only conclude that it is objectively dictatorship.

In the murder of Pretti, even Republicans, conservatives, gun nuts, can barely deny what they saw. Hell, I have seen milsim gamers, who never talk politics, come out to blast ICE. And also see how the regime wants to make their agents immune to justice, investigations, ethics, police protocols, etc.

To #ICE #DHS:
It's not just the usual political lie: it's covering brutal murder, obstructing justice, blocking a real investigation, attempt at establishing impunity, etc. This is dictatorship level of lying. #AlexPetti probably didn't even insult agents and was probably the nicest person there.

Holy .... They have no shame. This is not an "administration": this is a full-ideological movement in power, that no longer serves the people, law, justice, etc.

This video shows how the ICE agent used deadly force for repression and frustration, and not for defense really. It is not their first crime, they are massive, but this one was more visible and directly fatal. Would a reasonable judge view this as police work?

It sounds to me like Ukraine's foreign minister is approving the overthrow of a government by a powerful foreign force, no? Not very clear, but the irony... Russian imperialism and invasions: bad. US imperialism and invasions: good? Destroying the UN Charter.

Did you know that "Administrative Detentions" by Israel began as early as 1948, though it is said it became more systemic around 1967. Historically, Administrative Detentions are a legacy of the British Empire, which evidently was a bad role model.
