Trump: “To all complaining Local Governments, let us know when you are ready, & we will be there — But, before we do so, you must use the word, “PLEASE.” Remember I stated to BEWARE — ICE, Border Patrol or, if necessary, our Military, will be extremely tough in protection of our Federal Property.“

Most cars with an auto unlock feature can also have that feature disabled. Whether to protect yourself from gov agents or as a smart safety choice in itself, you should consider turning auto unlock off.
Be smart. Be safe.

“The agents open the door, which unlocked automatically when she put the gearshift in park, they drag her out and force her to the ground. She said the agents were overly aggressive and physical as they pinned her down and handcuffed her, leaving her with multiple cuts, scrapes and bruises.”

As Oliver Hardy would say, "Another fine mess".... as Trump is trying to not just void the 17th Amendment, but seeks to bypass ratifying the change by the voters approving this by vote in each state. Otherwise he's not got time to pass it in Congress to be voted on by each state before November

As the midterms approach, we must:
1) fight for fair elections
2) ensure people on all sides have access to voting
3) vote out those more interested in partisanship than our people and Country
4) vote out those who are ineffective
Most importantly-
5) fight fascism and tyranny Every. Single. Day.

Says they can arrest you if they *believe* you’re an undocumented immigrant. They’ve arrested people who showed them passports.
Says they can arrest you if you’re likely to leave before they can get a warrant. They arrest people without reasonable suspicion or probable cause already.
