This is a must-read about what the Trump Administration is really up to with the arrest of Don Lemon. They are using a 90’s policing tactic called “Broken Windows” theory and are applying it to protestors.

The fact that ICE resides under DHS instead of DOJ is a systemic flaw. ICE was never intended to interact with US citizens, who have different, constitutionally protected rights than illegal immigrants.

To be clear: having a firearm isn’t evidence of anything because if it were, Kyle Rittenhouse wouldn’t be regarded as a hero by the Republican Party when he showed up to a protest with a friggin AR15!!!!

Trump defenders like to boast that he’s the “most effective president in US history.”
You know who else is effective? Serial killers.
Anybody can be “effective” that doesn’t mean it’s a good thing.
Anyone can be “effective” if they’re willing to abandon human decency.
