We should start walking around with q -tips and zip locks. If they won’t show their face. Get some DNA and save it for the after trials. Be sure they see the samples being collected. Likely not reliable or admissible but, Freak them out. They should quit.

I know everything is getting worse and Trump is trying to dismantle America, but all of this is a sign of a very weak, desperate Presidency that realizes it's unpopular and has lost the majority.

The economy sucks, the Epstein Files aren't released, and people didn't vote for a MAGA dictatorship.

This is good, from Hakeem Jeffries. More of this please, in every conceivable forum:

"Sycophants who aid and abet the President’s vengeful schemes will not be able to hide from the serious legal consequences of their behavior. They will be held accountable."

Trump might have immunity, but ICE does not.

He won’t be able to protect federal agents from criminal and civil prosecution once he’s gone.

Their day of reckoning will come. Broken down here…

Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt of Oklahoma just criticized deployment of Texas National Guard to Illinois as a violation of his beliefs in federalism and states’ rights. “Oklahomans would lose their mind if Pritzker in Illinois sent troops down to Oklahoma.” About time a Republican spoke up about this!

It’s also his time in charge. If he makes the country suck, it’s his leadership. His legacy.

Here is a plan. We push back hard against his takeover. Protests, courts, strikes. We win the midterms. His tanking of the economy is already happening and can’t be turned around. We then message hard that Trump is standing in the way of the people. His policy did this and he won’t fix it.
