MINNESOTA — Mom goes outside to warm up her car, ICE grabs her: "Please, my car kids are all alone in the house!”

So nothing has changed and Homan was just to put a new face on the cruelty, got it

Bovino = scary

This is what Margaret Atwood wrote about. Wake up people. How do we cut through? It sounded extreme to say this in 2020 but now? Bovino gives me vibes of the bad guy in “fifth element”.
Chris Murphy: "This is really scary because what Bovino essentially told you is that if you just happen to be present when they are undertaking an operation, if you pull out your phone to record it, the use of force against you is justified. That is not true, it's not what the law says."

Suella Braverman’s parents emigrated (those horrible economic migrants not from a war zone she hates).

She went to Cambridge for free and didn’t collect £27k debt like everyone else. Scrounger.

She used the Erasmus scheme to study in France. Which she has blocked.

Horrible.

Those 😏 about Cruella joining reform. The Last person I spoke to 2y ago called hr “that poor girl who lost her job for stating facts” he told me I’d never find wheel nuts for my old vehicle. I did. He was wrong. Not a nasty person just small minded . There’s lots of miss informed people out there. 😰

Nigel Farage, has proposed a mass deportation plan called "Operation Restoring Justice," which includes creating a "UK Deportation Command" modelled on the U.S. ICE.

Don't vote Reform unless you want innocent blood on UK streets like we see in the USA.

He pretends to be outraged when war memorials are disrespected during marches that pass by them but the actual denigration of British war dead?

Trump on NATO:

"The problem with NATO is that we'll be there for them 100% but I'm not sure that they'd be there for us, if we gave them the call".

We did get the call on 9/11. 26 NATO members sent troops to defend the US. Hundreds died doing so. It was the only time Article 5 has been activated.

They are targeting children because they are trying incite violence. I have talked to many journalists today, and they all made the same observation: Border Patrol and ICE have been rolling around with maximum aggression, lingering for ages as crowds, gather, seemingly trying to cause a riot.

This video filmed by Ben Luhmann shows the moment a federal agent sprayed chemical irritants directly into a man's face in south Minneapolis.

Three agents already had the man pinned to the ground when a fourth agent walked up and sprayed the irritants.
