However, I'm not holding my breath (I don't want to have the complexion of a Smurf 🤣) that the Roberts Court won't acquiesce to Trump's autocratic designs, yet again ...

Hegseth had made moves within the Pentagon to reduce the US Senator, Astronaut & Retired US Navy Captain's retirement rank and pension over a video where Kelly & other lawmakers instructed service members to follow the law & the Constitution - including refusing unlawful orders.

Here's a screenshot of the DOJ policy regarding use of force that largely mirrors the California policy I posted in the first image. From a policy & procedure perspective: any way you slice it, ICE officer Jonathan Ross was in the wrong.

Image stolen from my half sister, who has a degree in CJ.

But I guess we should stop expecting Noem & DHS to ever follow the Constitution or the law, as JD Vance has asserted that they have "absolute immunity" ... Not qualified immunity like all other US law enforcement, but absolute immunity - just like what SCOTUS bestowed upon Trump.

The US has never had a policy of "comply or die", nor should it ever have that policy - but the assertions of Trump, Vance, Noem, et. al. would try to say differently.

And §34(b) ... The reasonable alternative action would have been to get the fuck out of the way of the car!

No where does it state that it is permissible to kill a fleeing subject MERELY FOR FLEEING!

In section 33 and also says that officers are supposed to AVOID putting themselves in front of a vehicle that is moving or could move!!!

But, since ICE has the same level of immunity as Donald Trump ... 🤬

How can corporations continue to operate inside the United States when they are penalized by POTUS for honesty.

A corporate CEO's job is to make profit for the company, not bow to the whims of a unhinged, unraveling, autocracy-bent 79 year old toddler with a God complex.

They want a reason to crack down here like the Ayatollah is doing in Iran. Trump wants to invoke the insurrection Act.
