Leonard Leo is a lawyer, but he's never argued a case in court. He's never held elected office.

But for years he rebuilt the American legal system, resulting in the Supreme Court's right-wing supermajority.

Millions of humans and trillions of non-human animals are tortured and murdered every year to feed the insatiable greed of a relatively small number of narcopaths. The populations of Western countries are complicit if they don’t at least try to extract themselves from the colonial capitalist system

📽️ WATCH: The U.S. government doesn’t track how often immigration agents detain citizens. So ProPublica did.

We found more than 170 incidents since the start of Trump’s second term. Americans have been kicked, dragged and held for days without access to lawyers.

Trump was asked by 60 Minutes about immigration agents using aggresive"H tactics like busting people's windows.

"Have those tactics gone too far?"

"No", Trump said, "I think they haven't gone far enough."

This is what that looks like in the real world.
