You know who has been warning about this for months? Democrats.

But the people who had no plan to deal with this crisis and still don’t want you to believe this is about “illegals.”

PAY ATTENTION: ICE is filing fake 911 calls in Chicago, weaponizing emergency services to provoke local police.

Ordinary citizens would be charged with a felony. ICE calls it strategy.

There are some very wealthy people who have a social conscience. The Kennedy family. George Soros’ son. Greed, although often taught in families, is also a choice.

An aspiring tyrant in the making…

Stephen Miller was always a POS. Here he is in high school, already looking middle-aged, giving a student government speech:

The very first statute authorizing domestic use of the military during domestic emergencies, enacted in 1792 by a Congress full of the same folks who wrote and ratified the Constitution, expressly provided for judicial review in certain circumstances *before* the President could even send troops.

Happening now: at Kedzie and 40th, where Border Patrol agents just opened fire on rapid response this afternoon. A woman CFD says they found after the incident is reported in fair condition.

A growing number of outraged neighbors have gathered across from ICE/CBP agents who have closed Kedzie.

Can Miller really believe this? If so, he is delusional. If not, then he’s a reprehensible demagogue.

Republicans routinely break Democratic filibusters to push through judges and Trump appointees. It only takes 50 votes to suspend the Senate rules. Democrats tried to do it in 2022 to reverse Citizens United and Manchin/Sinema stabbed them in the back.
