Exactly. Criminalization isn’t a side issue, it’s the mechanism. Once the state normalizes punishment over policy, authoritarianism doesn’t need to announce itself. It just proceeds.

One basic pattern here is that DHS officials are engaging in violence simply because they are irritated at citizens protesting them. There is no plausible threat of violence here. He just wants to inflict pain, and believes there will be no penalty for doing so.
Big clash this afternoon between DHS agents and protesters in a residential street in Minneapolis, following a DHS agent hitting another vehicle. Tear gas was deployed in people’s yards and agents pepper prayed people.

President Trump hasn’t yet lifted a finger to address sky-high housing costs except to hit “post” on Truth Social.
He could start by telling House Republicans to stop blocking a bipartisan bill to build more housing and bring down costs.

In the Inferno, Dante claims that a human being can commit a sin so grievous that their soul is immediately pulled down to the deepest layer of hell, & a demon takes control of their body until they die.
That’s what happens to every ICE agent when they sign their contract. There’s no soul left.

Just to be clear, Bernie Sanders and Josh Hawley proposed a bill in the Senate a year ago, along with AOC and Luna in the House, to cap interest rates on credit cards at 10%. It is nice that Trump has suddenly decided to get on board with it in an election year.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

AOC: ICE has less accountability than virtually any law enforcement agency in the U.S., yet they are some of the most well-funded, operating with impunity—and we just saw them murder an American citizen in cold blood in the street.

Twice just standing here in my kitchen I have burst into sobs thinking about Renee Good, her wife and their child.
They murdered her in the middle of a morning on a public street.
She is not the first. And if there was any justice, this would be the end of DHS.
