🚨 #GVerse MIKE JOHNSON SAYS #FuckICE DOESN’T NEED JUDICIAL WARRANTS

He just claimed administrative warrants are signed by an immigration judge. That’s FALSE. Administrative warrants are signed by #FuckICE THEMSELVES. No judge. No court. No Fourth Amendment.

Is he LYING or just a huge IDIOT?

The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting. We have states that I won that show I didn't win. You're gonna see something in Georgia"

"There’s no talk about a mutually beneficial relationship; Canada, Trump says, is not even a vassal state. Its very existence is dependent on the US, which means it is dependent on him personally.
