To be fair, this has nothing on the situations where a federal judge finds definitively that something the government did/is doing is illegal but is powerless to remedy it.

Note that, those masked men could be anyone. There is a reason for government agents to show badges when they arrest someone.

They Pump So Much Stuff Into Those Beautiful Little Babies So I’ve been waiting for this meeting for twenty years, actually. And it’s not that everything’s a hundred percent understood or known, but I think...

"It looks like they’re pumping into a horse. You have a little child, a little fragile child, and you get a vat of eighty different vaccines, I guess. Eighty different blends, and they pump it in... So, ideally, a woman won't take Tylenol."

Somewhere in America, a young Hispanic girl is hiding in an attic writing a diary.

Big tough guys. This is not even close to the worst of what we're about to see. Take all the police violence we're already familiar with, triple it, and take away the training. Forget 2026, the U.S. will be an uninhabitable hell in a year at this rate.

If it hadn't been caught on camera-and if so many of you here and on other platforms had not raised your voices in defense of common decency-guaranteed this man would still be on duty brutalizing people.
How many more are abusing the authority that ICE badge gives them?

"They was terrified. The kids was crying. People was screaming. They looked very distraught. I was out there crying when I seen the little girl come around the corner, because they was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other," Watson said. "That's all I kept asking. What is the morality? Where's the human? One of them literally laughed. He was standing right here. He said, 'f*** them kids.'"

Watson said trucks and military-style vans were used to separate parents from their children. Other neighbors said agents destroyed property to get in the building.

"They had a big, 15-inch chainsaw with round blade on it, cutting this fence down," said witness Darrell Ballard. "We're under siege. We're being invaded by our own military."

β€œFuck them kids.”

That’s literally what an ICE agent said when ICE, the FBI et al. raided an apartment in Chicago, including with a Blackhawk helicopter, separated children from their parents, and zip-tied them to each other.

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality.

I don't know how to yell any louder.

I fully understand how difficult it is to remain focused on any one particular atrocity but this really ought to be a serious scandal and people need to pay heavy prices for this

Yeah, I’m guessing that when I’m eventually brutally beaten, abducted, and shipped off to a random foreign country, any treatment I receive for my injuries are definitely going to be out-of-network.

Decent odds that Hegseth is summoning top brass for a dumb reason *this time*, so that the next time he does it no one pays any attention.
