The ICE man cometh Trump's Gestapo is here. It operates throughout the country. It can suddenly arrest anyone, with no crime alleged, and deport them for permanent imprisonment overseas. Will anyone stop this?

โ€œIt turned out ICE is not a Gestapo for undocumented immigrants.
It is a general Gestapo โ€” a secret national police force not just for undocumented immigrants but for any immigrantsโ€ฆand if Trump has his way, soon, even citizens.โ€

There are some family members I have had to go no-contact with, because they argue for the immoral insanity of the MAGA cult. It's not political differences anymore. If someone supports this vile horse crap, then I can't associate with them. Call it "shunning".

Our New Cold War: We May Need to Cut Ties With Trump Supporters I really hate this.

Itโ€™s time for people of faith, morality, and conscience to hold the people in our lives accountable for their willing partnership with this filth.
We may need to finally sever ties with our family, friends, neighbors, and co-workers who still champion him.

At Least Now We Know the Truth Itโ€™s ugly, but necessary to face.

POTUS and VPOTUS โ€œshowed the U.S.-led alliance something it needed urgently to know: The national-security system of the West is led by two men who cannot be trusted to defend Americaโ€™s alliesโ€”and who deeply sympathize with the worldโ€™s most aggressive dictator.โ€
