A Congressional candidate who joined an Illinois ICE protest found herself tear-gassed and viciously tossed to the ground by an ICE agent.

    “I love watching communists get body slammed by ICE,” MAGA darling Laura Loomer posted. “Communist and Palestinian. Pick a struggle.”

    The same Laura Loomer that was just up in arms about the reaction to Charlie Kirk’s death?

    They don’t even bother with putting daylight between the two opposite positions. I guess why bother.

    I love what Kat’s doing / done. Wish her a speedy recovery. I hope she wins. I hope ICE is doxxed and hunted.

    If I’m ever on a jury for someone accused of doing anything to an ICE officer. You will not be convicted.

        Don’t fuck ICE agents.

        I’ve seen a screenshot of a Minneapolis cop on Grindr who was bitching about nobody wanting to sleep with him. Praxis!

      Not that I would see one, but I dream of the day I get a resume with a gap in 2025 or they outright say they worked for the regime. I won’t call them out, but I will happily shred that resume.

        Why not call them out? They should be in prison in your scenario, not applying for jobs.

        Gap in 2025 could also mean being in prison

        Being a member of ICE should be a death sentence. Both figurative and literal.

        Remember, these are people who tried to send hundreds of children to Guatemala without their families, in the middle of the night.

    The same people cheering this on (see Loomer) are the ones who told everyone they had the moral high ground by being against political violence when it happened to their boy. They don’t mean what they say.

      Never believe that anti-Semites fascists are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites fascists have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

      Didn’t Loomer chain herself to a Twitter office door because she lost her account?

      And now she’s fucking the president while ordering around various high level staff. What a fucking country.

        You can sue the federal government. Qualified immunity keeps these assholes from facing any consequences at all.

          Technically vigilante consequences always are on the table, problem is that the likelihood of getting away with it is slim. Well at least until the feds fucking imploded on themselves and given how they fumbled the whole Kirk situation we’ll…

          I do not encourage violence. But I do find it hilarious.

          Sovereign Immunity is often misapplied and used to keep you from suing them too.

      This time the Nazis won’t have rocket scientists to shield their part in these atrocities so there will be no quarter for them. We won’t make the mistakes made after the Civil War and WWII.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
