Kristi Noem, the homeland security secretary, said officers had not used pepper spray and similar measures limited by a judge’s order, then was confronted with a video that showed chemical agents deployed.
I’m of hearing multiple examples of legal observers being sprayed, as well as being shown their home address and threatened with arrest for merely bearing witness.
The number of House Democrats signed up to impeach her was 97 as of Friday evening
Where are the local police?
Where are the state police?
Maybe I’m naive, but surely if someone violates a judges order that places them in contempt and subject to arrest?
Local and state police are outnumbered by ICE + Border Patrol, and a fair fraction of them are on the side of ICE as well.
So they’re cowards. If they can’t fulfill their duty, they should step the fuck down. Just because there are more ICE agents doesn’t mean anything. If someone obstructs, arrest them too. It’s very simple and ACAB and this is further evidence to support that.
Yes, most cops are cowards. They’re very uninterested in taking risks for the community, and would rather posture instead.
It feels a little weird to OSINT my own country’s civil war
So your first argument is that police can only enforce laws if they have more force, not because the state/government delegated them to do it? Surreal
It’s not “if they have more force” but in a practical sense, its actually risky, and cops are incredibly wimpy
First cops can’t enforce the symbolic order because they don’t have overwhelming power. Then the judges are afraid to make a resolution that no one would enforce either way.
BIL is a deputy and refuses to work on patrol, only works the courts because the streets are too scary… asked him if maybe he should pick a different job if he’s that afraid. “The pension and benefits are too good”
Well, I sure hate that.
Tbh, I’d prefer a panicky cop work a court room than be a beat cop
Yup, that’s how you get cops who can’t even fathom what “de-escalation” means
You’re right, but I feel like we should have a better standard for who’s allowed to be a cop in general for a lot of reasons.
Court room cop seems like a gravy ass fucking job though.
He’s not wrong about the benefits. I don’t know any other jobs that have pensions or benefits like cops. And they retire young too.
Most of them converted to ICE.
Should be every single one of the 212 House Democrats signed into this, what in the actual fuck.
Pretty sure they didn’t, but happy to entertain your theory.
And before I get downvoted to hell, I’m legitimately wanting to see the evidence because I’m really pushing my Dem candidates to show me they have plans and AREN’T going to be the get along gang next term.
I think that’s their point. They are saying every house Democrat should have signed it and it’s crazy they haven’t

Can’t be a war crime if you do it to your own citizens. That’s what their tax dollars are for.
I propose that we all stop paying taxes until these inept and treasonous pieces of shit are no longer in our government.
How does it go again?
No taxation without representation!
Something like that, yeah.
Happy to see my Rep at least signed onto the bill.
EDIT: And you a word in the description
Make sure you tell them. Positive reinforcement helps
Indeed. I did before I wrote my comment.
Mine hasn’t. Bleh
