  1. We will see how long this post lasts. The sub has removed and suppressed anything to do with this all morning.

  2. It doesn’t get any more obvious than this.

    They’re raiding election offices and arresting journalists now.

    Killing citizens in the streets is already normalized.

  3. Yikes.

    Honestly, I have been naively optimistic. I genuinely thought you guys could maybe “politics” your way out of this one, with enough grassroots Democrat support

    But yeah. Naw.

    Good luck. We’ll get that Underground Railroad back up and running as soon as we can.

    Zero basis to kill people at protests.

    Zero basis to enter homes unlawfully.

    Zero basis to kidnap people off the streets due to their race.

    Zero basis to deport people to non-origin countries that will torture/kill/abuse them.

    Zero basis to not give due process.

    Zero basis to create terror or chaos every fucking day.

    Zero basis to ignore judges and laws.

    Zero basis to lie daily to people in this country about what we are seeing.

    Zero basis to kidnap/traffic children and place them in detention centers.

  5. Its not about having a basis for the charges, its about punishing anyone who stands up to this administration. Its our government attacking citizens. It is fascist behavior, and should never EVER be accepted in a Democracy.

    So clearly we are no longer a democracy if Pam Bondi has a job in a month. Make of that what you will.

    Freedom of speech is at a near breaking point.

    MAGA, why are you so afraid of our constitutional rights? You screamed it for 4 years thinking you were being suppressed, yet you now sit here celebrating it.

    Once this is gone… we’re ALL doomed. Welcome in an era of North Korea, Russia and China.

  7. Jeffries is such a performative douche bag, only taking the low hanging fruit and not really ever making any progress.

    Start doing something other than running your fucking mouth.

    “But a dog can’t play basketball!” Meanwhile Air Bud Trump is dunking his saggy balls all over your foreheads while you cling to the rule book like it’ll save you.

    They’re not playing by the rules and haven’t been for a long time. Grow up and learn to play the game.

    The point is the arrest, to intimidate, harass, and silence out of fear.

    He doesn’t care what happens in the courts.

    Watching maga defends this is hilarious. Fuken cult would give up all of their rights just to own the libs

  11. And Jeffries will happily give more money to this lawless administration. Instead, they could hold back all funding until there are mechanisms to restore the rule of law. This is Jeffries’ primary job. The extra $10 billion funding request fir ICE will instead be paid out to the atrump family from their bullshit lawsuit against the IRS. While ajeffries opposed that specific request, he rolled over for DHS funding and funding of the federal government in general.

    The will go the way of Comey and James. Freedom of Press. No threats were made. Hopefully Lemon counter sues.

    And on the basis of this I am still not going to comment on Mamdani.

    If this gets taken down, mods are basically closing down shop. There is no politics left except for political, legal, and physical intimidation. This is the essence of Trump’s plan. If you can’t discuss this, please turn it into a DC gossip sub.

  14. Jeffries only defends his own, where has he been all year? He and Schumer need to go they are useless.

  15. Hey, Jeffries. When you do the bare fucking minimum (instead of wanting to abolish ICE and replace it with a more human, compassionate agency that is held accountable and gets proper training), this is the end result. You’re partially to blame here.

  16. Gosh, what a strong tough no-compromising statement from a typical feckless chickenshit congressional Democrat. 🙄

    About what I expected from this milquetoast clown.

  17. Trump knows he won’t be convicted. He’s doing this to intimidate other journalists.

    Well, he’s gay and black and too big for his britches and we just can’t have that.

  19. Jeffries is fucking useless as an opposition leader.

    Chick Shumer is fucking useless as an opposition leader.

    They are literally some of the only people with any institutional power to stop anything that’s going on and they just keep letting themselves get pushed aside while only issuing strongly worded letters in response. This level of incompetence should be criminal.

  20. Did Jeffries think the funding he voted in favor of was going towards white doves with olive branches?

    Can’t wait for Jeffries to do exactly nothing about this like he has about about everything else so far.
