The naive will now try to convince the Trump regime that surely, this cannot be the new normal.
The realists will figure out how to respond, because this IS the new normal.
There are 281 days to the midterms. Trump knows he will lose, unless he finds a way to suppress the will of the people. For that, he needs his paramilitary force.
@randahl will ICE be monitoring the elections given Trump's insistence that they're stolen?
I did see someone make a connection that ICE are active somewhere that refused to give Trump the keys to the election machinery.

@randahl aha - I'd been predicting the emergence of Gestapo-style trenchcoats. Didn't expect them to appear so quickly. Fits.

This is the Orange lunatic's I could shoot someone on 5th ave and not lose voters moment -
@pthenq1 @randahl
That's true. And even if it weren't, even if they still had all the money they wanted, they can't get enough people to do this. Not because there aren't enough white men that racist, but because there aren't enough so stupid as to sign up for this thinking they won't face life long consequences.The force in Minneapolis is at least a quarter of all the street agents they've got in ICE and CBP, and they aren't even controlling one city. At all.
And the military won't do this.

@randahl they are LARPing their way through ppls lifes/deaths until they are feared enough to shut down anything by just appearing. Ppl peed their pants at the sight of GeStaPo. That is what they are aiming at. In contrary though, ICE/GOP are dilettantes so lets hope they fail at that too.

Front and centre, the thug responsible. He should be in front of a court of real law right now.

@randahl is this being deliberately escalated so to intimidate people and suppress voting, clearly anyone who doesn't look purely European will be afraid to come out.

@oatmeal that is one angle. Another angle could be that fear and intimidation could make people move away from the country, and those most inclined to avoid the US are the left leaners.

@randahl I see.
[...] Although the administration has undertaken aggressive removal efforts, the negative number is mostly due to a significant drop in entries into the U.S., the report said.
I know many USians living in Europe with no plans to return - some have even renounced citizenship for tax reasons. Every time I hear about friends or family planning a trip to the US, I'm shocked. Why support their economy? Why take the risk?
In our family group chat, I've been asked not to post any #Trump / #MAGA-related comments or memes because some relatives have been routinely scrutinized upon re-entry, some are waiting their Green cards... possibly about the time to seriously forget about that and go back home.
The #US has added a level of authoritarian procedure in monitoring citizens' political speech to determine border treatment that even 1930s #Germany didn't have. Kudos. Soon #Russia, #China, and the US will be indistinguishable from each other.

@randahl this is not a โnew normalโ; unless we do something to change course, it will never be this good again.

@randahl we have an executive who seems to be able to shut down and send home entire executive departments with impunity, summarily shut down funded and lawful programs written into law, but the best congress can offer is to threaten FUTURE funding of DHS/ICE? The minority party needs to STOP insisting on playing only by the rules. The correlary to fighting fire with fire is fighting shit with shit. It hurts, but is it not warranted?

@randahl Let us also look at our own situation in Europe. How are far-right groups reacting in Denmark and elsewhere? In France, they welcome the ICE's methods, with some even saying that raids should be carried out to capture anyone who is not โin orderโ.
