I think it's possible we have seen the spark.
In 17 days, DHS has shot 3 people in one city, killing two.
A city which is safe, economically strong, highly literate, and led by the opposition party.
I think it is going to be never ending chaos until the midterms.
James Carville said something interesting about what’s going to happen around the midterms. Seems a little far-fetched but at this point it feels like anything could happen.

This is the whole point of these deployments- wear masking, beat up people, murder, terrorize the population, etc. Make the people hate maga, republicans and take their revenge.
No deployments in Florida or Texas with over 4 million illegal and 10’s of million legal immigrants.
I agree with everything else but it isn't true that they aren't deployed in Texas and Florida. They are in the top three for detentions. They are just doing it differently, not aggressively and on the street like in blue states. Their defense is because the red states "cooperate." Obviously they want to punish and terrorize blue states.

Border Patrol Commander-at-Large Gregory Bovino accused the man killed by federal agents Saturday morning of trying to “massacre law enforcement,” although it’s unclear whether the man was holding a weapon at the time he was shot.
“This looks like a situation where an individual wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement,” Bovino said.
Minneapolis police have said the man was a lawful gun owner with a permit. The Department of Homeland Security has said he was armed and that agents fired “defensive shots” after trying to disarm him.
Exactly what I suspected. They're just blatantly lying about something on video.
I mean this same guy claimed he was keeping rhe community safe when asked about detaining a 5 year old so it tracks.
A man helping a woman off the ground and a preschooler in a bunny hat are terrifying to them.
The accusations re the arrest of the 5-year-old have been debunked. His father fled & left him there alone. Ice didn’t arrest him.

“Where are the local Police? Why weren’t they allowed to protect ICE Officers? The Mayor and the Governor called them off?” Trump posted on Truth Social. “It is stated that many of these Police were not allowed to do their job, that ICE had to protect themselves — Not an easy thing to do!”
There is no evidence that Walz and Frey called off local authorities from assisting federal agents. In fact, Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara told CNN that federal officials attempted to prevent local police from accessing the scene.
Trump also posted an image of what he said was the deceased man’s gun, questioning why there were “two additional full magazines.”
“This is the gunman’s gun, loaded (with two additional full magazines!), and ready to go – What is that all about?” Trump said.
The Minneapolis police chief said the man was believed to be a lawful gun owner with a permit to carry.
Trump also claimed, without evidence, that the events are “a COVER UP” for theft and fraud in the state, referring to the long-running controversy over alleged fraudulent safety-net programs in Minnesota.
“The Mayor and the Governor are inciting Insurrection, with their pompous, dangerous, and arrogant rhetoric!” he posted, calling them “sanctimonious political fools” and saying, “LET ICE PATRIOTS DO THEIR JOB!”

For the madness of Trump to be over?
Just one blood clot needs to break free…
This doesn't necessarily get better when Trump dies.
Congress is a useless joke. Vance has no convictions. Miller has tasted immense power and won't give it up easy.
We are a failed state. A failed state rarely becomes functional in quick fashion just because the figurehead changes.

Can you provide a link? One of my relatives is a nurse at a VA hospital. How is military-loving MAGA going to spin this one?
