Americans Targeted in Trump's Immigration Crackdown

Tuesday, March 10, 2026

The Wall Street Journal found that "the Department of Homeland Security, created in 2002 to protect Americans, has turned its force against citizens."

Secretary Noem acknowledges ICE and CBP can't shoot Americans for peacefully protesting, videotaping ICE officers or lawfully carrying a firearm, and yet her agents are routinely violating the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. There is a total leadership breakdown requiring immediate change.

One of the founding purposes of ICE was to be used against American citizens.

In fact, that's where Trump sees it's greatest and best use.

It was just a matter of time that an unaccountable police force being run by a fascist would turn on the public it was supposed to protect.

"The Democratic Party has a lower net favorability rating than its Republican rivals, President Trump and even the much-maligned Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), according to a stunning new poll of registered voters.

The NBC News survey found that 30% of respondents had "very positive" or "somewhat positive" views of Democrats, while 52% had "very negative" or "somewhat negative" views of Democrats, for an overall net rating of -22.

The alarmingly low score still represents a recovery for the party from its low point of a -28 net rating in March 2025 (27% positive, 55% negative)."

NOTE: This is from a NBC [dem leaning media] survey.

#3 Well, now, that poll certainly explains these recent elections:

('Tis like shooting fish in a barrel ...)

-> Georgia voters ousted two Republican members of the state's Public Service Commission in favor of two Democrats - the first Democrats to win statewide nonfederal offices in decades.

-> Democrats in Mississippi Break the G.O.P.'s State House Supermajority

-> Every single county in Virginia - even deeply red counties - saw shifts TOWARDS the Democrats, as opposed to how they voted 1 year ago.

-> Dems flip Wichita School Board from a 4-3 GOP majority to a 5-2 Democratic majority. Democratic candidates Amy Warren and Amy Jensen defeated Republican incumbents Hazel Stabler and Kathy Bond.

-> Two of Tuesday's school board elections were in Bucks County, Pa., which was considered "ground zero" for right-wing groups' takeover of school boards in 2021. A few years ago, conservatives on these boards in Pennbridge and Central Bucks districts were using their roles to pass policies targeting LGBTQ+ students and banning books.

---> Democrats flipped control of both boards in 2023, and on Tuesday, they ousted every Republican from both of these boards, except for one. The Pennbridge school board is now 8-1, with Democratic members in control. The Central Bucks school board is 9-0.

-> In Texas, we even won in Lockhart, which sits in a district so red that Democrats normally don't even run. We had a clean sweep in Cy-Fair ISD, another deeply red area that not even Greg Abbott could save your party.

-> In SD-9, another red district, we saw an 8 point shift for the Democrat

-> Eileen Higgins elected as first Democratic mayor of Miami in three decades

MSG is too stupid, or too in his bubble to understand that the poll isn't really capturing people's feelings about the Dems so much as their leadership. Poll after poll shows that people want the Dems to stand up to fascism with everything they can muster, to be fighters, to resist this fascist takeover of our government, not cave the way they did in the first shutdown. Dems are outpolling the Gross Old Pedophiles by anywhere from 8 to 14 points in recent polls, that portends an epic whipeout which has Diaper Donnie terrified and is why he's is working so desperately to federalize elections. Operation Epstein Furry isn't just distracting from the Epstein files, but from his cratering economy, and the midterm elections. He is praying that some IS lunatic will walk into Grand Central Station, or some well attended event and ignite a bomb vest so he can declare Martial Law and cancel the midterms, because minus effery, the Dems will win back the house by around 30-40 seats, and stand a good chance of winning back the Senate. Then they could Impeach him again, this time for starting an illegal war, and enough GOP Senators would likely vote to convict and remove him from office, because another two years of the Cankles McTreason show will certainly mean a Dem POTUS in the largest route since Reagan-Carter.
