Minnesota members of the United States Congress made an "oversight visit" to the Federal Whipple Building but were removed shortly after arriving.

I was just denied access to the ICE processing center at the Whipple Building. Members of Congress have a legal right and constitutional responsibility to conduct oversight where people are being detained. The public deserves to know what is taking place in ICE facilities.

Selected USCP officers should be deputized as US Marshals, like Felon Musk's private bodyguards, in order to accompany congressmen to these ICE gulags (or anywhere for that matter).

In the video you could see the ICE goons acting like Japanese tourists zealously photographing their fellow citizens, populating the ever-growing DHS electronic gulag in order to persecute these witnesses in the future.

A brigade of heavily armed Border Patrol agents are lurking about like a troop of angry chimpanzees.

USA: Third World Banana Republic.

Superbowl LX in Santa Clara, CA, multi-state FIFA 2026, America250 celebrations, and the 2028 Summer Olympiad in Los Angeles are all coming up one at a time.

You mean they were behaving just like the protesters, in this particular case? You can't have it both ways. Collecting information with cameras is not the same thing as being a terrorist. Neither is being passive aggressive. This rhetoric doesn't wash, no matter which side is using it.

This country is So Screwed.

None of this is remotely "Normal".

Trump is Waging Asymmetric War on Americans who resist his illegal Authority.

The protests in Iran are going to seem small compared to the coming Chaos here.

Will another country offer to bomb the US to "protect" the Protests?

"Freedom is Coming,like never before"

To Quote the Dotard in another context.

Why does he "care" about Iranians but not Americans?
