I'm not sure why there was ever any debate about whether Trump is a Hitler and his minions are Nazis.

Too bad previous administrations, Democratic and Republican, did not dismantle DHS and ICE, an organization that is more powerful than the FBI.

FBI SAs require a warrant to arrest anyone or invade their privacy or homes.

Same for the US Marshal Service (USMS).

Now we have this runaway train abusing residents of America without oversight.

We are all Russians, Chinese, and Palestinians now.

Aww, that's a shame.

The light of the Constitution being burned is so bright, it's scaring the Republican cockroaches away.
