ICE will continue exactly as it has been doing since Trump's presidency began, and the courts be damned. They have already shown that to be the case time and again.

FWIW, I personally know several people who were scooped up in Camarillo yesterday. Not friends, but acquaintances of mine and friends of friends. And yes, some former clients.

#8: "Republicans are simply not able to articulate why they thought Trump would spill the beans on Epstein.
That's more introspection than they are capable of."

Bingo!!! We have a winner. MAGAs are INCAPABLE of either the type of honesty or introspection that would be needed to explain why they thought Trump would not spill the beans unless his name was prominently displayed on the lists of frequent Epstein guests.

I am ashamed to be an American under the presidency of Trump. He has ruined or is actively trying to ruin so much that used to be best about this country. I think the recent picture of the Statue of Liberty covering her eyes and crying really sums it up.

Once again, there appears to be a disconnect between real world situations and MAGA/rightwing beliefs. They don't believe we need FEMA and governmental emergency services because they are all a fraud run by liberals to steal money from working class red State people. On the other hand, natural disasters caused by Acts of God are also somehow a leftwing plot, and really don't exist except due to Establishment conspiracies.

80% of Gaza has been turned into a junk and scrap yard by Netanyahu. Not even Hamas was to claim it anymore.

If there is an Epstein list and it is not being released then it is only because Trump does not want it released. Which is only true if he is prominently named numerous times on the list. Personally I believe this list is like the grenade that almost blew up in MAGA's hands. Meaning, there is a list, and it is mostly prominent right wing politicians and donors on that list. So, per the Trump administration, that means there is no list.

As the Talking Heads used to say, "same as it ever was."

Thoughts and prayers don't cut it when your daughter has been swept away by a flash flood. Not even a little.

The most disturbing thing about MAGA nazis is that most of them seem unable to realize that in fact they are behaving like nazis and supporting many horrific policies similar to Hitler's Third Reich. It is easier to believe that MAGAs are stupid than to believe they truly are such horrific people that they knowing support a Hitler agenda.

Our slave owning Founding Fathers created a nation based on Christian values? LOL

America is about greed.

Keep it classy Taco boy!

Free Willy!

FFS, if you are not allowed to land in Antartica then we really have gone overboard carving everything up.

The fact is, there probably are a fair number of us who will make money off this financial statutory obscenity. It is the HUNDREDS of millions of working class Americans and their families who are Gerri g totally screwed but do not realize it yet.

Out rights to behave like rightwing gestapo are perfectly safe. ICE is hiring thugs, with high wages and great benefits.

LOL. Just wait until Netanyahu flees to America and seeks asylum.

If Scott's is going to post what sounds like pure racist garbage in #5, he ---- well needs to cite a reliable source.

Biden's fault.*

Well... In ninth grade I got a C in geometry... And in college I got a C- in statistics. (Though marijuana use did play a role in that Stats grade.)

Take a moment and think about what is being suggested... Time and space are not separate. Rather space is a by-product of time.

No surprise among those of us who have been following the campaign closely. The Democrats need to change. We need to appeal to the next generation and finally be done with the old guard. Mamdani is the face of needed change.

Once again I have to say... I would far prefer we have an open border that allows everybody and anybody into America than the current abomination that Trump and his MAGAt cultists have allowed ICE and law enforcement to become in regard to immigration. The notion of deporting people (including children) to nations, or even continents with which they have zero connection, no family/friends/support, no knowledge of the local language, culture or even most basic elements of daily life is Kafkaesque and a moral travesty. There is no action that more loudly proclaims the US government under Trump does not care if these immigrants live or die or are subjected mistreatment beyond imagination. What's next? Lining them up against a wall and shooting them?

Chuffy, you sound like an annoyed tv pundit who expects everyone to have an instant concrete opinion about every event or issue that arise. Usually it is prudent to observe how different nations and leaders react before instantly jumping to a conclusion about how a huge and complicated set of circumstances will play out over the short, middle and long term. Sorry. But that is what smart people normally do.

LauraMohr: For what it is worth, I do NOT support this action today. I am honestly trying to evaluate what has now actually happened and how it may play out. But in your eagerness to pigeon-hole everyone of either being with you or against you, you make entirely incorrect assumptions.

TH, you really are mastering the art of moving the goals posts and creating strawmen. The topic of this thread and my posts are specifically about the bombing of Iranian nuclear development facilities by the USA earlier today. You are eager to widen the field to tie America's actions today with the Israeli actions in the Gaza Strip. They are in fact two different events with two different targeted victims and two different goals. But you keep ------- that chicken.
