"Does that justification actually work?"

It doesn't have to work.
No justification is needed.
Only Congress can do something about these murders, and Republicans in Congress aren't going to.

You're getting what you voted for.
Take a victory lap.

"they have a ton of stores, any can have a raid at any time."

A raid is not what ICE usually does.

A raid would have things like a warrant with names on it, and a plan. It might even require training. That's a lot of work for not a lot of quota.

Home Depot can have a policy that states ICE is not welcome in Home Depot parking lots to shake down brown people and demand identification from people who are not even being accused of a crime.

You think the pplice have a right to enter a private business and stay there against the wishes of the business?

You really are a fascist. I wonder if you know that about yourself. I suspect you don't.

"theyre not going to be able to stop them"

They aren't?
All these videos I see of people telling ICE to get the ---- out of their stores, those are fake?
Hello? Do we occupy the same reality?

"You've still offered vagaries about what they are supposed to do."

Fair.
It's more than Home Depot has offered, which is "we're not going to do anything about it."
Why are you asking me what Home Depot should do about it?
Maybe you should ask Home Depot that question.

"He then instructed his men to ignore the legal advice."

I wonder if any Republicans, especially Republican Veterans, would like to say if Hegseth gave his men an illegal order.

Westboro Baptist Church could do the funniest thing right now...

"She had no ideas."

Actually I was sold on "She's no different than Biden."
Okay. I'll take that.
Biden had his faults but the Biden economy did great, in fact it was the envy of the modern world.

It's one year since the election.
Is anybody in any way optimistic about the coming AI powered hellscape?

Find me a single person who says "this economy is really set to start booming."
None of you dumb Trumpers believe the economy is doing great.
None of you dumb Trumpers believe Trump is doing a great job with the economy and the TACO tariffs.

Trump's anti-immigration and tariff nonsense is lowering our GDP with no discernible positive trade-off, and you know it.
The cost to have ICE do all this Gestapo stuff is a complete waste of money.
That money could have been spent actually re-homing manufacturing jobs, but the only manufacturing Trump cares about is camps.

If Republicans ever get their act together: United Snakes.

We're one Arranged Marriage away from making China the good guys, compared to the Trump-Putin Crime Family.

Ha! Definitely a typo.

"some of you have no idea of where money comes from."

We're not supposed to know where political dark money comes from.
Citizens United makes Dark Money that a feature, not a bug.

Congratulations, Republicans.
You Built That!

"some of you have no idea of where money comes from."

Where'd your PPP loan money come from?

And Kamala out raised him in Billionaire money???

Facts are nothing to Republicans.

"Hegseth attributed the strike to the "fog of war"

What was our SSecretary of War's answer, when Eberly asked him to show us where it's foggy in the Caribbean?

"If symptoms are severe or worsen, immediate delivery may be necessary even if the baby is not full-term."

^
Well, there's your problem.
Delivering a baby that can't survive is the same thing as an abortion.
And abortion is so taboo in Texas, they won't do it, even to save the life of the mother.
Because what if some jury -- full of medical experts like you -- decides the abortion wasn't necessary?

Or, you know, just a murder, since we'd have to be at war to commit a war crime!

"I was on this"
on this? WTF does that mean?

It means people with half a brain and half a conscience
could tell this was a war crime when it happened.

Some of the more salient points stressed were that you don't shoot distressed airmen under parachute, and you don't shoot distressed seaman whose ship has been sunk.

Oh dear.
The military really is Woke!

"US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth has said he "did not personally see survivors" before a deadly follow-up strike"

Then why the ---- did he order a second strike?

The man is clearly lying.

Clearly. Lying.

"So, AI leans Republican?"

Grok leans fascist; that's true.
