    His full phrase was

    “It all goes back to the Dems who want to continually attack ICE and tell people to evade them, tell people don’t comply, tell people to resist, and tell people ICE isn’t a real law enforcement,” Homan said. “There’s still going to be more bloodshed unless they shut their mouth and let ICE enforce the laws that they enacted.

    Umm, can we talk about that very last bit?

        The ballot box is what brought us here. Every election for decades has resulted in more cops and more surveillance.

          We have more cops in America now per capita than nazi Germany had at the height of WWII, and that’s including all the gestapo, SS, and military police in the German count. DC has an enforcer with a gun and no consequences for every 60 people.

    maybe this is a radical take, but i think it’s funny that they call someone ‘the border czar’ with a straight face and then he doesn’t even look like a hardass. he looks like some random fat dude that’s melting from age, wearing a likely expensive suit that gives the impression it’s an off the rack ensemble purchased at the men’s wearhouse at a steep discount.

    a perfect symbol for america.

    stop worrying about it. these people already lost.

    Looks like a good justification for any interaction with ICE being an exercise in self defense. He just upended ICE’s legal basis for being held to be law abiding by any reasonable person. On top of being fascist, what an inept dipshit.

    Jesus fucking Christ. The article is worse than I thought. “Our guys are scared for their lives! Even though we are the ones doing all the murdering, we will have to murder even more of you if you don’t start obeying us, though our instructions are clear as mud and we aren’t even following our own laws!”

    The midterms will decide whether it is a troubled peace or a violent war that defines the next era of America.

      Obviously never going to happen, but i bet if the Dems did shut their mouth the bloodshed will continue as planned.

    “I’m scared to death because assaults with vehicles are sky high. There’s been a lot of shootings. I’m scared to death that one of these days, our ICE officers aren’t going to be quick enough. The bad guys can be quicker,” Homan told Fox News’ Laura Ingraham Wednesday night.

      It was self defense. I got in front of the car and it was slowly moving in my general direction. My legs suddenly stopped working so I wouldn’t be able to get out of the way if the car suddenly accelerated and my only option was to preemptively shoot to kill.
