War on America

A federal police source, in violation of the Constitution, stated a military style raid on an apartment building in Chicago. Agents rappelled from Blackhawks. Doors were smashed. Apartments were trashed. Children were awakened and zip tied. Thirty to forty citizens were zip tied and held in U-Haul vans.
No search or arrest warrants were obtained beforehand.

Highlighting this:
This is part of a pattern we’re watching unfold in real time. The government is selecting targets—cities, communities, people it doesn’t like—and then deploying federal agents to find crimes. Not investigating crimes and following evidence to perpetrators. Choosing perpetrators and then searching for crimes to justify their detention.
This is the inversion of everything a constitutional system of justice is supposed to prevent.
In a legitimate legal order, suspicion of specific criminal activity creates the authority to investigate. You don’t get to pick your enemies and then rifle through their lives looking for something to charge them with. You don’t get to declare entire buildings or neighborhoods presumptively criminal and suspend constitutional protections for everyone within them.
But that’s exactly what’s happening. Chicago isn’t an outlier—it’s a demonstration project. A proof of concept. A test of how far the administration can go before Americans say “no further.”
And so far? We’re accommodating.
Our MAGA regulars should be along momentarily to hand-wave this away with vague equivocations.

How quaint the memories are when
even conspiracy theories about such things would have Republicans in an uproar.

This is not a time to joke about sombreros in a helicopter.

Black hawk helicopters swooped in, broke windows, and then zip-tied kids and threw them in a van?
Whiskey, I'll bet this makes you feel like a really big man.

I feel like a big man because I worked on a fan for a restroom today. Did you do anything bigly?

So you're avoiding taking responsibility for the regime you fight for every day on this forum. Noted. Oh you worked on a fan. Not going to comment on what you did in Chicago today with your vote. okay. You know you're in the wrong.

You know you're guilty, Whiskey. You're responding exactly like your duck pal. You're not one who will take a long hard look and think about what you're doing. The difference between you and the duck is that you know you're in the wrong. Doesn't matter if you admit it.
That doesn't mean fixing a fan can't be an entertaining way to fill a morning.
