He misses the point:

Kim Du Twat misses the issue with ICE and Border Patrol:

The issue with ICE for some of us (Even those of us who supported and voted for Trump, but now have “Lost our trust in ICE” ) isn’t the fact that they are deporting people, it’s the fact that they have become a brutal police force composed of unaccountable officers that are breaking simple rules that other policemen have to follow…things like identifying themselves, showing ID, rather than hiding their faces and remaining unidentified. Their tactics (and yes; I’ve seen those tactics up close), how they treat citizens who are not interfering, but are just walking by at the time of the raid  (I’m not talking about the stupid protesters, mind you). Enough of us, even on the “Conservative” or  “MAGA” side of the aisle are bothered by the actions of ICE and Border Patrol that the agencies have recently reduced their presence AND actions.  …Even those of us who support Trump have made ourselves heard such that Trump has pulled upon their leash. Do you really think Trump cares what the Leftists think? He’s doing it because even his base is unhappy.

Some of us dislike the fact that ICE and Border Patrol attack anyone on the street who they deem to be in their way when they make arrests…even citizens that are simply walking by …that they just ride up and immediately use pepper spray and pepperballs at anyone in the vicinity.  (and I’ve seen it up close and personal, so don’t just think that it is entirely sensationalized by the media…it really happens)….and that they believe they  can do so without consequences.

The fact that they believe they can shoot and kill (rather than arrest) protesters that irritate them is part of the issue…. That they can literally get away with murder or attempted murder and their agency will exonerate them and protect them. (Google “Marimar Martinez” for a really good example)

That they come upon anyone they feel like on the streets and demand proof of citizenship, and then decide if they are going to “Detain” those people or not if they can’t show their “papers”. No reasonable suspicion, just skin color…

The public (at least, apparently enough of us) has become tired of seeing illegal tactics performed time and time again by anonymous masked officers recruited for their brutality, from a pool of domestic police officers that were one step in front of being fired for their behavior before being recruited to ICE and Border Patrol and given a free hand at ICE and Border Patrol to continue their poor behavior.

Most of us DO want the illegals gone. But we also do not want a police force that believes that they can attack the populace, that thinks it doesn’t have to follow the rules we place on other police agencies because they are Federal…that uses insane amounts of violence and overwhelming numbers even for a simple arrest, much less when going after the “Worst of the Worst”…A police force that is unaccountable and unidentifiable. That cannot understand the differences between criminals and citizens…that has, apparently, no limits upon their behavior.

We had enough of that behavior back in the 90’s with ATF and the US Marshals. 

Most of us were happy to see the start of ICE actions, we cheered the thought that ICE would be deploying to deport illegal aliens until we saw how they were doing what they were doing and found out where the officers came from…and then saw excuse after excuse after justification made by Bovino and Noem and Homan excusing the behavior of those officers even before any investigation happened. This isn’t one or two rogue officers, but a pattern of brutality and lawlessness that is all of their agencies.

We are a nation of laws and rights and limits upon the agents of the State…. in fact, those laws and the limits they place upon Law Enforcement are what separates the United States from many other nations….and those laws apply, even to Federal officers. Without those laws being enforced, we are one step closer to a failed nation….a Banana Republic, as it were.

So yes, reigning in a brutal, out of control department of ICE agents is a needful thing.  We are a nation of laws, even for the law enforcement folks…Even for our Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement people. Federal officers or not, they still have to obey laws. They have limits for a reason.

I’m sorry Mr. DuToit thinks otherwise.

 

 

So with all the redacted names

Of the people, who even in the edited (redacted) version of the Epstein files….

 

Where are the arrests, the perp walks, the indictments for the pedophiles who are (blacked out) in the Epstein files….you know, all those names that are blacked out?  Those people whose identities are NOT revealed…..

Why aren’t they arrested…in fact, why are their names redacted at all? They are not “Underage Victims”, they are parts of an investigation into pedophilia. Why are they allowed to hide?

Perhaps if their names are withheld they are easier targets for blackmail?

Either way Pamela Bondi and Kash Patel live up to their reputations yet again.

I take it back.

I was wrong…..

 

It’s not just ICE and Border Patrol.

It is the entire Department of Justice now.Image

 

One giant burning Merry-Go-Round.

Maybe with a small bit of dumpster fire thrown in for essence.Image

It was bad under Merrick Garland, it’s more bad under Pam Bondi.

This whole Epstein debacle is demonstrating the lack of competence and honesty in the DOJ.

I don’t know why

But it seems that most of the mass school shooters these days are either transgender or wish they were.

This latest one in canada is a case in point:

Jesse Strang, 18, named as transgender Canadian school shooter who murdered eight before dying by suicide

I expect the investigators will soon find a “Manifesto” like most of the other shooters wrote.

There is a pattern. It is a sickness

 

ETA: I’m not the only one who noticed:

 

Words of Wisdom on a Wednesday 71

“Generally, you will regret the things you DIDN’T do more than the things you did”

“Education is the one thing you should never finish”

“Telling a woman to calm down is as useless as bathing a cat”

“The one for whom you cry does not deserve your tears, and the one who does deserve your tears will never cause you to cry”

“You never have to eat the words that you never speak”

“Not everyone lives, many simply exist”

“No one will care how you bleed”

“If your partner or friend can’t show respect for you, then they aren’t for you, no matter how much you might want them”

“Excessive pride and stubbornness often keep us from healing our brokenness.”

It’s gonna happen here too

If we don’t do something about the invasion, the cultural elitists trying to change our culture. (Like a Puerto Rican rapper doing his halftime show for the SUPERBOWL in spanish, and expecting the rest of the country to “Learn Spanish” to follow it…..And the fact that the sponsors allowed it!)

This is about Australia, but it’s a British issue too…and it is coming to America as well, aided by the same types of people.

And at some point, if we don’t do something, it will be the United States and our shared culture too: (watch this 6 minutes of truth that should make you fear the future if we don’t change it):
