re: Just for clarity, “big government” is not ICE operating on a mandate of the voters…

The principles are the same, much like the laws being upheld, as before. Wraslin' with LEOs while armed has always been a high risk scenario. Same as before.

Calling it by another name only makes you feel like your prophecy of a nazi king is coming true, because all your eggs have been in one basket the entire time ;)

If the memo is just as the media presented it, we would have jpeg images of it on every internet news site.

We don’t.

Ergo, it’s not as they presented it.

You are leaving out some key context for some reason

Big Government is establishing DHS to begin with.

Big Government is giving the government enhanced surveillance capacity to "keep us safe"

Big Government is increasing funds for DHS and therefore ICE to begin with and statutory expansion of their powers....or in this case a generous interpretation.

Big Government is the governing class telling the voters, "Oh you want increased erosion of your liberties under the guise of safety.....we thought you'd NEVER ask"

If Congress can just pass a law that says that illegal immigrants cannot vote in any elections and cannot be counted in the census then the Democrats will kick them to the curb. unfortunately, our Congress is useless.

Accurate

You're all for increased state activity now that your "team" has the ball . Whether it is ICE / CBP being used as an intimidation force or the government becoming stock holders in private companies.

You are probably right up there with SDV.

So you would look for another excuse to move the goal post. Got it.

Marxist/Democrat plan was to flood the country with an open border. Not require voter ID. Have these people vote. Fund them all with tax payer dollars.
Then when the time came and someone declared the obvious, the plan was to scream due process, civil rights and racism.

It’s brilliantly evil.

Interesting to see you in a thread like this playing the “moderate” card again.

You and other posters called me a retard for not wanting to shut down the world during Covid. There wasn’t a mandate that you didn’t support, down to letting people out of their homes. “It’s a novel virus retard, quit watching Faux news” was one of many comments you made.

Now this is your stance?

Lolololol

ALL spot on and factual.

All started under The Patriot Act (was never even read.) It used the same excuse to erode civil liberties under the same guise of, "to keep you safe!".

And now the War Dept has decided to expand its base of operations. IN MINNESOTA.

"Migrant Crackdown" OR as a future operation base to enforce Martial Law?

“The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) requests support from the Department of War (DoW) to provide existing infrastructure to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), a component of DHS, specifically an area for parking approximately 300-500 vehicles and 10 storage trailers, a ready room space for approximal 500-800 CBP personnel, a space to house, maintain and operate five CBP Air Assets, access to a magazine to store munitions, and other necessary facilities to support operations in the Minneapolis, Minnesota metropolitan area,” the email said.
