Democrats threaten to shut down government to protect illegal alien criminals

[Billiejeens]

No. Where have I ever stated that?

I oppose ICE and the authoritarian state.

Do you support ICE?

 

[Luckyone]

That nutcase FAGAt in Minnesota was fighting/impeding ICE agents who were literally in process of trying to apprehend an illegal who had been convicted of violent crimes. It's time for you kooks to stop the lies.

He was a Veteran that was a nurse in an ICU unit whose job was to save lives. He was there taking photos, and it all began with him being the person to go after, when ICE agents started beating up a woman and he stepped in to help her. At NO time did he attempt to go after ICE agents.

He then stepped back and one ICE agent came after him and pushed him and then another 4 ICE agents stepped in when they noticed he had a gun (which he was allowed to have), but he had not taken it out for anything (it was still in the back of his pants). They then all got on top of him, took the gun away, all 5 pushed him to the floor, and shot him 3 times IN THE BACK (as the autopsy shows).

This was a CLEAR example of ICE agents being bullies and not police officers doing their job, given that Alex had never given them any cause for them to fear him in any way. He was just there filming what was happening and then defending a woman, which is what anyone with any heart would do.

You are a biased and blind-by-choice hater.

So much for insensitivity and heartlessness, every time Republicans try to do this.​

Senate Democrats recently signaled that they would be willing to shut down much of the government—again—rather than vote for a package that includes funds for immigration enforcement.
This seems a bit tone deaf, as securing the border and immigration enforcement were two of the main reasons President Trump was elected.
Several things are at play here.
Democrats are so scared of losing the new and burgeoning voting bloc they illegally imported into the U.S. that they will do anything to protect it, American citizens be damned. If a few thousand Americans have to be robbed, raped, or killed—and tens of thousands annually lose their lives to fentanyl and other drugs, well, that’s the way it has to be.
So, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (Asshat-N.Y.) said Democrats wouldn’t vote to advance the broader package if the current measure funding the Department of Homeland Security is included.
Translation: “If we don’t get what we want, we’ll take the ball and go home. We’ll shut the effing government down if you don’t give us what we want, even if we aren’t in power. Which means that we are always in power, which is how it should be, Allahu Akhbar! Ha, ha, ha, ha!”
Another shutdown to protect their fraud money and perpetual voter base? Funny, they didn’t use to like shutdowns of the vital, life-giving government.
~Snip~
Democrats in Minneapolis and their paid minions have turned what normally is the routine apprehension and deportation of violent illegal alien criminals into a civil war-level event. Playing with fire doesn’t begin to describe this. In days of yore, the likes of Walz and Frey could literally be “hung from the highest yardarm” for such treasonous actions.

Commentary:
The only difference between Democrats and children is that children eventually learn and grow up to be adults. This sequence is not followed by Democrats. They never grow up.
This time they have come out in the open in total defiance of American law and order. If we allow them to get away with it the children will be running the nursery.
I'd love to read the Signal app conversations of Tampon Timmy and Schumer's Chinese handlers.
Go ahead Democrats. Shut it down the gov't. No matter what you say, no matter what you do we won’t back down anymore.
Democrats have sought defacto war since they lost in 1865.
Now it is here. It may not involve combat but we conservatives can certainly gum up the works by refusing to cooperate.

Didn't we just go through a shutdown because Shumer didn't get his way?

And they are going to pull this crap again?

We are governed by criminals.

It truly is amazing.

<~~~~~~~~~~>
Indeed.....!, Democrats are deeply worried they will lose their majorities in Congress by lower census of population by loss of illegal aliens Biden allowed into the U.S.

 

[Doc7505]

It should be evident. ICE will kill you too.

You're statement is blatant lie from the start.
Alex J. Pretti is and was not a "Veteran" he worked at the Veteran's Administration hospital as a ICU nurse.
He specifically chose not to carry his ID and CCL and carried a loaded semi-auto pistol with one magazine loaded in the pistol and two high capacity magazines.
Even you should be asking about the intentions of Pretti by his actions and resistance/obstructing the actions of ICE agents.
You may choose to deny what led to his death, but don't lie about the facts.

Here is a slow-motion analysis of the shooting. At NO time was he doing anything against the agents

Start at 3:57. He jumps in between the agent and the other agitator and shoves his forearm into the chest of the agent.

And he did it while carrying an ILLEGAL CONCEALED WEAPON.

Felonies.

[airplanemechanic]

What's REALLY funny is this shows how absolutely STUPID democrats are.

The funding bill they want to block funds FEMA, the FAA Air Traffic Control and other agencies. ICE has been funded already by the BBB FOR THE NEXT 3 YEARS. So shutting this gov't down again will not affect ICE arrests at all.

God damn democrats are ******* stupid.

Really?
For Four years Democrats ran rampant using the following"

• Targeting Opponents: Critics, particularly Republicans in Congress, have alleged that the DOJ and FBI, under Attorney General Merrick Garland, have operated a "two-tiered system of justice." Reports have alleged that the FBI targeted over 90 Republican-aligned groups and individuals, including conservative organizations like Turning Point USA, in investigations, as cited by Sen. Chuck Grassley.
• Trump Prosecutions: A significant portion of the debate centers on the multiple federal indictments of former President Donald Trump, which supporters of the Biden administration view as necessary accountability for criminal actions, but critics view as "lawfare" designed to impede his reelection campaign.
• "Weaponization" Claims: A House Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government was established to investigate these claims, focusing on, among other things, the treatment of parents at school board meetings and investigations into Catholic churches.
• White House Response: Former Special Counsel Jack Smith testified that he never received orders from President Biden or the White House regarding the prosecutions of Donald Trump, stating he followed the facts and the law.

In summary, allegations of a "police state" are based on accusations that the Biden administration used federal law enforcement to target political opponents and coerced social media companies to suppress opposing viewpoints, and persecuted protesters of Jan 6th who simply trespassed the halls of Congress.

As opposed to Trump who did shut down the US government to try and divert attention away from the criminal activity in the Epstein files.
