    1. I guess if our “leader” has 43 felonies we should try to match him by stopping ice anywhere

    2. So many grotesque people gathered in one spot. Good job, fellow Americans!

      Also don’t forget to check out the new pages on the White House Major Events page. Among the histories, they’ve now uploaded a photo of Clinton and Lewinski, Hunter Biden smoking in a bathtub with a blurb about cocaine found in the white house, and other gems.

      ETA: here’s the link. Scroll down to Major Events

    3. Fortunately, that immunity is only from civil cases.

      If a federal agent is breaking a law or violating the 4th amendment, they are not immune from prosecution.

    4. Stephen Miller and Russell Vought are waiting for Trump to pass away so they can finish their Project 2025 plans. They have already completed 48% of the project. We know their plans, and right now they’re keeping Trump distracted with his gaudy ballroom plans.

      Half Truth

      #Steven Miller’s claim isn’t wrong but not completely correct.

      #Federal Immunity: This protects government officials, including federal employees, from liability in civil lawsuits unless their conduct violates clearly established statutory laws or constitutional rights.

      #The Supreme Court established the current standard in Harlow v. Fitzgerald, which focuses on whether a “reasonable person” would have known their actions were in line with established law.

      #The immunity does not cover openly illegal actions like wrongful detainment, wrongful arrest, harassment, intimidation, overreach, or police brutality.

    6. I guess they don’t care about states rights anymore…. I’m kidding, I know they never cared, they only mention that when they want to defend slavery.

      TIL Seditious Conspiracy involves observing and enforcing the US Constitution’s separation of powers and its protections of the American people.

    8. Miller is an actual genocidal maniac. I’d say he should eat shit, but he *absolutely* looks like he has a scat fetish.

    9. I feel like we need to send a bunch of “How does the government work?” coloring books to Washington.

      They still won’t get it, but it might distract them for a while.

    10. Well if the law and constitution was still enforceable I would say he is just talking out of his ass but since they are allowed to do whatever they want now ICE will certainly operate as if they were immune from ALL accountability. I can’t wait until we decide collectively that we have had enough of the corruption and fascism so we can restore some degree of order.

    11. Oh ok. So, if join ICE, I can go arrest Stephen Miller for all of his crimes, which are valid reasons to arrest him, I would be protected? Interesting 🤔

    12. Federal immunity sure so let’s start charging them at the state level where the DOJ can’t do anything.

    13. >Federal immunity can refer to the U.S. government’s immunity from being sued (sovereign immunity) or the protection granted to government officials from lawsuits (qualified immunity). It can also refer to immunity from prosecution granted to a criminal defendant in exchange for testimony.

      It does not give them carte blanche to commit felony assault. It does not make them immune to state criminal charges.

    14. Steven Miller is not a lawyer. He does not have a law degree or law license. He does not know what he’s talking about and anybody taking his word for what the law is should consult with their own counsel.

      So these people, untrained, unschooled, just hopped up off their couch, put a mask over their face, and have more protection than police officers !?

    16. Miller talks tough but he’s just a deputy chief of staff and “advisor” to Homeland Security. He holds no office or official rank that gives him executive or police authority. He’s just Trump’s little toady. He needs to check his tongue if he thinks he’s going to threaten governors with arrest.
