It bothers me that the judge is asking/begging instead of ordering Bovineo to comply or face immediate consequences from her court. Like it or not, she comes across as too timid!
The judge should make him write on a chalkboard 500 times, "I will not allow my agents to treat protestors and other innocent people like terrorists...."
Does this guy have a family? Wasn't he "Big Boss of the South" before he was sent to be "Big Boss of California" before being sent to be "Big Boss of Chicago"? Is he dragging a family around with him, did he leave them behind to go play Nazi, or is he just another example of the most divorced administration ever?
When a judge has to explain “leave kids and reporters alone,” the state already lost the plot. If the cameras are off, the confession is on. Power that hides its face isn’t enforcing law, it is staging fear.
I said already, what the expanded ICE is turning into is the Dirlewanger Brigade. Their purpose is to intimidate already marginalized populations, and in that they might succeed. But the collateral damage is that they are so incompetent that they are as much danger to themselves and their allies as anyone else, and so unsavory nobody else wants to work with them.
I won't cry for the ICE MF who gets iced, but I weep for the communities that will be decimated in the aftermath.
When someone gets pushed too far and pushes back, ICE's response will be horrific and indiscriminate, with lots of collateral damage. The worst part is that Faux-OAN-Newsmax will portray it as - literally - "a victory over the dark hordes overrunning America" or something equally openly racist and xenophobic.
exactly. That's why my objection to violence against ICE filth is strategic and not moral. It doesn't hep US and gives THEM what they wanted all along. But people have the MORAL right to defend themselves with violence, even lethal violence if it comes down to it. ICE isn't a legit LEA, and if we ever get back in control of government, several thousand ICE agents will HAVE to go to prison for kidnapping and torture. The Nuremberg defense won't work any better THIS time than it did the first time. If the courts can't or won't provide sufficient justice on this front. then extrajudicial means will have to become 'acceptable' for a time.
This filth must pay one way or the other. We CANNOT move forward from this movement until they do. There IS no future without justice and I am RIGHT of the verge of not giving a fuck where is comes from. We're running out of options here
2026 elections are gonna decide what the resistance will look like after those elections
I concur that nonviolent pushback on ICE offers strategic advantages, bc it fails to provide them with justification to invoke the Insurrection act.
....that said, when that line gets crossed, citizens need to protect themselves, and I concur that lethal violence lies within the range of acceptable options.
If a sane government takes control again - definitely an if, now - ICE agents must be tried and unalived, full stop, a la postwar Germany. their ideology needs to become shameful again.

Just wait until a Chicago winter sets in.
not advocating, just wondering...what's it going to take and how long will it be before the whistles become firearms?
OK, so which one of you nasty leftists beat him up and took his lunch money . This is all your fault!
ICE. A Gathering of Pigeons.
The judge should make him write on a chalkboard 500 times, "I will not allow my agents to treat protestors and other innocent people like terrorists...."
Doubt he could spell some of the big words.
Thems some mighty big words you got there. I suggest something shorter like "I'm a prick, I'm a prick" 500 times.
Any relation to EX-FBI guy DAN Bongvino (sp?)
;-)
BTW: What's that crying asshole even doing now?
Ta, Marcie. Greggie is dumber than the average cow, or plays dumber.
I think it's "plays dumber"
Otherwise he wouldn't have the thugs purposely turning off the cameras
"Then Bovino skittered out of there" instead of being remanded into custody for contempt of court. Until these people are jailed, nothing will change.
Exactly. That’s the only way they will “understand “

very freaky ghoul. Yuck Yuck. How many will know the song reference? I love your writing but God, the things these freaks do.
A central tenant of this administration is that rules don't apply to them
Tenet, but yes.
Thanks, I'm the victims of a STEM focused education.
The little runt Bovino looks like a NAZI goon! Lock him up and throw away the key!!!

Oh, they haven't lost the plot. Unfortunately for us, the plot is the Nazi playbook, and they are following it closely.

Great post Marcie. Makes me realize Chicago has it far worse than my town, Portland. Hope Governor Pritzker can sue the bejeebus out of them.
it sucks here
Heartfelt sympathies. Hang in there!
