Slightly on topic. Why has Trump had to pardon so many criminals who did illegal things? Because they are his FRIENDS, and he is friends with a large number of criminals who do illegal things. There's a word for that.
We need to hold every single one of these motherfuckers accountable when we're back in power. Hire more judges and prosecutors, because these people need to pay.
MAGA and these goons are on top of the world with their militia and masked goons assaulting and arresting anyone they can, Constitution be damned. The day of reckoning is coming!
Why won't they do ANYTHING about these ICE fucks? He lied to the judge's face under oath, and she lets him keep on keepin' on? He should be held in contempt of court until he decides to start telling the truth. He should be put in Cook County Jail until he does, in gen pop with some large Latino cellmates.
"A federal judge is banning immigration authorities from firing tear gas and using other riot weapons during protests in Chicago after video evidence and courtroom testimony from protesters, reporters and faith leaders revealed behavior that “shocks the conscience.
District Judge Sara Ellis also accused Greg Bovino — the top border patrol official for Trump’s mass deportation operations in Chicago — of lying in court about his officers’ behavior and his claim that protesters hit him in the head with a rock.
“The use of force shocks the conscience,” Ellis said Thursday. “The public has a strong interest in having a government that conducts itself fairly and in accordance with its own rules and policies"
Her preliminary injunction will continue to block federal agents from using chemical sprays, tear gas, or other so-called less-lethal or riot control weapons unless officers give two warnings, and unless there is an imminent threat to one’s life.
All immigration agents — including Bovino — also must wear body-worn cameras."
It remains to be seen if Bovino obeys.
But it's a sure bet Trump will appeal this ruling.
I understand the impulse to translate all this into german - but - guess what? - WE ARE THE BADDIES NOW - we don't need a veneer of german anymore to sound like evil psycho bullies ushering in a police state - we only need a twang of american speech
So this said her TRO expired at 11 am so I went looking to see what happened. She issued a preliminary injunction.
"I believe I speak for all teachers & students of Chicago literature when I say that Judge Sara Ellis opening her judgment against government goons in Chicago with all of Carl Sandburg's poem "Chicago" fills me with joy. My favorite line is "building, breaking, rebuilding": We will rebuild from here."

Unfortunately the MAGA six, white supremacists in the Supreme Court will overrule this judge despite all the testimonies and blatant lying.
They want a country run by rich, white men. It’s all part of the Heritage and Federalist plan and they are doing their level best to implement it.
Ta, Marcie. Of course Bull-O lied under oath. He lies every time he opens his piehole.

Chicago loves Judge Ellis ❤️
It’ll be great when they start to go after MAGAts. It’ll happen.
In the USA police sadism isn't condoned by our Constitution.
The masked men must be forced to remove their masks, they aren't DEA. The must be identified and vetted about their professional histories.
This bullshit is killing people and traumatizing children.
Must be why Stephen Miller is now living in a military base. What a coward!
Satan himself would be ashamed to be as cowardly and depraved as Stephen Miller.
Nice

Bovino had claimed under oath that he responded in fear after he got hit on the head with a rock.
"Ok, judge, maybe the rock was one of those already inside my head. Yeah. Yeah, that's it..."

Yep. Translating it into German misses the mark. To get it right, translate it into Texan.
Unfortunately, you are correct.

I think I also read that she ordered the release of Bovino's depo videos.
"Bovino wailed that the Latin Kings had put a bounty on his head"

Ain't they a mariachi band?
I wonder if a hundred lashes with a cat o' nine tails could persuade him not to lie to the judge. I guess I'll never know.
