Democrats Looking To Ramp Up The Fascism

[Winehole23]

Does Trump think he can censor our way out of a deadly pandemic or his way out of responsibility for dealing with it?

Apparently so.

meeting with business leaders is not an endorsement of their product. obama had a lot of tech leaders visit him at the white house in order to discuss things such as internet surveillance and potential regulations.

You said supporting, not endorsing. Goalposts moved.

Rephrase then: meeting with business leaders is not the same as supporting their product

Who invited DHS to police the streets of Portland, Oregon?

Nobody did.

Fed LE shot a protester in the head with a less than lethal round a couple of days ago, now they're rounding people up on the street.

Like we do now.

Glad they're dealing with the domestic terrorism

[Winehole23]

hard to see what crimes merit unbidden Federal enforcement, no matter how many times you call the crowd "rioters" and "violent anarchists"

surely you exaggerate, that's the right of pe ion. That dude the DHS smoked in the head with a baton round wasn't anybody's terrorist.

We are a nation of laws whether the mayor likes it or not.

You have the right to peacefully assemble. A far cry from reality in Portland.

Local and state police didn't ask for any help.

Are you familiar with federalism as a concept? It's normally a bulwark against overreaching federal power.

DJT is no respecter of states, counties and cities and aapparently neither are you.

The citizens are asking for help. If the mayor refuses to help, then the Federal government comes in to enforce the law.

This is pretty simple stuff, cut and dry.

Anything else is obsfucation.

Derp receives his talking points and springs into action.

Federal paramilitary cops are grabbing people off the street with no probable cause and hustling them away in unmarked cars in Portland.

Pretty cut and dried.

Why is it insane? Because he's black and he wasn't killed?

we don't need federal anti-graffiti enforcement, and in any case Oregon didn't ask for any.

On December 26, 2013, President Obama signed into law the National Defense Authorization Act of 2014.

Take it up with Obama.

Nah, Trump President, not Obama. His nationally coordinated crackdown on Occupy was before that, and was FBI coordinated.

Makes sense you'd cheer on Trump's secret police.
