If they protested....they were ushered out....and I mean right now....tasered if necessary....as Marjorie Taylor-Greene pointed to the exit and said...."Go....go....go....if you want to sit and listen....you are welcome to listen....or get out!" Folks....you do not voice anything against Trump or any of his policies in this....Fishy government. I'm alluding here to what was known as.....Vichy France....which collaborated with the invaders....and became authoritarian in themselves....thinking that they could lessen the tyranny if they played along....which is what many Republicans in Congress are doing right now. You do not read what they do not want you to read...or watch or listen to what they do not approve of. If you do not completely comply....you will be either shunned....or purged.
There were ways to go after and deport the MS-13 gangs that would have been both effective and constitutional....but Trump got himself in a bind. He had to produce numbers right now....and collateral damage did not matter.
The definition of a....police state....according to dictionary.com is....."A nation in which the police, especially a secret police, summarily suppresses any social, economic or political act that conflicts with government policy." We in America are in danger of veering off into a police state....with the "police"....interpreted here as this now political Department of Justice and its many arms....and the "secret police" element....being executive orders and such....suppressing anyone...."conflicting with government policy".....that being....conflicting with Trump's demands.
Addendum: I mention fairly often in these posts how forty years ago in the church we knew that we were in the last of the last days and that difficult times were coming....and I also would mention that today we neither know about these things....or even care about them....but in retrospect....even back then we had no idea how powerful the delusion was going to be on and in the church. It never entered our minds....as far as I recall....that we were going to be the ones falling for the delusion....but we did....we fell hook, line and sinker for this genuine biblical false prophet....and are propagating the horror. We actually were the ones to pave the way and make straight the road for him. He changed us in so many ways....none of which were for the better.
