Repost this as tjis should end Sen. Susan Collins career. She signed a blank check to ICE,Rs cut Ds input, without any enforcement mechanism for not having body cams, and zero training. She can't explain or justify for approving funding without putting accountability into the leg itself
She and the own all the shooting in ME, MA, TX and others that will happen in the future.
Today I made an unannounced visit to ICE’s facility in Scarborough, Maine. What I heard was unacceptable: no body cameras, no training, and no accountability. Johan Guerrero should be alive. Congress must act. Abolish ICE. End qualified immunity.
ICE smashed the window of a disabled Iraq War veteran, on his way to work, pepper-sprayed him, dragged him out at gunpoint, and locked him up for three days without charges.
This is fascism.
https://t.co/du9bv2U4pY confirms that George Retes is a citizen, a disabled U.S. Army veteran who served his country in Iraq.
Federal agents smashed his truck window, sprayed him with chemical agents, detained him for three days, denied him contact with his family, and released him without charges. He missed his daughter’s third birthday while sitting in a cell.
No person on American soil should fear being treated this way, least of all a citizen and veteran at the hands of his own government. A nation that can do this to a U.S. citizen and veteran can do it to anyone.

I worked at Queen's Park for the Minister of Finance.
I'm very familiar with the amenities Ministers have available to them.
Ministers typically have a private washroom, a comfortable couch and often even beds or cots available to them for use 24-7 in their office or in the workplace.
There is no earthly reason for a Minister who lives in Toronto to expense a nice hotel room, especially on nights the leg isn't sitting or cabinet isn't meeting.
But even so, Ministers get a car and a driver to take them home any time they want!
In other words, they weren't expensing hotel rooms to conduct public business.
Instead it had to be for a private purpose.
A private purpose they were hiding from their family.
Which the press now have every right to speculate about and ask them about.

@HelloStephano Such an embarrassment for USA to have a “president” speak to an ally in this manner. Instead of offering help and empathy “he” can only provide insults, hate & childish banter. Yes, God Bless USA, they’ll need it.
@HelloStephano The United States and Canada have been close allies for over 85 years, with peaceful and friendly relations extending back more than 210 years! 🇺🇸 🇨🇦
Trump is ruining that friendship. TRUMP.
@HelloStephano This is why the relationship will not just magically heal just because Trump is gone.
Too many Americans have bought into this stuff, and it has not only been MAGA accounts saying this stuff, I have seen way too many lefties pushing the 'how dare Canada ruin my summer' narrative.
Hi America. You have more wildfires than we do up here in Canada atm. Also, one of our firefighter pilots died a few days ago helping fight your fires, and you thank us by threatening tariffs due to our fires and wind direction…
@FoodProfessor@globalnews Why should Canada belly up to a meeting where the U.S. is not playing fair ball? Good for PMMC, showing we are willing to wait.
The insanity is now beyond comprehension. His own release of classified documents prove what Robert Mueller concluded was correct.
It wasn’t a hoax. It was very real, but hid then Attorney General Bill Barr deliberately misled the American people to hide the truth.
It’s a classic case of being Hoisted by his own petard.

Richard Gere: “Trump uses the same words that Hitler did. Calls them vermin. They’re not vermin. These are human beings. I’ve met them. He’s never met a refugee or a migrant. These are human beings like us who are usually running from a fire of one kind or another”
ICE arrested 4 members of Oglala Sioux Tribe….released 1
"There is nobody more American than American Indians! We are America, how can you possibly target Native Americans? It's legally impossible!"
I don’t ever want to hear anyone call Republicans the party of fiscal responsibility again. The Fart of the Deal guy bankrupted 6 businesses, including 2 casinos! As our country goes further into debt with him spending taxpayer money like a drunken sailor, he is making billions.
Imagine if Iran bombed desalination plant in the US, cutting water to 10,000 people in New York. What would you call it? TERRORISM
The US bombed desalination plant in Iran and cut off water to 10,000 people. Why do you call it PEACE?
This is a war crime under international law.
@epaleezeldin@MarkDWiseman Smoke from forest fires in the U.S. and Canada blow north & south. Canada has always provided aid to U.S., this U.S. elected official has no clue…how did he get elected?
@epaleezeldin@MarkDWiseman It is discouraging to see the absolute lack of knowledge/understanding this elected official has. How do these people get elected??
Make this make sense, otherwise I can only conclude that this administration is pure EVIL.
I would add that yesterday, the US deliberately targeted civilian infrastructure in Iran destroying all bridges, roads and rail links that lead from the Iranian port town of Bandar Abbas. This will now unquestionably lead to a humanitarian disaster in Iran. PEOPLE WILL STARVE.
The IRGC won’t care because they don’t give a damn about the Iranian people, but Trump was supposed to be liberating them not starving them. We are now into war crime territory AGAIN.
I would add that bombing rail and road links in the region was a tactic deployed by Saddam Hussein against Iran in the 1980s.
My thanks to Sen Tim Kaine for making this very important point and to Millennial Report for the clip

There is no way that Blanche should confirmed for the attorney general, after being referred to the New York bar for disciplinary actions. He needs to prosecuted for his actions.
@FoodProfessor Carney should be championed for getting the bridge opened. He’s dealing with a disreputable character & this new deal, in reality, provides very little to the U.S.
