Just a quick note to any rogue federal agents planning on operating Portland-style in Manhattan without ID, or uniform, or (for all we know) warrants: the statute of limitations on kidnapping will not have expired by the time I take office.

(1,670 posts)Who would enforce the warrants and make the arrests?
It's is looking more and more as if these paramilitary units were invited in by the Portland police union. The OSP is getting notorious for having white power fans in their ranks.
Police unions and departments across the nation may not realize it, but what the Portland police union did with the full and open coordination of the trump administration is the best argument so far to defund the police. By ignoring the wishes and direct requests of the duly elected officials they have in a very real sense overthrown a democratically elected regime. In short the Federal government has initiated a coup on behalf of an unelected faction.

Good luck with all that legal stuff. The rule of law no longer exists in this country. We live in a police state.

(58,785 posts)I fantasized about police arresting them, but these federal goons are there legally, courtesy of all those who misused their voting power.
I don't like politicians who lie to the electorate, ESPECIALLY when they're supposed to be on our side but fooling us and making us look bad in the process. Let that to the Republicans. This blowhard knows she couldn't indict and prosecute these federal agents for kidnapping.

(21,852 posts)That's how you get their names, affiliations, as well as the name of their comrades.
You go to the rental car service and based on the license plate and a subpoena, you find out who paid for the car and whose drivers' license was produced.
Follow them and see where they are sleeping at night. With a subpoena, you ask the hotel who signed the register, who paid, what identification was produced.

(10,246 posts)federal agents, force them to identify themselves or arrest them?

(86,779 posts)They have no authority and yet they are dictating the actions of the local police usurping the real authorities. That is the problem, and they are the enemy of We the People whom they have been hired to protect and serve. Instead, they have declared war on us.

(6,823 posts)We offered a bounty for someone to kidnap some of these goons. Fair is fair. If they kidnap we can too.

(2,597 posts)tRump only targets communities with female mayors and/or governors. It's a pattern I posted about last week. I finally heard either Lori Lightfoot or Keisha Lance Bottoms mention last evening on MSNBC. They're aware of this and and I think they've noted the pattern of this misogynistic regime. tRump for whatever reason cannot abide strong women and definitely not women "in charge".

(86,779 posts)But the governor is a woman so... she's had run ins with militias before (Malheur facility) so I think she's no fainting violet which the DC clown show will be finding out.

(21,046 posts)We need to talk about the sexism in the societal mix of issues.
Do you know what Derek Chauvin and George Floyd had in common, besides being adult males?
They had both committed violence against women in the past, but we are not allowed to talk about that.
Also, there are incels like hitman Roy Den Hollander out there. He had a woman judge on his hit list they found in his car.
Some of the mass shooters in the past have specifically targeted women and killed only women. These pieces of shite are held up as role models to be emulated by incels and other woman haters.
