Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content.

7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.

No - issuing a court order for ICE to depart the state of Minnesota immediately, and that any agents remaining in the state have no jurisdiction or legal standing as far as the state is concerned, and that they can and must be arrested by local and state authorities for breaking those orders would be “something”. Frankly, given that order, it would be completely warranted if cities in Minnesota started responding to ICE reports by dispatching SWAT teams. And hey - that’s actually a way that might significantly improve the public perception of their police forces: actually using their authority to protect citizens from an agency that’s clearly decided laws do not matter to them whatsoever.
Also, yes, that would 100% be a “constitutional crisis” in terms of states challenging the power of the federal government… but…
Really, I’ve lost count. I have no idea where the constitutional crisis count is at this point.
That's what I want to happen, but I'm afraid it will lead to A LOT more civil unrest, nationwide, which unfortunately means more people dying
I simply don’t think there’s a way out of this without some level of violence - primarily because I don’t believe anyone in the regime is going to allow a fair election to occur again - let alone a peaceful transition of power if they lose. If by some miracle they DO hold an election, and it’s fair, and it’s unadulterated, and they lose, the shit they’ll surely pull will make J6 look like a fucking kindergarten play date.
I mean, I agree with you. Things are probably going to get a lot worse before they can get better, and whatever "better" looks like will not be what it was before.
