      Nazis continuing to do Nazi shit and Nazi propaganda outlets continuing to cheer them on.

      I’ll state the obvious – they’re attacking an anti trump representative.
      The raid is obviously bullshit. It’s a threat.

      They raided her home over possible errors in her immigration paperwork filled out by her father when she was a child?

      What a completely normal and non-fascist thing to do. /s

      The judge that signed off needs to be investigated. The agents that carried it out need to be held accountable. The people that directed it need to be imprisoned; they are a dangerous threat to civil society.

      Wait.

      Wasn’t checking the phone records of republican politicians that trump was courting for a coup wraponising law enforcement?

      Weird how this is ok though.

      It’s almost as if nothing means anything.

      I’d like to think you couldn’t make this stuff up, but here we are:

      The raid stems from a criminal fraud investigation into the Somali-born congresswoman’s immigration paperwork, which was filled out by her late father when she was a child.

      My oh my. Digging deep into the fascist bag of tricks on this one.

      Hey look, it’s the weaponization of the federal government that the Republicans warned us about.

    14. Waste-Time-2440 on

      Just imagine Obama sending law enforcement into the home of a far-right GOP Congressman’s home, three weeks before the election, to “investigate” their nanny or housekeeper’s tax and immigration status.

      Fox News: “Barack Hussein Obama’s jackbooted thugs invade home of duly elected congressman with nothing more than vague suspicions of minor paperwork problems. The White House refuses to name its supposed anonymous source. Claiming electoral interference, the Congressman demands an apology and will join us shortly for 20 uninterrupted minutes while we dig into the latest abuse by a President whose own immigration paperwork is considered by many to be deeply suspect.”

      If you think fascism isn’t here yet, your head is in the sand.

      This is the kind of whackadoo MAGA stuff that people around Trump kept from happening in the first term. I’m surprised he hasn’t had Todd Blanche announce they are looking into Obama’s birth certificate yet. What a complete horror show this administration is.

      There is no excuse for any Democrat in leadership not to come out publicly and vocally condemning this abuse of power. Sure, it’s the federal government and they can’t stop them, but there needs to be unity from every Democrat.

    18. kevonicus on

      And they will stupidly compare it to Trump’s home being raided even though that was totally justified since he didn’t cooperate for months before that. Just watch.

    19. Fun_Buy on

      Is this the beginning of Trump and Russell Voight’s surprise? Are they taking out political opposition by any means?

    20. padizzledonk on

      The real villain/criminal here is the Judge that approved and signed this search warrant

      They need to be impeached and removed

      Im really serious when i say this- If Democrats dont get real nasty and weild the power we hopefully hand them next month with extreme prejudice and ruthlessness and dont start investigating and removing a lot of these people Trump has embedded in the Judiciary we are in really serious trouble, like way worse than we obviously are right now.

      Emil Bove is a federal judge for life, he is an example of one who needs to be removed. Aileen Cannon is another, but there are many

    23. blue_quark on

      Is this Trump’s October surprise he alluded to last week? Let me answer that – yes, it was a politically driven search warrant.

    25. etxipcli on

      So an actual malicious attack on a congressperson. I’m sure MAGA Mike will stand up for his branch.

    26. dorkofthepolisci on

      Oooh, so we’re at the “targeting political opponents with the judicial system” part of authoritarian creep

      Fantastic/s

      (No seriously, this kind of abuse of power is right out of the fascist/authoritarian playbook)

    27. socalspawn on

      The raid is a weaponization of the Department of Justice and Homeland Security to target a prominent political rival and appease the MAGA base. WTF has happened to America? The comments on Faux News express genuine joy at seeing her home raided (“Best Monday I’ve ever had and it’s only 7 am”). Donald is a disease.

      Edit: typo

    28. kinotravels on

      This is some next level fascist bullshit. We’re not forgetting that Trump is all over the Epstein files.

    29. OptimisticSkeleton on

      So they’ve officially become the new SS now.

      Fuck every Nazi and fuck every one who follows the Nazis.

    30. mgill006 on

      The Grand Old Pedo’s plan is to escalate fed action to get a violent response as cover for Insurrection Acting , unconstitutional federal meddling into what is constitutionally protected state controlled midterm election.

      We’ve seen it all before. We heard DJT ask GA officials to “find” votes, and Jack Smith proved Trump planned the J6 Insurrection. The Oval Office Idiot will do anything to stop the midterms and Democrats from taking Congress.

      Voting won’t be enough. Be a poll watcher, yes, but be prepared to take to the streets to peacefully protest en masse to protect our constitution.

      There, my version of shouting into the wind at an oncoming storm!

    31. _PM_ME_YOUR_FORESKIN on

      Is this not the tyranny that the 2a nuts have been droning on and on about all these years?

    32. doublethink_1984 on

      All from a party who claimed Biden weaponized DHS and the DOJ.

      Disgraceful and seditionst

    33. iamspacedad on

      I don’t think it has clocked to a lot of people that fascism is here, and fascism is doing what fascism always does. Wake the fuck up and lock in to resist it. Don’t fall for the leftpunching collaborators centrists who want to make nice with the fascists and the oligarchs. Lock in and get organizing with the progressives & leftists to fight back.

    34. scapini_tarot on

      they know they’re going to lose the midterms, and this is a strategy to make any Congressional investigations into Republican corruption in 2027 look like political payback instead of justice.

    35. AGrandNewAdventure on

      It’s amazing how few negative comments there are in here right now. It’s almost as if the bot farm that is responsible for pumping out all the negative political content was obliterated by Ukraine, or something.

    36. Super901 on

      This is totally fucked and WHY did I just read a goddamn article on foxnews?

      DID YOU SEE THIS SENTENCE?! —> “During her tenure in Congress, she has been plagued by allegations that she married her brother in 2009 in an alleged immigration fraud scheme.”

      No qualifiers, no nothing, just a horrifying, unfounded pile of bullshit, left hanging. Fucking eye cancer fox news is

      MinneAPOLIS, Minnesota here: that’s our girl. That is our fearless leader. She’s the one who stood ten toes ready to fight when that dude came and did his weird little vinegar attack thing at a press conference. You want to fix this country? Elect your own officials exactly like her. Hell, elect somebody half as left and a quarter as passionate, that person would still be better than 9/10 of every other elected official in the country.

      A forty year slide from trickle down, to unfettered capitalism, to dark money, to billionaires are untouchable Titans, to fascism. And an American public slept, lulled by a media dominated by billionaires who played bait and switch. Always with the fear of others, when the real threat was always within.
