    We’re about to see another civil war, folks. Hope everyone is ready.

      No we’re not. ICE are truly gravy seals and the national guard is the real deal. If anything, ICE will shit their pants.

        And when ICE shits their pants, the big guns will be called in. You didn’t think King Trump would actually allow his little toy soldiers to be shown the door, do you?

        This will end badly.

          Who is he going to bring in and from where? The red states? I guess we’ll have to see how this plays out, it’s already in action.

            The military. Trump has already threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act against protestors, and the article states that 1,500 soldiers at a base in Fairbanks, Alaska, are on standby to be called in to Minneapolis. It remains to be seen how much of the military will follow obviously illegal orders, but I’m not overly optimistic.

              I didn’t know they had the standby soldiers, and I’m not super happy about asking 19 year olds who were trained to follow orders, deciding what is legal or not. It’s really another shitty thing trump has placed on their shoulders.
