Medical Pros Don't Like Working in ICE Concentration Camps

Medical professionals from the Public Health Service have been sent to help out at ICE's concentration camps.

Here's a shocker: A number of them don't want to work in conditions that are so inhumane and they're quitting.

ICE is evil. We are fucking with the soul of our nation in letting them do what they do.

Shut the motherfuckers down, investigate them, and, if warranted, try and convict them. They are, arguably, guilty of crimes against humanity.

Reverse King Midas at Work, Plus More!

Everything Trump, the Bizarro King Midas, touches turns to shit:

Meanwhile, it is also bizarre that the Chinese Communist Party cares more about automobile safety than does the DOT:

China will ban hidden door handles on cars, commonly used on Tesla’s electric vehicles and many other EV models, starting next year.

All car doors must include a mechanical release function for handles, except for the tailgate, according to details released by China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology on Monday.

Tesla, on the other hand, is happy to re-enact the Apollo 1 fire with its customers playing the astronauts.

GOP Cares Only About the Rich, Not About You

This is the Famous Patent Medicine Pusher, who now works for Brainworm Bobby:

Dr. Mehmet Oz, President Donald Trump's administrator for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), pushed for American seniors to "work one year longer" because he claimed it would benefit the economy.

Funny how they never think of raising taxes on the rich a little to help lower the deficit, oh, no. Their solution is always to stamp the boot a little harder on the faces of the poor, working and middle classes.

Sort of like how if you're a rich crimial, you can pay a large bribe make a 7-figure campaign contribution to Trump's various coffers and then you'll be popped out out the federal prison system like a champagne cork.

INS/ICE

INS, aka La Migra, operated for seventy years before it was broken up in 2003 as part of the creation of the DHS. Its enforcement arm became ICE.

I mention that because, for ninety years, INS/ICE agents didn't go around wearing masks like a bunch of gun thugs from a Mexican cartel or a neo-Nazi militia. They only adopted masks when Stephen Miller shifted ICE's mission from immigration enforcement to state terror. Besides the masks, ICE agents have been waving their guns around at every opportunity, like a bunch of badly trained mall cops.

On second thought, I apologize. It is probably a deep offense to mall cops everywhere to compare them to ICE agents.

American Defense Stocks Might Not be a Gold-Plated Investment

Norway is buying a South Korean precision-strike missile system.

In past years, the Norwegians likely would have bought HIMARS systems, but the Europeans are looking to reduce their dependence on American military tech because they don't trust us anymore to be reliable suppliers. That's for reasons that anyone with an IQ above freezing doesn't need to have explained to them.

MAGA Has Some of the Worst People on the Globe

Classes have been called off in the Columbia Heights school district on Feb. 2 due to what officials are calling a bomb threat, police said.

The threat was emailed to several schools in the district serving about 3,400 students in Columbia Heights, Hilltop and Fridley, said Columbia Heights Police Deputy Erik Johnston in a statement.

The closure comes as 5-year-old preschool student Liam Conejo Ramos and his father from Columbia Heights were released from an ICE detention center in Texas and returned to Minnesota over the weekend.

It really takes a great amount of despicability and inhumanity to call in bomb threats to a kid's school because one is a racist jackhole who hates the idea that the kid, all of five years old, was released from a Trump/Miller concentration camp. That's MAGA in a nutshell.

And, of course, ICE was there to terrorize the kids.

The judge's release order is blistering. It's only three pages long.

Piling These Up, Here

Another Kavanaugh Stop of a Brown Person

A woman who’s a U.S. citizen needed medical help Thursday, Jan. 29, after federal agents pulled her from her car after demanding to see her “papers,” one of the state’s largest unions said Saturday.
...
At around 11 a.m. Thursday, Maria was driving alone to take care of a rent payment and buy a cake for her grandson when she noticed she was being followed for several blocks by an unmarked vehicle that did not have a license plate, SEIU’s statement said.

Maria had been driving around northeast Salem, according to Latinos Unidos Siempre on social media.

The vehicle pulled in front of her and stopped, while another parked behind her. Three men and a woman exited the vehicles wearing vests saying “police,” and one “banged on her window, demanding that she show them “papers.” SEIU said.

“When Maria did not immediately respond, the agents shattered her car window, forcibly removed her from the vehicle and threw her to the ground, causing numerous injuries,” the statement said.

As she was on the ground, the agents dumped out her purse, found her U.S. passport and left the scene, according to SEIU.

That is a classic Kavanaugh Stop: Jerk up a nonwhite person, abuse thm a bit and then depart.

Meanwhile, ICE harassed a woman whose only offense was observing them. They jumped out of their rental SUV in a move that resembled a carjacking and then grabbed her, when she was only exercising her Constitutional rights. If you look at the video in the story, you will see that one of those pseudo-cops steps in front of her car, presumably to try and get justification to murder another American citizen.

To quote one of the commenters here:

When you recruit for brutality, and your pool of recruits are all the cops that are one step from being tossed out of their police force by a review board, and your push to increase your forces causes you to lower your standards and rush the pre employment investigation, can you expect any different outcome?

Add in telling your officers that they are unaccountable for their actions and letting them hide their faces and wear no identifying marks or numbers and this is what you get.
