This is just objectively, obviously true, and any Republican official or conservative pundit who disagrees is lying to you.

It’s tempting to laugh at this because it’s all so buffoonishly incompetent. But we shouldn’t be numb to what this means: Trump is directing the head of DOJ to prosecute his political enemies via his janky social media property’s DM’s. This alone would end a regular presidency.
The Journal reports that it was, indeed, an errant DM that Trump posted to Bondi, demanding the Comey indictment

Pope Leo teared up today as he heard the stories of migrants being abused by the Trump Administration. He made a pledge to them to stand up against Trump’s raids: “The Church cannot stay silent before injustice. You stand with me. And I stand with you.”

That's a lot of words to admit that you shot an unarmed pastor in the head with a pepper ball
This footage is from almost a month ago. What this clipped video doesn’t show is that these agitators were blocking an ICE vehicle from leaving the federal facility—impeding operations. Over and over again, law enforcement ordered these agitators to move off of federal property

Why the hell are these guys shooting pepper balls at Friggin presbyterian pastors?
The video of this incident is just as bad as it sounds. The priest is standing there, not doing anything remotely illegal, and without warning a masked DHS agent on the roof shoots him in the top of his head with a pepper ball.

Gonna be thinking about this lede for a minute.
NEW: I spoke to clergy and faith leaders who've joined protests at the Chicago-area ICE facility. Three say they've been shot w/pepper balls, sometimes while praying. All say ICE is also violating their religious freedom, and one is arguing it in court.

This is out of hand. These agents are there to cause trouble and violence, not to keep people safe. These are the scenes that play out in war torn, destitute countries - not America.
A federal agent points a weapon at a woman who was recording them. Jess, a U.S. citizen and member of a neighborhood patrol team that documents and shares ICE activity across the city, was filming when the incident occurred earlier today in the Berwyn area.
