    Federal agents: “No.”

    Your move, Walz. Your constituents are being murdered in the street. Are you going to grow a pair and actually do something? Or are you just gonna keep talking like a worthless fucking politician?

      Yeah, Walz, why aren’t you personally removing armed state military from the streets? Walz, why didn’t you start a revolution yet, Walz? Too much of a pussy, Walz? I almost stood up from my sofa, that’s how I am angry at you, Walz.

        He most likely actually is involved in some kind of dirty dealing. Probably nothing like what the conservatives are screaming about, likely more to do with some improper donations or dealings with China, the kind of boring, low-level violation that gets liberals so twisted up that they fold at the slightest pressure.

        Meanwhile the GOP will openly fund a candidate with like, a mountain of stolen Aztek gold and have sacks of Russian money parachute onto their convention stage with a line of chained sex slaves behind them and they’ll shrug and go “whoopsie!” and the media cycle will move on with sports and weather.

      I nodded along with this comment, and then got thinking about the nation-state-military caliber funding that ICE was handed recently.

      And, after a bit of mental breadth-first search of where that train of thought could have led, I was left with a frown thinking “this could get so much more bloody so quickly.”
