What has Trump done now?

[red750]

Donald Trump removes the US from 66 international organisations - here's the full list:

Fortunately, some lower level judges in the U.S. system (mostly State judges, it appears) have been kicking Trumps legal appointments out.

 

In several cases now, Trump's legal appointees (always chosen by him to prosecute his lawsuits), who have been appointed only because they're Trump loyalists, rather than being appointed on the basis of their legal abilities, and through the normal appointing system - are being rejected as illegally-appointed, and therefore have no power to prosecute cases.

 

So there's still some hope for the U.S. - but it lies in the States systems, not the Federal systems. All these Trump legal appointees were appointed without Senate confirmation, which is regarded as necessary by the vast majority of the legal fraternity.

Meanwhile, an ICE agent shot and killed an unarmed woman in a car who was just trying to get away from the situation (she wasn't an immigrant as far as I know).

The FBI, whose head Kash Patel is another unqualified Trump appointee, have taken over the investigation and not allowed local law enforcement anywhere near it.

Meanwhile the administration are saying shit like "she was a domestic terrorist trying to kill the ICE agent with her car" despite plenty of mobile phone coverage clearly showing differently.

ICE are the new Brown shirts. And the shit in the oval Office is Hitler.

This sad event is proof of the new faschist usa.

 

Those ICE 'agents' are heavily armed, are masked (unidentifiable), uncontrolled, and know that they are above the law.

 

Sounds like the infamous brownshirts.

 

Each step that usa takes destabilises the world destroys trust in their country.

In Australia, there's been dozens of people shot and killed by police. There was one just the other day.

 

Man armed with screwdriver, glass shards, and spray can, shot dead by police ...

There's plenty of masked ICE thugs being videoed, beating the crap out of anyone who they select as "the enemy". Talk about 1934 Germany all over again. The ICE operatives are judge, jury and executioner all rolled into one - and J.D. Vance claims they have "absolute immunity" (from prosecution). At least some people are identifying the ICE murderers and calling for them to face punishment.

I see reports that the trump administration has prevented state and county law enforcement and courts from dealing with investigating the case. Witholding evidence. Its for FBI only.

And trump has already told everyone it was clearly self defence by the goon.
