    1. I know it, and Trump is ticking every box, starting with demonising the free press and nepotism.

    2. Yes we know in my town but the protesters are terrorising my city I want it stopped! Do what we must to keep our city from burning down you guys are all thugs

  1. I think these Secret Police were on there way to the Secret Policeman’s Ball but they got lost.
    Send them back to the White House where the real crimes are taking place every day.

  2. Citizens Of AMERICA Act Like The Great People Of LIBYA. Put Him Down The Whole World To See

  3. “I’m a war time President” “Sir those are your own citizens” “they’re looters, thugs” “those are mothers sir”

    1. @Celtic Whisper stop trolling you saw that video he gassed moms what if that was your mom trying to protect your right to protest?

    2. Once you dehumanize the citizenry it gives a green light to commit unspeakable acts of brutality against them.

    1. He won’t lose an election, there probably won’t be an election due to a full blown civil war for the next several years. Buckle up.

    2. Mcfishy First , “loves evil” is what MSNBC exhibits continuously, as it attempts to undermine all positive efforts & downplays positive accomplishments.

    3. He always finds someone weaker to victimize when he feels threatened. How come no one is stopping this tyranny??

  4. Chad Wolf: I cannot believe what you say, because I’ve seen what you do. Go back to the country–I mean the federal department–you came from.

    1. @M Murase : Chad Wolf – A political lobbyist without any background in the US Military or Law Enforcement but he’s a willing toady to Trump & Barr. They probably cannot get credible military generals, etc., anymore who will willingly sacrifice their name and honor after seeing what’s happened to their colleagues of previously untarnished reputations who were corrupted by Trump.

  5. With a name like Chad Wolf, Is it surprising that his goons are being compared with the Gestapo. All we need is the imperial storm trooper music.

    1. He probably got the job because of his name, oh, and importantly the fact that he knows nothing of real law.

    1. And the silence of the (lambs) holy men is deafening! Why aren’t they speaking up about the hate and horror coming their way? Is it because they support this tyrant and his racism? Must be.

    1. They came first for the Communists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist.
      Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew.
      Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist.
      Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn’t speak up because I was a Protestant.
      Then they came for me, and by that time no one was left to speak up.

      “First they came …” is the poetic form of a prose post-war confession first made in German in 1946 by the German Lutheran pastor Martin Niemöller. Source Wikipedia.

    2. @Matt Hasle How do I get a job doing that? I’m sure I have lots of opinions you’d disagree with and I like money.

    3. So tell us all, where are the concentration camps located? Besides, all four large wars in the 20th century, there was a Democrat in office. The Nazis also removed statues besides the Democrats expanded the power of surveillance and enforcement….see also Executive Order 13010.

  6. Dishonest? When your storm troopers hide their identity as to what branch of the federal law enforcement you represent? That’s dishonest! Any law enforcement that are hiding their identity should be fair game and hence should be shot onsite! How do we know your not just impersonating an officer to pull your dishonest behavior?

    1. @John Traylor They won’t come here. Where I am at the CITY police will NOT come here. There is a man that lives out here they are afraid of but the people don’t know about. I have no worries. The FEDS don’t like to come here either. They are tired of all the drugs and all that goes with it it. If they won’t come here, neither will ANTIFA.

    2. @Wizardof87 1987 ….or you could just lay down and accept your prospects under a Dictatorial fascist regime…
      Donnie’s picture on the dollar bill?

    3. charlidog2 The DA in Philadelphia says he will have these supposed Feds arrested if they kidnap anyone in his city.

  7. The impeached one wasn’t there when the states needed his help getting PPE, they were on their own so why is he trying so hard to run things now, if you would have done his job then maybe there wouldn’t be so much tension. He has to go.
    VOTE BLUE

    1. They are not “secret police” they are regular FED officers. Stop parroting the fake news, it makes you look like a hypocrite liar as they are.

    2. They came first for the Communists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist.
      Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew.
      Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist.
      Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn’t speak up because I was a Protestant.
      Then they came for me, and by that time no one was left to speak up.

      “First they came …” is the poetic form of a prose post-war confession first made in German in 1946 by the German Lutheran pastor Martin Niemöller. Source Wikipedia.

    3. @no name : They are Secret Police if they come with ‘no names,’ no formal identification of their law enforcement affiliation, attack and grab people and spirit them away in unmarked sedans. Earmarks of Private Armies employed by corrupt dictators in Banana Republics in 3rd World countries. Now employed under the directives of Trump & Barr using an inexperienced, expendable toady like Chad Wolf, ‘acting head’ of the DHS. And as Gen Honore stated, dishonoring the US Military Uniform by pretending to be one and duping the public into thinking that OUR MILITARY FORCES are being used against Civilians!!!

  8. I thought it was obvious—this is “I’m down in the polls” BS. Quite obvious.

    1. This is, “well if you won’t let me win the election, we’re not having one.” He’s basically declaring himself Fuhrer of the Fourth Reich and daring us to say otherwise.

  9. Offensive, hyperbolic and dishonest. He’s looking in a mirror. Prison cells await them all, please God.

    1. @Cassie maybe … but that doesn’t answer my question – which is legit.
      WHO is being referred to here?
      (seems oddly vague):

      “Offensive, hyperbolic and dishonest. He’s looking in a mirror. Prison cells await them all, please God.”

  10. “Police officers are not storm troopers, they are not Gestapo as some have described them”, well I hate to pop your bubble Herr Himmler, but if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, guess what? It’s probably a duck.

  11. You are becoming Venezuela, that’s how the ” Colectivos Chavistas” began.
    Paramilitary forces, next thing is supression of congress and elections.

  12. I remember this officer when he arrived in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. The picture of him yelling at those wayward soldiers to lower there weapons and reminded them that they were not in a war zone, and that these are our people not refugees from a foreign land and that they had just lost everything and the last thing they needed was their own military pointing a gun at them. He is my hero!
