Acting Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security Chad Wolf spun his unidentified federal agents’ random detainment of nonviolent anti-police brutality protesters in Portland, Oregon as some kind of pre-crime measure on Tuesday night.
“You need to hold individuals accountable," the Trump administration official said.
Except, apparently, the sociopath in the White House.
What the heck is “proactive arrest” and is it even legal? Said the DHS officer, “Hey I think you are going to speed through that school zone. I am arresting you.”
‘Because local leaders aren’t actively engaged in unconstitutional efforts to silence the aggrieved we’ve taken it upon ourselves to do so’, the fascist flunky continued. ‘Long Live the Homeland of the Free!’
This cross-eyed incompetent cosplaying motherfucker is going to find himself sued, or himself arrested for conspiracy to commit kidnapping, before this is all over.
Good article on Trump’s provocation in Portland. It explains his possible motives:
What is this, fucking Minority Report? Goddamned pieces of shit.
I wonder if Chad recognizes that his interview is stepping on tRump’s narrative of a city out of control? Proactively arresting people to hold them accountable for what? A few days ago Chad said he sent in agents because of graffiti sprayed on the federal courthouse. So why the need to scoop people up in unmarked vehicles blocks away? Chad is also making the local police union look bad as well by saying they aren’t cooperating. Hell, no local, county or state agency is cooperating with this.
tRump thrives in the type of chaos Republicans always accused Obama of trying to commit.
His words say it all. Proactively. Go to court and shut him down. The actions are unconstitutional.
These are the guys that called Obama a tyrant. These are the guys that claim to love the Constitution…with the exemption of the 4th Amendment I guess. No way this is American. Probably not legal or Constitutional but damn sure not American.
But no proactive measures against a deadly virus. Trump is trying desperately to win back white suburban women, and I for one am worried that he might succeed. People in Chicago are going to fight back, which of course is exactly what he wants.
Be proud of it
Someone’s to dumb for their britches
Proactive arrest is not a thing, Chad. Our legal system may be old-fashioned but you really have to at least try to do a crime first.
Proactively gas these women dressed in yellow, the color of incipient crime.
Looking forward to the establishment of a new federal agency: Department of Pre-Crime.

This was better as a movie and even the movie was just OK.
Oh wow, does he know he’ll be in jail within the next two years?
