The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Department of Homeland Security Secretary and renowned puppy killer Kristi Noem asked Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth by letter to have the military make civilian arrests in Los Angeles because republicans are insane thugs who only believe in states' rights when they agree with those rights.

The letter in questions requests the Pentagon to give "direction to DoD forces to either detain, just as they would at any federal facility guarded by military, lawbreakers under Title 18 until they can be arrested and processed by federal law enforcement, or arrest them." The official also asked for "drone surveillance support," as well as weapons and logistics assistance.

Can you say grossly escalatory and illegal? I knew you could.

Both the LA Times and AP have reported that ICE Agents started the violence in LA this past weekend but I'm guessing Noem doesn't intend for them to be arrested by the military.

Nope.

What we have here is a made-for-TV quasi-reality show choreographed especially for Dear Leader's Birthday Parade.
