    1. Basically every ICE agent is committing crimes in the field.

      They hide their identity to avoid prosecution.

      As they should. The get out of jail free cards that prosecutors hand out to law enforcement is absurd. They aren’t prosecuted criminally, immunity protects them civily, and it only emboldened them.

      Prosecute. Remove their immunity. Sue.

      Alternate title: „Democrats says they will hold accountable troops who commit crimes at Trump’s direction“.

      What do other countries do with their terror squads when they claw the government back from a fascist dictatorship? It doesn’t seem like probation or a fine will be enough to discourage the fascists from doing this all over again.

      Seems like there should be a more permanent solution to send a message to these folks that we’re sick of their crap. Some sort of trial with serious consequences.

      Also make clear that everyone will be watching, keeping notes, and remembering who broke their oaths. And of course, learn from the weak points and reinforce it when the time comes again.

      SCOTUS will nullify the charges by legitimizing the Nazi defense that „I was only following orders“.

    7. That’s gonna put a huge backlog on the courts if they follow through with it, because following the order to deploy is itself a criminal act. It’s a decent step, too, and long past time to do.

      Oh man, Democrats have such a good track record of not rolling over for authoritarians, I’m sure this isn’t a completely empty threat!

      Strip them of their rank and benefits. Let them have fun applying in this job market. 

    10. This is the sort of stand we need to see from State elected officials. Stand up to defend your State’s residents against Trump’s threats to our liberty or make way for those who will.

    11. How is this even a question? It shouldn’t be a threat. It should be the expected outcome.

      Both now and in the future.

      I want to see Democrats promising special trials to identify all ICE and military members who committed civil rights violations against those in America, citizens or otherwise.

      Those following illegal orders need to be put behind bars.

      We established “just following orders” didn’t work for German Nazis, so makes sense it would apply to MAGA Nazis as well.

      National Guard units brought in to your state by order of a governor from another state is invading your state. If they are not under the direction of your elected governor than they are illegal.

    15. Constant_Affect7774 on

      The shit will really and truly hit the fan if any one of the national guard ever shoots at someone, even if they being harassed and threatened themselves. The entire country will go ballistic (no pun intended).

      They work for the *people*, our tax dollars pay for all this shit. If they’re committing crimes, they should be fucking arrested and prosecuted.

    17. mrbigglessworth on

      Enforced by a republican controlled corrupt and biased DOJ? How is that gonna work ?

    18. Raspberries-Are-Evil on

      They better be taking all the names right now so there can be a Nuremberg style reckoning.

    19. AltoidStrong on

      „Just following orders“ – is NOT a defense for committing a crime.

      It’ll be great to see Nazis lose again, hopefully before it becomes a war again.

    20. What!?!? Charges for committing crimes!?! Let’s not brag about doing the bare minimum

    21. ChinookKing on

      „We were just following orders..“ aint gonna work for these pieces of trash.

    22. floyd_underpants on

      Just Following Orders didn’t work out for the last batch of yahoos. No reason it should hold water for troops, ICE, or anyone else implementing these brazenly illegal and inhumane orders. You have a choice. Telling yourself you don’t is a lie.

    23. Ok_Flatworm_3855 on

      Yeah I think it’s really important that we define „troops“. This headline very much implies military and let’s not lump these mass hire federal employees with folks that have actually made the choice to serve. Ice agent job postings are all over my area. They are paying these punks the same as a fast food job to terrorize people all in the name of border security. Our founding fathers had a lot to say on this exact subject
