    How so? Masked men grabbed Rumeysa Ozturk off the street, caught on camera and even questioned by passers by. I haven’t seen their identites released, and I don’t see how it will happen unless the federal government wants it to happen.

      The video of Rumeysa being disappeared is so chilling. The passers by asking why they are covering their faces. They say they are police, but they are not wearing uniforms. It’s hard to hear in the video for me, but they’re just wrangling her like an animal. Taking her bag off of her back while she is terrified and turning in circles. Where is due process for anything? (This question is rhetorical. Sad that constitutional enforcement is a rhetorical point now.)

      You’re speaking of the now.

      I’m speaking about after this regime falls, and it’s time to to account for the crimes against humanity.

        Then they’ll still need border guards, soldiers, police, judges. The “good German soldier” myth was created because if every Nazi were to be prosecuted, the nation would be paralysed.

        That’s so bold of you to assume they’re making the high school bullies do their own paperwork.

        We couldn’t even get them to fill out a single page card for the national crime database.

          They will be found through their record of employment.

          Most of their agents are too stupid to understand that they’ll need to go into hiding when this regime falls.

          Take the opportunity now to get their names and faces, so that it’s harder for them to slither away later.

        They can just scrub everything before they lose power. Remind me what happened with the phones of the Secret Service when they were investigating Trump?

        They are using Signal as we’ve seen with Leaky Pete. Signal deletes all the info automatically after some time. Since it’s an end to end encrypted messaging app nobody can recover those messages. Not even Signal themselves. Who’s to say they aren’t using in other instances as well.

        And finally, Trump can pardon the lot of them and they will never see justice.

          They are using Signal

          I just had a thought: are the Signal people MAGA? I don’t think these paranoid criminals would be using something outside of their control if they weren’t certain wouldn’t be compromised. I also don’t think they’re competent enough to self-host and distribute up-to-date app binaries to everyone on the team.

          …and if Signal is supporting of MAGA, doesn’t that mean they’re a risk for anyone critical of them? Even if the app is end-to-end encrypted, anyone just downloading the app from an appstore is one automatic update away from being compromised.

      At the same time though, now that things like that are already out in the open it’s going to be a lot harder. I’ve already seen videos of people yelling at cops that are harassing and questioning alleged immigrants.
