Who is protecting the people of Minnesota from the immigration agents' violence? Who's protecting any of us? [View all]

...is there actually anyone in place anywhere today, any of the nation's other law enforcement agencies able to help Americans caught in the way of ICE and other immigration agents?

Who do Americans turn to for protection when we encounter these federal agents deploying chemical weapons and using other aggressive and violence; tactics which no police force is authorized to wantonly exert against civilians, as we've witnessed in Minnesota and elsewhere?

Trump's regime is firmly focused on covering their own asses for their agent's obviously authorized thuggery; not only unequivocally defending their bogus claim to be acting against some threat from immigrants; but have launched a military campaign against those very citizens they claim to be defending.

Trump's DOJ sycophants issued subpoenas for Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey claiming they're impeding law enforcement, ostensibly by doing what we all see them doing, questioning the actions of Trump and urging the people of his state to resist the illegal and abusive deployment of thousands of unchecked federal thugs into his state to try and intimidate the people out of openly resisting.

Moreover, Trump has made himself into the ultimate domestic threat to Americans. There's never been any overt attack on Americans by immigrants. That's just a lie republicans have frightened people in their country with for generations now to get themselves elected and keep themselves in power and authority.

The most dangerous threat to Americans is now this already initiated attack on citizens for do as little as observing their paid mercenary thugs who have been granted unaccountability to virtually anyone for violent behavior against virtually anyone in this country for virtually any reason they choose.

If Renee Good can get shot and killed by their federal agent for just sitting and watching them and accountability for that murderer immediately denied behind threats to the family of the victim (not to minimize the deployment of thousands more to the city at a rate of about an agent to 140 Minnesotans), then it is the federal government who threatens them the most, by far.

Couple that naked tyranny with Trump's threat to invoke insurrection act powers to foment even more military madness on American cities and towns, and it's clear that the most pernicious and present danger we ALL face in this country is a president openly thirsting to pummel Americans with the force of the military we support with the money the government takes from our labor.

He's even begun saying the quiet part out loud about not wanting to be accountable to the people in the next election. That's what he's keeping the troops in D.C in place for, deciding just today to extend his cynical deployment of part-time troops with real jobs back home supposedly deter crimes (other than his own) in Washington, relegated instead to cleaning up trash on the ground.

He's obviously going to try and interfere in the election like any tin-pot dictator would, like countless numbers around the world have done; ironically, most often met with strong resistance from the U.S. in the past; any democratic impulse to defend them today now a victim of Trump's megalomaniac buffoonery.

Who is there to defend and protect Americans against these assaults on our democracy and person?

None but ourselves, of course. Most of us have long relied on our government as a backdrop to our own efforts to keep ourselves safe; even from outside threats, as we vote to put in place people who will defend those in our political system of government.

Many today are fathoming the extent of their own individual power to defend themselves against the very institutions they once regarded as the structure they built their own responsibility to society upon. Now it's become a self-interested clique of arrogant pigs who can't stop abusing people because we won't stop resisting.

It's makes sense to me that this draft dodger who shows open contempt for the military troops, over and over, has no sense of who he's supposed to be defending with all of those weapons we pay for.

Trump believes he's the United States and that the overarching priority of his office is to protect and defend himself. Who is out there to protect and defend us?
