America is rapidly becoming a dictatorship. Our founding fathers anticipated someone might one day be elected president who would not uphold democracy, and instead would seek to consolidate power for himself. Our Constitution gives Congress and Senate co-equal power to the Executive and Judiciary branches. You are not subservient to the President, YOU HAVE CO-EQUAL POWER.
DHS/ICE are terrorizing people in our country every day. Rep. Bergman undoubtedly takes his party's position that ONLY illegal immigrants are being arrested and deported. While I agree illegal immigrants, who are actually criminals, SHOULD be deported, most have NOT committed any serious crime. Many news accounts also show American CITIZENS being grabbed, thrown to the ground, and put in detention centers without due process. ICE acts like Hitler's Gestapo more and more every day. They act like an occupying army in our cities, including shooting a female Minneapolis protestor three times, killing her and then denying her immediate medical attention from a physician in the immediate proximity.
Our president is also exhibiting unbelievably bizarre behavior toward other nations. The most recent is threatening to annex Greenland (by force, if necessary!) and threatening our NATO allies with huge tariffs if they don’t acquiesce. He appears not to care that this will likely fracture our NATO alliance and destroy our reputation in other countries. In fact, other world leaders are already criticizing a Greenland annexation, seeking new trading partners, discussing selling off their US Treasury notes, and planning for war if we invade Greenland! This is insane!
Do your constitutional duty: Impeach and convict President Trump immediately!
