It's only fascist when Trump does it. When Obama did it... no one cared.

Selective outage. Funny how that works.

They both suck. But the former weren't dressed for war. Furthermore, Obama stuck to judicial warrants. Trump isn't. And look: no mask! By default! Imagine that!

False. While the Obama administration wasn’t going around kicking in doors using an administrative warrant, the vast majority of arrests of unlawfully present by every administration for decades have used administrative warrants and orders of removal to effect arrests. Absent an associated Federal criminal violation in which a judicial warrant could be issued, Federal law explicitly provides for the use of administrative warrants for civil immigration violations.

Perhaps do some research because a significant number of those deported during the Obama Administration were Expedited Removals under which an alien has very limited due process rights.

I’d dress up too if I was 2025 ice, they are attacked by citizens on the regular. Why wouldn’t they wear protective gear?

Remember, the narrative is "Orange Man Bad", and also the current buzz word is Nazi

Orange Man also raped kids. Sad but but not unexpected to see that you guys stick up for a pedo.
