They are demanding "show me your papers" to citizens, often chasing, arresting and jailing them for being brown, and turning the US into a police state.

Because they are Americans? Under the Fourth Amendment, police cannot demand ID from a pedestrian for no reason. Other constitution violations include 1st amendment (Rümeysa Öztürk), ICE memo allowing officers to enter homes without a judicial warrant (violation of 4th), denying due process (Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments), etc.","comments":[{"id":46800153,"user":"kreetx","time":1769627592,"time_ago":"3 hours ago","type":"comment","content":"

Doesn't matter. You can't suspend constitutional protections when they are inconvenient. And it isn't just violations of the constitution, it is also destroying our relationships with European allies, destroying the planet by ignoring climate change, destroying the environment, destroying our health, destroying American competitiveness by defunding research, destroying consumer protections, etc. And what you were asking, did you ask how bad it is, objectively?","comments":[],"comments_count":0,"level":5,"url":"item?id=46800800"}],"comments_count":1,"level":4,"url":"item?id=46800153"}],"comments_count":2,"level":3,"url":"item?id=46800028"}],"comments_count":3,"level":2,"url":"item?id=46799634"}],"comments_count":4,"level":1,"url":"item?id=46799456"}],"comments_count":5,"level":0,"url":"item?id=46798904"}],"comments_count":6,"url":"item?id=46798625"}
