Republicans in the US Senate indicated Sunday that they planned to move ahead this week with government funding legislation that includes $10 billion for Immigration and Customs Enforcement after a federal agent gunned down intensive-care nurse Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, a killing captured on video from multiple angles.

“My support for funding ICE remains the same,” declared Sen. Pete Ricketts (R-Neb.), a sentiment echoed by other GOP lawmakers ahead of votes on a package of six government appropriations bills approved by the US House last week.

“We’re not defunding ICE,” said Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) after the horrific shooting of Pretti. “Live with it.”

    So when do we start to expose the pedo-kompromat that someone somewhere is likely holding on these weirdos?

    Unless all of them are truly, really, really, really that evil?

    Which would make them evil in both scenarios, that’s not better… Yuck

      The justice department has a lot of the childfucking kompromat, if not the videos Israeli intelligence made. One wonders about the cia though presumably they were in on it. By action or inaction. Maybe they were compromised first to allow the bulk honeypot, but they could even have copies of the originals too, somewhere.

      Russia claims to have some too according to medvedickhead last summer.

      Justice stuff is going to be really well guarded, the incendenary dtuff probably filed under random subjects so court orders, prying eyes could not find it, an old trick.

      If only a patriot could leak what justice has, unlikely though given the overwhelming pressure to keep it hidden.
