BREAKING: Tennessee Congressman calls for Stephen Miller to be TRIED AND CONVICTED!

In a blunt interview with MeidasTouch, Democratic Rep. Steve Cohen of Tennessee didn’t mince words when asked about Stephen Miller’s fate after Trump’s presidency. Criminal liability? Cohen said he hopes someone will eventually “put together the essential elements of a crime” and see Miller “tried and convicted.”

That’s not casual talk. That’s a sitting member of Congress openly questioning whether one of Trump’s closest architects of cruelty crossed legal lines that history won’t forgive.

And Cohen didn’t stop there.

Turning to ICE, Cohen described an agency he says has spun wildly out of control — “a menace to American society and our justice and our values.” He blamed ICE operations for deaths, called out a lack of supervision and training, and delivered a devastating reversal of Trump regime talking points.

“They said they were going to get the worst of the worst,” Cohen said. “They did. Just not the immigrants. The people they hired.”

Ouch.

As Trump once again threatens to invoke the Insurrection Act, Cohen warned Americans to understand exactly what’s at stake: the collapse of the long-standing firewall between civilian life and military power.

Protesting isn’t a crime, Cohen emphasized. It’s a First Amendment right. Sending soldiers into American cities to suppress civil dissent isn’t “law and order” — it’s authoritarianism.

And Cohen made clear this isn’t paranoia. He’s feared this moment for years.

He raised the chilling possibility that Trump’s obsession with militarized control could extend beyond protests — even into future elections. The idea of troops in U.S. cities, Cohen warned, is a dangerous step toward something America has always sworn it would never become.

This is the throughline of the Trump era: demonize immigrants, weaponize federal agencies, normalize violence, and dare the country to stop it. Steve Cohen just said the quiet part out loud — history is watching, and some of Trump’s most loyal enforcers may not outrun accountability forever.

The federal investigation into the shooting by an ICE officer has focused in on Good’s wife, including whether she may have impeded a federal officer moments before he shot, sources say.

WASHINGTON — Federal officials are investigating the widow of Renee Nicole Good to determine whether she may have impeded a federal officer moments before he shot and killed her wife in Minneapolis, according to two people familiar with the investigation who spoke to NBC News.

The federal investigation into the shooting by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer Jonathan Ross is focusing more on Becca Good, including what officials said were her possible ties to activist groups, and less on Ross’ actions when he fired into Renee Good’s vehicle during an immigration operation last week, the people said.

The fatal encounter has touched off protests in Minneapolis and calls for accountability for immigration officers, whose tactics have resulted in at least 10 other shootings since September.

Antonio Romanucci, Becca Good’s lawyer, said in a statement Saturday that “there has been no contact from the FBI or federal officials indicating Becca Good is the subject of an investigation.”

Let me get this straight.

ICE agent Jonathan Ross shot and killed Becca Good’s wife.

And now Trump’s evil administration wants to rub salt in the wound by investigating Becca.

Not only is ICE unwilling to accept responsibility for the shooting and death, they now want to blame the widow as well as the victim!

One can only conclude for Trump’s fascist administration:

“Conservatives” used to care about debt. When you combine all the tax cuts to the rich and corporations in the BBB, plus ICE, tariffs, invasions, Trump has added $2.5T debt in only 1 year. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/national-debt-already-killing-american-080000874.html http://news.usaunify.org/TQQwmp
