MSNBC - Baseball coach fends off ICE agents looking to question little league baseball players



What would have happened to these kids if this coach wasn't there? I don't doubt that they would have been detained "for their own protection" or some other BS excuse.

He teared up thinking of the event and the cowardice of the bystanders.

Thanks for posting this. I tuned into Nicole Wallace late and missed the bulk of this. So I really appreciate you posting this.

This is absolutely sickening. ICE feel they have no compunction to follow the constitution and simply don’t care what the constitution says. This is a direct outgrowth of what’s going on with Stephen Miller setting the policy and Pam Bondi refusing to actually be an attorney general of the United States. They truly do not care.

Steven Miller wants them to hit this 3000 per day bogey and they are going after low hanging fruit. Rather than go after the criminals and the truly dangerous people (there are some) ice and ice leadership is just going to go after the people that they can get their hands on. In this case they’re going after adolescents. They were the right color and probably were speaking a variety of languages but mainly Spanish and so these thugs decided they’d go after them.

These people are cowards and thugs and criminals. They are the ones that need to be in alligator Alcatraz. The people that are saying that we need to deport all these other people are the ones that we need to exile Trump being chief among them. If anyone has shown that he is not fit to be an American citizen it is Trump. They should shackle Trump together with Stephen Miller and send them to Sudan where they can live in a storage container in a war zone.

This is making me so incredibly angry. I imagine I’m not the only one. I predict that we’re going to have outbreaks of terrorism in this country that are directed against the federal government and with good reason.

We are under attack. The federal government has essentially declared war on California and I bet that’s not the last state that’s going to come under that kind of pressure. Trump is attacking everything that is good and leaving only the bad.

God, I am so disgusted.
