    The Constitution only has meaning because you all say it has meaning. All of its enforcement comes down to the Executive branch. Congress doesn’t have enforcers, the Judiciary doesn’t have enforcers. Systematically, all of the people in the Executive branch that would stop this are being forced out. The people in power have decided the Constitution has no meaning, and it’s too late to stop them. Killing some ICE agents is what they want so they have the justification to declare martial law and subjugate the entire country by force.

      They probably do want to push the populace over the edge using ICE. However, that is an error in judgement. The mistake they are making is assuming many people are not already over the edge.

      They are looking and hoping for the people that will go batshit crazy and run out into the streets screaming “Rebellion! Riot!”. These are not the people they are getting. My educated guess assumption in theory is that MAGA has created a great deal of dusgruntled legal gun owners patiently waiting for a situation that presents an opportunity.
