The next time someone quotes one of the NeverTrump neo-cons, spare a thought that if it were up to them, the wonderful Iranian people will get as much consideration as the wonderful Iraqi people did, should the Iranian government fart in church.
It appears lately the Trump neo-cons are in lock step in thay regard.

@KevinB - I know enough to know that ‘detain’ versus ‘arrest’ can be pretty different down there compared to here. Can you clarify the significance of this if you have the time?Oh boy.

As President Donald Trump viciously attacked his perceived political foes, he whipped up boos from the gathered troops directed at California leaders, including Gov. Gavin Newsom.

Troops in Los Angeles can detain but not arrest individuals, military official says
So certain jurisdictions allow LEO’s to temporarily detain people.
Ok. I’ve come to understand that in some jurisdiction there’s “no takebacksies” once police tell someone they’re ‘arrested’. Here we can arrest someone if we have grounds, but freely release them if the situation changes; if I understand right, in some parts of the U.S. once someone is under arrest, there’s a lot more obligatory process that precludes release, so ‘detention’ is used much more in situations that would be an arrest here.
I don’t have to Miranda anyone being detained...
We better put pen to paper with the SK’s or we’ll be left holding the bag with no subs in 2035.
Yes, it’s “let’s prepare for an existential conflict with a rising and powerful rival by alienating the entire world against us”.
Well when the Administration is literally run by the Kremlin…
Yes. And apparently some people think we should be thanking Trump for all of this.
Almost all prominent neo-cons are bitterly opposed to Trump. Did you mean to write "NeverTrump"?
What happens when the people who want immigration law enforced and the people who do not are in direct opposition and a choice is required, there being no middle ground? (It is not possible to simultaneously enforce and not enforce a law.) Are those who favour enforcement more or less legitimately "the people" than those who do not; are those opposed to enforcement to the point of obstruction not already some kind of enemies of the state? Obstruction - rebellion - insurrection is a spectrum, but it's one spectrum of action against the state. The point of civil disobedience is that it's deliberately unlawful, and has consequences.
I wonder if there will be a big 'dear leader' type portrait at the upcoming big beautiful parade.Oh boy.
