OUCH! 😳 (X & Text) Colbert: "Do not compare ICE or Border Patrol agents to the Nazis.

Stephen Colbert: “Do not compare ICE or Border Patrol agents to the Nazis. That’s an unfair comparison. The Nazis were willing to show their faces.”

I realize that the left in general and DUers in specific are anti-America idiots with the brain capacity of a flea's fart, but I’m sick and tired of the claims that the USA has become (or is as bad as) Nazi Germany. Making such claims shows a person either to be ignorant of what Nazi Germany was like OR to be intellectually dishonest. The very fact that people are able to openly and freely make such claims actually disproves the claim.

Oh, and if you're lurking maxrandb, the purpose of the above (so you can understand with you limited intellect) is to say that you are so stupid that calling you a raving idiot would be an insult to idiots because compared to you most idiots have the IQ of Einstein.

Here is a related bit of rampant stupidity masquerading as intelligent thought:

Did Stephen Colbert Really Just Downplay the Holocaust to Attack ICE?

The world observed International Holocaust Remembrance Day on January 27, marking the day the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp was liberated and honoring the six million Jews and others who were killed at the hands of the Nazi regime. It appears late-night host Stephen Colbert missed that solemn occasion, and instead chose to use his monologue to make light of the Holocaust.

Stephen Colbert: “Do not compare ICE or Border Patrol agents to the Nazis. That’s an unfair comparison. The Nazis were willing to show their faces.”

Wait a minute, I saw where he'd gotten a rib broken previously while being an insurgent obstructionist law breaker, but are you saying the broken tail light was a third, completely different, incident? If so, it's almost like that guy was a slower learner (or I guess learer) and/or was actively searching for what he got.

I can't say for sure, but the vague timeframe for the incident with his rib(s) ("around a week before" he was shot) and what Pretti claimed was done (holding him down with a knee) do not match the known date of the tail light incident, 1/13, nor with the relatively brief time Pretti was down after being tackled. So either Pretti's rib(s) claim includes lies, or the tail light and rib(s) were separate incidents.

Twin Cities Police Union Chief: These Deaths Are On Walz, Frey

https://hotair.com/ed-morrissey/2026/01/29/twin-cities-police-union-chief-these-deaths-are-on-walz-frey-n3811330

The New York Post ran this yesterday morning as an "exclusive." It's so exclusive that few if any media outlets bothered to note this accusation from St. Paul Police Federation president Mark Ross.

The issue isn't sanctuary city policy per se, Ross tells the Post. Local police don't need to conduct immigration raids, as Jacob Frey and Tim Walz have declared. However, both the governor and the mayor, as well as commanders in the police departments, have ordered these departments to provide no cooperation with ICE and Border Patrol, even just for crowd control – and that has proven to be a deadly choice:

Quote
“Since the Republican National Convention was held in St. Paul back in 2008, Minnesota law enforcement has undergone extensive training in mobile field force configurations and crowd management for major events. And because of that, I think we’re in the best position to deal with that,” Ross said.

“Unfortunately, our local politicians would not allow us to do that,” he added. ...

“Had we been allowed just a little bit of coordination –  not in terms of what ICE is doing, but if they say, ‘Hey, we need to go to this place to serve a warrant, we’re going to be out there a couple hours. We’re nervous that crowds are going to form and give us trouble. Can you come out and help?’ That’s something we can easily coordinate with a little bit of notice, and sometimes with hardly any notice, we can get out there quickly,” Ross said.

“I believe, had we been able to do that, that there would be no loss of life at this point,” he said.

Frankly, while I do not know the gooberment-police relationship details in Minneapolis, I still think this was overdue. Maybe the union guy tried to work out something behind the scenes,, but that police officers had been ordered not to do basic crowd control needed to be made public weeks ago. That's critical context for ICE/CBP operations and for what city gooberment has been doing.

1. The prior incidents, the attack on officers in which he destroyed the SUV tail light and an apparent attack on officers a few days later in which he claimed a rib got broken demonstrate that Alex Pretti* was an angry man with a proven record of violence.

2. The disarming happened AFTER Alex Pretti attacked the CBP officers, and the disarming and shooting were separated by hundredths of seconds, not separate actions or an "execution". Had Alex Pretti simply taken phone video and blown his whistle and not attacked the CBP officers he'd be blowing his whistle today.

* I'm still not "afraid" to say his or Renee Good's name, DU onlurkers.

We need a Federal HALO law.

"The Halo Law in Florida establishes a 25-foot buffer zone around first responders, such as police officers and firefighters, to protect them from harassment and interference while they perform their duties. Violating this law after receiving a warning can result in fines or jail time."
