LMAO. Super soldier democratic elected officials, defeating heavily militarized police units using unarmed combat. I believe it!
As usual, Republicans accuse Democrats of being much cooler than they really are.
Even better when you look at the accused!
So basically two reps pushing 40, and an 80 year old woman "punched" and "body-slammed" these ICE agents. Menendez is a lawyer, and the two women have no fighting background either yet it sounds like they "handled" these agents with ease according to Noem.
In this Politico article it sounds like nobody had any issues until they started arresting the Newark Mayor.

I love that Bernie meme lol
Blatant lies like this need to be considered perjury even when outside the Courtroom.
Isn't it called slander when it's televised? She basically called multiple Democrat politicians felons.
You're not a felon until after you're convicted. Until then you're just a sparkling nogoodnik.
(Please pardon if the joke falls flat, I'm in a queer mood.)
Wasn't one of them like in their 70s? I really wanna know their routine if they can casually body slam ICE goons without crumbling into a mess of broken bones.
No. She's 80.
Lotta those ICE goons appeared to be Gravy Seals contractors
Schrodinger's agent. Both weak enough to be body slammed by politicians and tough enough to handle dangerous "illegals".
And she's just as soulless as well, literally a puppy killer. There really is nothing behind those empty, crazy eyes but malice.
Seriously, she's got serious mental issues. Next time you see a dog being "bad" like barking at you or whatever. Imagine shooting it. Bet there's no way you could. I know I couldn't and if I knew anyone that did, I'd keep a wide berth from them because they ain't right in the head.
I mean, what's worst is it's an attempt to come off as making "tough" country decisions.
Like, I get it, if you're on a rural farm and your dog is literally attacking people and is dangerous to animals and people, that might be a reason to put it down. However, even in rural areas there are vets who can do it in a humane way. The world of Old Yeller is a world away and there are simply better and more humane solutions. Some animals can be extremely dangerous to those around them, if they've been mistreated while being raised. However, that's just it, it speaks badly to the person who raised them, and in Noem's case, the dog just misbehaved, it wasn't outright dangerous. So she just comes off as a complete psychopath looking for a reason to kill a dog, not a simple country farmer doing something they didn't necessarily want to do but felt the need to do to keep their livestock and family safe from a dangerous dog.
This wasn't written for us though, my right wing fil used to brag about doing this shit for 3 reasons
So she brags about this to seem more "authentic" country to magats, and they eat it up.
Yep. It ain't right, nor was it ever.
ICE Barbie, DOJ Barbie, and Dumb Communication Barbie is the worst lineup of Barbies ever. Then to top it all off Hegseth is Ken.
I prefer Canine Murderer Barbie, myself. Maybe Gravel Pit Executioner Barbie.
I've just been calling her Cruella.
As another poster said, Puppy Killer Barbie. I think that has a little more emotional punch.
She puts on makeup with a putty knife
And the nation stands idly by as these fascists take more and more ground.
Be the change you want to see in the world
I take issue with this comment, specifically just one part. You are sullying the good name of whores worldwide.
Puppy Killer doesn't deserve to lick the shit covered boots of whores, let alone be compared to them.
Oh oh. Be careful she doesn't send you to El Salvador or worse yet, the gravel pit.
So is referring to a woman as "Barbie" not sexist if she works for Trump, or is it still sexist but it's ok to be sexist towards women who work for Trump?
(I'd ban Daily Beast links if I were in charge.)
I think the whole 'Barbie' thing is a reference to how the women in Trump's orbit all have the same over-manufactured aesthetic.
Is Barbie inherently sexist? I think here it's implying that she's just there to be the good-looking face of corruption. She is being used as a toy. Is calling out the sexism by referring to her as ICE Barbie sexist, or is using her as an ICE Barbie sexist?
Edit: I think the answer can be and is both. I don't support the use of ad hominem attacks. It just makes your argument easier to dismiss and is completely unnecessary when you have so many easy legitimate arguments to be made against this administration. However, I do think the bigger issue is the administration using her compared to the crass comment.
Yes, it's an obvious reference to her looks. Lefty internet is not immune to sexism. It's easy to spot every time MTG or Lauren Bobert make the news. In 2016 sexism in some left spaces wasn't just allowed, it was enforced.
She was hired for her looks
Gotta admit, when she was governor of one of the Dakotas, I thought she was cute. Pretty sure a lot of the conservatives that voted for her thought the same thing.
Yeah, it is an obvious reference to the fact she was hired for her looks. Is the sexism the comment or the reason she was put in the position she is in?
Is "bimbo" better? It fits..
Whore, Bitch, Slut, Cunt, Battle axe, Harpy, Cumbucket
Calling someone "Barbie" is not sexist at all as long as the person being called it is actually made of plastic, such as in this case.
I just assumed it was a reference to Klaus Barbie. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klaus_Barbie?wprov=sfla1
Well it's a GOOD THING the Democrats showed us POLITICIANS are Above The Law during Biden's Term!
Weird capitalizations and statement in general. Bot, I will assume.
