Democratic Congressman to immigration officials: “When the worm turns you will not be safe.”
They’re coming for you next: An Arizona Democratic congressman yesterday threatened immigration officials for any work they might do to enforce the immigration laws passed by Congress.
“If you are a US government official and you are deporting Americans be warned,” the tweet read. “When the worm turns you will not be safe because you were just following orders. You do not have to take part in illegal acts ordered by this President’s administration.”
Not surprising, this was done on that sewer of brainlessness called Twitter.
First of all, no Americans have been deported. The Trump administration has simply been doing exactly the same thing that both the previous Bush and Obama administration had done, demand a verification that certain individuals near the Mexican border are really American citizens before issuing a passport, as per the law.
I repeat, they’re coming for you next. Comments like this only reveal what these fascists really want to do, destroy whoever might stand in the way of their obtaining of power.
Readers!
Every February I run a fund-raising drive during my birthday month. This year I celebrate my 72nd birthday, and hope and plan to continue writing and posting on Behind the Black for as long as I am able.
I hope my readers will support this effort. As I did in my November fund-raising drive, I am offering autographed copies of my books for large donations. Donate $250 and you can have a choice of the hardback of either Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8 or Conscious Choice: The origins of slavery in America and why it matters today and for our future in outer space. Donate $200 and you can get an autographed paperback copy of either. IMPORTANT! If you donate enough to get a book, please email me separately to tell me which book you want and the address to mail it to.
Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. My analysis of space, politics, and culture, taken from the perspective of an historian, is almost always on the money and ahead of the game. For example, in 2020 I correctly predicted that the COVID panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Every one of those 2020 conclusions has turned out right.
Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.
You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:
1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.
2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.
3. A Paypal Donation or subscription:
4. Donate by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman and mailed to

Hitler: The Rise of Evil
excerpt: “the wheels of history have turned…”
https://youtu.be/B7Odc_rtn68?t=6009
Never threaten men with guns
How can the law abiding citizens conquer the evil that reign power ? By voting ?
Took a look at the Representative’s Twitter account. Not getting a lot of support from followers. There’s a few True Believers, but most aren’t real happy. I suppose even a Marine can be an idiot. I’d like for Gallego or any of his fellow travelers to produce one US citizen that’s been deported. One. The fact is that a US citizen cannot be deported from the US. People in the process of naturalization (aka ‘not citizens’) can be.
This is consistent with Progressive ‘argument’: make something up, shout real loud, and accuse those who disagree or demand, you know, proof, of some ‘-ism’. It’s real old, and people are getting fed up with it.
I worry about the reaction against this politician.
I worry that too many people are using the terms Tyrant and Fascist who are not fully aware of what these things REALLY are.
Most of all. TRULY MOST OF ALL. I worry that too many of those who use words like Tyrant and Fascist are blithely unaware of the ILLUSTRATION that goes with the phrase “Sic Semper Tyranis!”
Well look at the Virginia State Flag people.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_and_seal_of_Virginia#/media/File:Flag_of_Virginia.svg
Unless YOU are prepared to be that soldier with the spear, you have NO business crying about TYRANTS and FASCISTS! I am serious! If you are NOT promoting VIOLENT action by The General Militia of the various states to carry out the image on that flag, Ya’ll need to just shut up about it before you inspire someone who feels no such constraint!
Self Censorship is one thing. DISCRETION IS SOMETHING ELSE. DO YOU KNOW THE DIFFERENCE?
For the love of God, stop before some poor POS politician winds up hanging from a damned lamp post and we all WIND UP PAYING THE DEVIL’S DUE!
“I worry about the reaction against this politician.”
This empowered politician promotes and even threatens violence against other empowered politicians and government employees. He and people like him are the problem, and for the most part they are mostly the people who occupy the Democrat and Left leaning of the political spectrum.
And if we are to learn from the past as these individuals continue to lose power, as I expect in the coming elections under the leadership of Trump, they will become even more deranged and desperate.
The only solution? Keeping winning at the ballot box, there is no other choice.
Is this guy promoting violence against law enforcement officers?
A politician no less.
Why does he not use his chosen position to just change the law instead of trying to intimidate law enforcement into not upholding the laws.
Thats right he has no ……….. so he is afraid of losing his own job.

Those are the rules. Break them and much of your work will vanish.
