On this day in history, Jan. 2, 1920, thousands detained by DOJ in nationwide 'Palmer Raids'

The Department of Justice unleashed a shocking and often violent unconstitutional nationwide dragnet — detaining as many as 10,000 people — on this day in history, Jan. 2, 1920.
Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer, appointed to the office 10 months earlier by President Woodrow Wilson, led the sweep against suspected communists and anarchists, as well as their sympathizers.
The action was soon dubbed the Palmer Raids.

This will have to happen again, someday.

If... the American people ever wish to be free of the leftists and The Party.

Otherwise... The Party will win.
