Foreign-Born Member Of Congress Threatens Republicans With Prison When Democrats Regain Power
Brianna Lyman
Foreign-born Rep. Shri Thanedar openly threatened to prosecute his political enemies this week — a reminder of what Democrats plan to do if they get power back.
During a committee hearing Tuesday, Thanedar — struggling to speak English — threatened to prosecute Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Rodney Scott when President Donald Trump is out of office.
“You better hope you get pardoned because you will be held accountable for the absolute disregard of the law your agencies have shown over the past year,” Thanedar threatened.
“Your agencies have lost the trust of the American people, with millions taking to the streets to protect the illegal actions of your agencies. And that’s why I introduce a bill in the United States Congress to abolish ICE. ICE must be abolished,” he continued.
Putting aside the irony of a congressman accusing ICE and Border Patrol of “disregarding” the law while ignoring the millions of illegal aliens who have done exactly that, something far more disturbing is happening. Democrats are explicitly threatening to imprison political opponents for enforcing duly enacted law — resurrecting their 2024 playbook.
