CNNs Dana Bash on Sunday confronted Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) with viral clips of ICE agents using strong-arm tactics to subdue protesters over the last week. I want to ask you about a flood of videos that were all seeing on social media showing immigration officers across the U.S. using pretty aggressive tactics, Bash began, while interviewing Jordan on CNNs State of the Union.
There was one from Friday showing agents pinning a Chicago TV station employee to the ground. She was later released without charges. Another shows ICE agents shooting an unarmed pastor in the head with pepper balls. There were countless more, showing agents tackling people, pulling them from cars, shoving journalists, detaining U.S. Citizens, questioning their citizenship. The CNN host wanted to know if this bothered Jordan.
BASH: Do you have any concerns? As you see all of this, about how ICE and other immigration agencies are conducting themselves?
JORDAN: Look, I dont know the specifics of those those examples you gave. What I do know is these ICE agents are under tremendous pressure I think theyre doing a good job. By and large, I dont know the specifics of the examples.
BASH: Are you going to look into it?
JORDAN: Well, were going to look into the whole situation where you have these mayors who are
BASH: No, are you going to look into the way that ICE is conducting itself.

Gymsuit is so sanctimonious, sacrilegious, and craven.

(17,490 posts)but I don't think the god most Americans worship is Jordan's god. Otherwise, would he be saying that attacking innocent Americans was the Lord's work? That's pretty disgusting, even for Jim Jordan.

(7,153 posts)That would explain his failure to acknowledge Jesus of the New Testament as lord. I guess it would also explain some of the weird things he did at his old job as well as his starve the hungry stances in his current job.

When Jesus presented his teachings, which went on to be called the New Testament, he said that it replaced the Old Testament. When I learned that, I thought it meant that humans had earned love and kindness. But too many people prefer the vengeance of the Old Testament, even if the father, son and holy ghost want us to stop being cruel. It is is easy for the sadists in the world to target the vulnerable, the weak, beloved of the strong, like their children, to cause fear and compliance. Not many of us want to be Kobayashi (Usual Suspects)
