Is America Authoritarian Now?

Have we reached the stage of autocratic government where whether you get prosecuted or not depends on whether you make youself a threat to the regime or not? I wouldn't be shocked if this Congressman has done something illegal, but without having seen anything yet, it's curious that he is a critic of the regime.

ZH: FBI Raids Home, Campaign Office Of Democrat Biden Critic Rep. Henry Cuellar

The FBI on Wednesday raided the home and campaign office of Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX), a frequent critic of President Joe Biden.

According to the Texas Tribune, FBI spokesperson Rosanne Hughes said authorities were "conducting court-authorized law enforcement activity," and had appeared to seize evidence from the Democratic lawmaker's home.

In a statement, Cuellar's office told the Tribune: "Congressman Cuellar will fully cooperate in any investigation. He is committed to ensuring that justice and the law are upheld."

Agents spent what appeared to be several hours at Cuellar's home according to Texas reporter Valerie Gonzalez, who tweeted that agents had "loaded large bags, plastic bins, and a computer into a federal vehicle."

People ask why the Germans went along with the Nazis. It's going on right now in America. The President is using the FBI as his personal enforcement division. Nobody seems to care.
