This is old news from a decade ago, before the US public was aware how the police had long been fabricating probable cause (and gunning down Americans by the hundreds) and SCOTUS had been carving out exceptions to the fourth and fifth amendments to the Constitution of the United States.
Then Trump won in 2016 and we saw what it looked like under mask-off tyranny. And now we're one election away from one-party autocracy.
The police state is here. It always was. ππ¨βππ§βππ«
They've been doing that shit since the country was founded. The fourth and fifth amendments only exist if you're a rich person and the cops need an excuse not to investigate you.
