The UK has been doing that since '01 but only under the so-called “terrorism” act. Essentially the police can arrest you under no reasonable grounds, keep you detained indefinitely and you lose your right to private legal counsel (you’re not allowed to speak to your solicitor/lawyer in private) and your right to silence, if you refuse to answer ANY questions you’ll automatically be charged with TERRORISM and be branded a terrorist from then on, and you legally have to unlock any personal devices on your person under the exact same threat, refusal will be met with a terrorism charge.

It’s literally almost exclusively used in a politically motivated manner and against political dissidents mostly at border checks. It was used against Palestine Action protesters before their ban was overturned by the High Court and Worker’s Party leader George Galloway and his wife when he was arrested by armed counter-terror police at Gatwick sending them into exile (love him or hate him or whatever you think of him, doesn’t matter really - he’s definitely got some “unique” views - that’s obviously a disgusting, Orwellian and draconian form of political persecution to say the least)

The police don’t need any good reason and more often than not the order comes directly from the govt. The only reason it doesn’t violate the Human Rights Act or European Convention on Human Rights is because it invokes the very vague “national security” exemption which is almost always “this is a matter of national security, trust me bro” and when they get asked for the justification of WHY it’s so-called national security related they always say they can’t disclose the justification because that’s very conveniently to do with “national security” as well.

BRO does this fucking retard not get that the ENTIRE US economy is quite literally in HER hands? 🫩 He should be grovelling at her feet with the amount of economic leverage her country possesses. But apparently the only leverage trump cares about is Mossad blackmail material.

Yk sometimes I feel like he actually intends to self sabotage his own economy on purpose, for example by invading Iran which locked off the Straight of Hormuz, not only is that disastrous because of the obvious oil cut off but it’s the choke point for the Arab Gulf dictatorships which enforce the petrodollar system - no GCC = no petrodollar = American empire collapses - furthermore almost all of the GCC’s food is imported from the straight of fucking Hormuz and because of how dry they are about 60% of their water supply is desalinated, with their desalination plants being hit. Once the Gulf States fall the US falls.

Then there’s the threatening allies, tariffs, disrespect etc.
