Reporter: Francisco Longoria was stopped in his car with his son in the passenger seat. One of the Border Patrol agents smashes the glass, and then Longoria drives away. It's very clear that there were no federal agents in front of Longoria's vehicle, yet the agent discharged his firearm at him

Merkley: "What we've seen is that democracies no longer die bc men w/guns go in and take it over. Instead, it's electeds who erode the separation of power. If you have a rubber-stamp Congress & courts that deliver more power to the executive, suddenly you have an authoritarian state. It's here now."
