Agreed. Undercover DEA agent busting up a drug ring (regardless of debate about what drugs should be legalized) is a bit different from a task force suppressing political opposition through imprisonment and "accidents ". Though I’m wondering if the gap with decrease over the next four years…
Count on it. I recall seeing videos of protestors around Trump’s last year in office getting yanked into unmarked vans. I think it was around the same time he was using customs and border protection to do peacekeeping operations.
How about agent provocateurs infiltrating protests and instigating crime as a pretense for police to crack down?
Would that qualify?

Therein lies the issue with Crying Wolf.
When the real US Secret Police is established next year, the alarm will already have been sounded and will therefore be less effective.
