A Reporter was driving by a Chicago ICE facility when a ICE agent shot her while she was in her car with a rubber bullet! She had to be taken to the hospital and now that Agent is being criminally investigated! 🤬
Jessica: The guy who drove up to the Mormon church… was a Trump supporter. He had a Trump-Vance flag in his backyard… When the shoe is on the other foot and you can't demonize the left for this one, they say nothing.
It’s clear that ICE is deliberately targeting citizen activists who have been monitoring and warning communities about ICE activity. This is being done without any oversight or accountability in a totally irregular fashion, because ICE is out of control.

“Show us your warrant.” “Ma’am, you’ve been watching too many movies. We’ll show you the warrant after we’re done.” 🚨 That’s illegal. ICE needs a judicial warrant to enter your home, not just a badge and bad attitude. Don’t open the door.
"I've been pushed around my whole life, and i will not stand for it anymore" - woman who wanted me to take $2 off her lasagna
ICE smashed the windshield of this US Army veteran, pepper sprayed him in the face, and held him for 3 days with no phone calls all because he was trying to go to work.

Genuinely, what are they doing? Standing around, full military gear, on their phones, faces covered like terrorists, and then they decide they're going to... beat up some random guy because he's in their space? How is this any different than a street gang?

It certainly appears the United States murdered an innocent fisherman who was a husband and father to four children, claimed he was a "narco-terrorist," posted a video of the execution, and then made jokes about it

Good to see the Secretary of Defense take the metro like a normal person
“The illegal strikes on civilian boats off the coast of Venezuela seem designed to test the limits of order-following: When asked to cite which legal authority sanctioned the attacks, no individual within the administration has been able to provide one.” open.substack.com/pub/thebulwark…

Elon absolutely hates being called Sissy SpaceX™ so double check if you're still following me, and retweet for visibility
a child: what’s that? me holding an oreo milkshake: it’s spicy you won’t like it.
