And he thinks the workers won't know who fired them??? 90% of workers have been through shut downs and know people were never fired permanently because of that.

This seems as if he's planning on becoming dictator in the next month

NEW: In Kilmar Abrego Garcia's criminal case, his defense team files a motion to suppress statements he made to HSI agents after he was taken into custody by ICE on March 12, 2025.

Shortly after the interview, Abrego was wrongly removed to El Salvador.

www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
On March 12, 2025, agents from the Department of Homeland Security ("DHS") "seized
Abrego I] without any lawful authority." Abrego Garcia v. Noem, 777 F. Supp. 3d 501, 519 (D.
Md. 2025). Mr. Abrego was taken to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement ("ICE") field
office, where federal agents interviewed him in connection with an investigation into suspected
human smuggling without properly advising him of his Miranda rights and without a translator
present. A few days later, DHS unlawfully removed Mr. Abrego to El Salvador.
The government's conduct on March 12 violated Mr. Abrego's Fourth and Fifth
Amendment rights. Because of this flagrant abuse of law enforcement authority, we move to
suppress the statements that Mr. Abrego made to law enforcement when he was unlawfully
arrested and detained.
BACKGROUND
Mr. Abrego's Arrest on March 12, 2025
When the government arrested Mr. Abrego on March 12, 2025, prior to removing him to
El Salvador, he was lawfully living and working in Maryland. See Abrego Garcia v. Noem, No.
25 Civ. 951, 2025 WL 2062203, at *3 (D. Md. July 23, 2025). In 2019, Mr. Abrego secured an
order from an immigration court granting him withholding of removal to El Salvador. (D. Md.
Am. Compl. 19 1, 48, 70-72; see also Compl. Ex. B).' The government never appealed the
withholding decision, nor did it seek to remove him to a third country at the time. Id.; see 8 C.F.R.

A post from failed real estate agent and local ghoul Chaya Raichik aka LibsOfTikTok targeting me. Text of the post reads:

“Leftist CA State Assembly candidate Chris Kluwe, who promotes the harassment of ICE online, was ARRESTED at a Huntington Beach City Council meeting earlier this year.

Chris was protesting a proposed library plaque that featured a phrase similar to ‘Make America Great Again’

Chris called MAGA a ‘Nazi movement’ before leaving the podium and approaching the council member, where he was grabbed by police and carried out.

This unhinged lunatic wants to be an elected official…”

Thanks for the free advertising, Chaya!

ICE left David, a 17-year-old boy, stranded on the side of Interstate 20 after pulling over his immigrant father, Hector, in Mississippi.

David began running in the scorching sun after the car and watched as it disappeared from sight—soon headed to a Louisiana ICE prison.

Here's their story.
