There are wildly conflicting accounts about ICE shooting Richard Noticias in Los Angeles.

EXACTLY why Judge Ellis in Chicago is trying to make agents there use bodycams.

For months I've closely checked photos of DHS (ICE, CBP, FPS, etc.) personnel for this, very few ever wear them.

The government has killed 32 people in 7 strikes with no evidence they were traffickers. The admiral leading the mission quit. If we had proof, they’d face a court, not a drone.

The law still applies, even to suspected drug traffickers, and right now, the Administration’s story isn’t adding up.

Headline: "US Marshal shot during immigration enforcement operation."

Reality: ICE agent smashed a car window with his gun and it went off, shooting the US Marshal.

Nobody is safe in this America, not even from fake news.

Huynh said in a statement sent by his Congressional campaign. “We must fight back against this fascist regime that has no place in America.”

The agent pressed the gun against the car window and tried to smash the window, Huynh said in a statement. “If they can pull a gun on an elected official and try to bash in my window, there’s no end to the terror they will continue reigning on our communities,”

Yup. This sums up the federal approach. All thug.

Around 11:30 a.m. Tuesday, state Rep. Hoan Huynh said he and a staff member were following an ICE car near Montrose and Kimball avenues when agents blocked his car and one approached the car with their gun drawn.

Trump posted a clip about prosecuting Obama, lied about a summit with Putin, took a foreign made excavator to the East Wing of the White House while he dined with GOP Senators on a paved over Rose Garden a month into a government shutdown but tell me again how Biden was old.

Jfc. ICE weapons purchases increased 700%. Of the $71,515,762 spent, most was “on guns and armor, but there have also been significant purchases of chemical weapons and “guided missile warheads and explosive components.”

It's no longer left versus right or even Democrat versus Republican.

It’s now democracy versus oligarchy. Freedom versus dictatorship. Right versus wrong.

Millions hit the streets this weekend in solidarity with each other and to affirm the foundations of the common good.
