Anecdotal reports of "swatting" via ICE are popping up around the country. They've hauled in (or attacked) enough American citizens to show they're not really very well versed on how to authenticate someone's identity while they're in the field.

Or they just don't care.

Up for some Lego, Jonathan?

The difference between the United States and Israel is the government here is not denying the implementation of forced starvation.

On the other hand, think how this would mitigate the city's housing crisis.

You laugh, but this is how the exododus went extinct

Early this morning, our city still plunged into darkness, I set off to walk the Brooklyn Bridge.

As the sun came up, we were joined by canvassers, labor leaders, elected officials, and working people — a movement to bring a new day to our city.

Tomorrow, we win it together.

Zohran, Tish James and Brad Lander lead a procession of hundreds walking across the Brooklyn Bridge at dawn.

Tish James, Brad Lander, Tony Simone and Rita Joseph wait for the march on the bridge.

They've attacked children trick-or-treating. Pregnant women. Clergy. A postman.
Don't you dare say 'this is not America' because this IS America. It hasn't always been this crude, or on camera, but this is the America everyone in the world sees but we don't as we're in the middle of the battlefield.

ICE brutally attacked a US postal worker in Arlington Heights, Illinois.
What's it going to take? Hegseth bombing a school bus? Oh yeah, THAT sounds too outrageous. Not so outrageous in context with the escalating insanity we've been witness to the past 9 months.

NYC is going to have the world's biggest media-manufactured crime panic in history the second Mamdani is elected. They aren't even going to wait until he is inaugurated. Whether or not you like the guy, you need to start preparing now for the fire hose of disinformation that is about to activate.

Here's the question I have yet to hear on the established news networks: why Nigeria? Why now? Did he not get the briefing on the horrific violence some thousand km east of Nigeria?
Or the pivotal word here 'Christian?'
Would he be sending the US military on a religious crusade?

Mark Haile @circuitmouse 🌈 @circuitmouse.bsky.social · 1d

I doubt the president knows this, but Nigeria is larger than Texas. There are sections of the country where the government has little to no control, not for lack of trying. A military action against Boko Haram would require a lot of intelligence + preparation -and the Nigerian government on board.

Did anyone tell him Nigeria is bigger than Texas? No? We've seen his mapping skills before.

Hunters Point has had a radiation leak for 30 years. After discovering it, the Navy didn't bother to tell anyone:

"go to TikTok. See for yourself."

Pop Base tweets: "Kim Kardashian said on ‘The Kardashians’ that she believes the moon landing was fake:

“They’re gonna say I’m crazy no matter what, but like, go to TikTok. See for yourself. […] There’s no gravity on the moon. Why is the flag blowing? The shoes that they have in the museum that they wore on the moon is a different print in the photos. Why are there no stars?”"

What they've done is open the door for his unfettered extradition to the United States. Now that they no longer poison or chop off the heads of relatives who become an annoyance, that's really as much as they can do (on that side of the pond).

Is that right? They excluded Dems from the Senate hearing on those military strikes of alleged drug boats? Why? What did that accomplish other than to make those military actions all the more questionable? It certainly doesn't add to their legitimacy.
Don't expect anything to make sense anymore.

I would not play poker with anyone who lies like that.

A snapshot of articles about a few of the Americans wrongly arrested by ICE across the country. To date 170 cases are confirmed but the actual number is suspected to be much higher as some of those wrongly arrested have been deported before ICE confirmed their American citizenship.

Kristi Noem: "No American citizens have been arrested or detained. We focus on those who are here illegally. And anything you would hear or report that would be different than that is simply not true and false reporting."

If you have a RING door system, ICE has the right to request that footage and use it against you or your neighbors.

RING is partnering with the Gestapo.

Remember a time back when if a masked man tear gassed + attacked children trick or treating they would be lucky if they lived until their trial; but unlucky in that the inmates in prison would exact their own extrajudicial punishment.
Not so long ago on a planet not so far away.
