So when the #AmericanGestapo says their arrests involve people committing crimes, they are technically correct. But the criminals are in ICE, not Home Depot parking lots or street taco stands.
Not only is ICE snatching hard working people who are trying to earn a living, they’re taking their money too?
A witness recorded ICE agents taking a cash box from a taco stand in La Puente during an operation where four people were arrested.

The evidence is the text. All you have to do is read the Constitution.

Donald Trump Jr has shared a Franklin meme which reads “Franklin Drives by Tim Walz’s House and Calls him the R Slur”
This is political violence.
This is the worst type of ableism.
The mainstream media must call this out.
