ICE only has about 20-30,000 employees nationwide. Including desk jobs so there's even fewer armed. It's smaller than the NYPD.
There's a reason they do their mega raids on one or two cities at a time, and it's not optics. It's because that's all the dudes they've got.
Something to keep in mind.

Do not believe what DHS has to say about this when they put out an official statement. They have been provable liars in similar situations.
“She was trying to turn around, and the ICE agent was in front of her car, and he pulled out a gun and put it right in — like, his midriff was on her bumper — and he reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three, four times,” Heller said. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

This is the thing, he’s really good at flipping over the checkers board but he’s very bad a following through on the next step.There’s no way of knowing what happens next but whatever it is, it won’t be a win for him or for the regime. What that means for the rest of us, who can say?

Remind me: Did Brett Kavanaugh include having your wedding band cut in pieces among the minor inconveniences of being arrested by ICE as a US citizen?
“She has marks on her neck and wrist from where agents restrained her. Agents cut off her wedding ring and held her in leg shackles at Whipple Federal Building for about five hours.”
Her crime: witnessing ICE, from a distance.

BOOM: I'm now comfortable making a firm call. Progressive Sarah Dixit defeats conservative incumbent Jon Bingle in the race for a seat in NE Spokane.
Sarah Dixit: 6,291 (50.5%)
Jon Bingle: 6,135 (49.2%)
This is now outside the recount threshold!

As a pragmatic progressive eastern Washington mom, I’m pretty sure I could primary @schumer.senate.gov and win at this point. Totally predictable and equally spineless. Get bent ‘moderates’ .
