Logically, all ICE agents must be refused service by all such venues as 1) threats to staff, and 2) threats to safe & orderly environments.
Shun them all, everywhere.

The hideously racist Obama meme Trump posted is literally why there’s nothing he can do to lost his voter base; not Epstein, not the corruption, not invading countries, NOTHING, because he represents the total gutter racism of approximately 35% of Americans. That meme is 100% why they fall in line

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

‘immigrants generated a fiscal surplus of about $14.5 trillion from 1994 to 2023, that the average immigrant is much less costly than the average US-born American, and that immigrants impose lower costs per person on old-age benefit, education, and public safety programs.’
Heads are going to explode 💥
Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third.
All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit.
