Alex Pretti's parents found out about his death when the Associated Press called them. They then had to make phone calls until they reached the county medical examiner. So heartbreaking. coloradosun.com/2026/01/24/c...

While it is widely believed ICE is mass hiring unqualified recruits, those organizing and carrying out illegal operations; leading those with less experience are Iraq and Afghan war veterans; they were hired to act as Trump's paramilitary force, loyal only to the regime.
The image is an advertisement for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) recruiting veterans The image compares the operational settings and gear of the Military Special Response Team and the ICE Special Response Team. Both teams appear to operate in similar tactical environments, suggesting comparable skill sets are valued in both roles. The image is a screenshot of an exclusive news article from February 25, 2025, detailing a mass deportation plan circulated by allies of Donald Trump. The plan suggests using "processing camps" and a private citizen "army."

Trump’s polls are in the toilet, he was a laughingstock at Davos, forced to surrender on Greenland, nobody wanted to join his Bored of Peace club, late-night comics are picking on him, Gavin is stalking him, Melania sleeps in a separate house, & nobody will give him real prizes.
