ICE just shot another one of my neighbors. They had the person on the ground, being beaten by several agents, and then fired multiple shots. In front of the donut shop where we like to get donuts for our kids.

It's now very clear that JD Vance is consciously taking on the role of putting a softer face on Stephen Miller's fascism. Vance is becoming chief propagandist for ICE's violent paramilitary warfare against Americans.

This is 100% FALSE. Immigration judges do NOT play any role in issuing administrative warrants. They are generated and signed by ICE officers themselves. ICE’s own training materials say they can’t be used for a search of a home!
Here’s a blank warrant form. Note who signs it.

Some details in the simulation are similar to what we’ve analysed in the real footage, but other key details don’t match
EG: the passenger seat door wasn’t open,
and the figure on the right of the car was not an officer holding a gun as it appears in the simulation.

👀 I would like to say “unbelievable” but that would be inadequate to the moment. 👀
I will have more to say about our strike on Venezuela as soon as I can figure out *if it really happened or if Trump is conflating it with something*, which is a hell of thing to say about a statement from the president about military action.
Well, rumor has it Trump seemed to have just bombed a port in Venezuela. This can give you some military stuff to think about to take your mind off this conversation.
