Now I know what ICE will tell the world when I am taken

I was born during my parents' tour of Germany

My dad joined to escape segregation in North Carolina

I joined, too

There's only a handful of countries they can send me to where I won't be killed for MY service...

I know everyone is scared

Right now ACCURACY matters more than generating outrage

Outrage will get us all killed

There are ACTUAL dissappearings happening

This is NOT one

This is AI bullshit that makes it harder to track the ACTUAL people being disappeared

People don't have 3 arms

Everytime I watch MSM, It's like watching a hostage video.

Am I the only one seeing this?

With the exception of @maddow & @Lawrence and other @MSNBC pundits, every other news outlet is afraid to call out Trump's BS.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

I'm at the scene where ICE abducted multiple people from Lincoln and Foster this morning.

A WGN producer was among the people taken, allegedly because she was among a group of bystanders who tried to intervene. ICE agents hit this car while making their getaway.

“Over the next two weeks, she received two separate notifications from UPS that her personal mementos had not cleared customs and as a result had been ‘disposed of’ by UPS.”

UPS is 'disposing of' U.S.-bound packages over customs paperwork problems

Shifting Trump tariffs have created a nightmare for UPS, as thousands of packages from overseas pile up at its hubs while they await customs clearance.
