This video is the perfect encapsulation of the illegal, thuggish, unprovoked, violent conduct of ICE. Rep. @benniethompson.bsky.social, I trust that you and the House Homeland Security Committee will have interest in this.

I mean, sure, if there was a war and they snuck up on some soldiers by adopting the trappings of civil aviation, you might call it a war crime. But since there wasn’t one and they snuck up on some civilians who were probably fishermen and at worst drug dealers, it’s just fuckin murder.
Breaking NYT:
The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter.
The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status.
That is a war crime called "perfidy."

But in a sense it's actually worse than a war crime, because there is no war. It's just a crime. It's a crime—murder—whether or not the aircraft can be identified as part of a military force.

Does this mean Melania could be deported for her “marriage” to Trump?
Sen. Marsha Blackburn: "What we would do is amend the Nationality and Immigration Act and make certain that all fraud -- not only fraud above $10,000 but all fraud -- committed against the US taxpayer and our government would be deemed as a deportable or a denaturalization offense."

In my humble opinion, these people should speak out and stand their ground and force the DOJ to publicly fire them. That would make a bigger news story and a bigger impact on these issues.
