Pastor handcuffed and place in ICE SUV. ICE agents kept asking if he was afraid yet. They eventually released him because he is white which isn't as much fun.
Today my pastor of several years was detained by ICE at the lawful demonstration where ICE officers murdered Renee Good.
Three times they taunted and asked him if he's afraid yet. They let him go because he's white, saying, "Well you're white and it wouldn't be any fun."
This is his story:

If you live in a state or a district with a republican, instead of complaining about Democrats, you should be making their lives a living hell. Because, another reminder, they are in the majority.

Maybe we should all apply and then wash out of the academy.
Omg, this detail from CNN about the ICE hiring snafu is wild. This seems like an HR 101 level thing to get right.
They turned a hiring bonus into something much closer to an application bonus.
Seems like a great way to burn a ton of cash. Also? Here’s some waste for sure!
