Given how incompetent and weak these agents seem to be, arresting and grilling a bunch of the low level thugs seems really important to exposing stuff further up and simply understanding how it’s run.

A judge in Chicago just flipped the script completely.

If ICE agents are caught trying to arrest someone at or around a courthouse, they can now be arrested themselves.

Cook County’s top judge made it illegal for ICE to detain anyone inside or even near a courthouse.

Yesterday, a federal judge ruled that Gregory Bovino and other officials can be questioned under oath over agents using chemical agents on protesters, journalists, and clergy in Chicago. A lot of ICE agents still mistakenly think that they’ll never be held accountable. They will.

He’s doing his best to make us like one of his failed ventures.

A tweet from Jessica Riedl reads: “That it took the White House 9 months to figure this out is economic malpractice.” Below it, a tweet from Unusual Whales says: “BREAKING: The US is rolling back tariffs on ‘products that cannot be grown, mined, or naturally produced in the United States,’ per WSJ.”

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

The President is building an army to attack his own country.
