ICE keeps saying the people protesting it are being paid without any evidence, but we have receipts showing that the people *defending* ICE are absolutely being paid.
And yet we only hear lies about the former on cable news.

The cool thing about Pete Hegseth is he's going to break every single law on the books, no matter how old or obscure.
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."

I personally witnessed this in action. I visited a polling booth where less than 10% of voters had cast ballots and then went down the road to watch. During the next 30 minutes, not a single voter entered but when I checked in again over 95% of all eligible voters had *magically* cast their ballots.
