Eventually we're going to find out how many of these newly deputized ICE agents are pardoned Jan6'ers, 3%ers, Oath Keepers and Proud Boys and the number isn't going to be close to 0.
Maybe they really were ICE officers. Or maybe they were a band of vigilantes, arbitrarily snatching brown-looking people off the street.
All eyes are now on LA, but secret police are descending upon smaller towns nationwide too. Masked and armed, they refuse to show IDs or warrants.

Hey guys- White nationalists have helped a white woman in Minnesota raise $300k after she was filmed calling a five-year-old Black child the n-word.

The local NAACP chapter is fundraising for the boy and his family to get legal help. The least we could do is out-fundraise the nazis.

Kind of keen to get behind whichever 2028 Dem talks about MAGA-friendly gulag countries in Axis of Evil terms.
New: Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker is moving to have his state boycott El Salvador in response to Bukele's assistance of Trump, ordering a review of pension investments and procurement contracts.

Allies hope other Dem states will follow suit.
