Whoa‼️

This article from 2014: US Border Agents Intentionally Stepped in Front of Moving Vehicles to Justify Shooting at Them.

And remember, Jonathan Ross was a firearms trainer, a veteran, and spent over a decade working for DHS.

FYI: Dems in the senate can't defund ICE. ICE is funded by the Big Ugly Bill. Shutting down DHS on this vote wouldn't touch ICE, but it would shut down FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, etc. Shutting down ICE requires taking back Congress in the midterms. Dismantling DHS requires the White House in 2028.

20 million Americans can’t afford health insurance-and Republicans refuse to help them

Meanwhile, this is what ICE is doing in Minnesota-and Congress is currently considering a bill to fund these thugs

It already passed in the House

The Senate must hold firm

Fund healthcare
Not ICE
