Operation ICE Ride-Along isn’t going as planned. 🔥
Fox News tagged along with ICE, hoping for an exclusive look at “dangerous criminals.” Instead, they got a whole lot of nothing. No threats, no big arrests—just a community that wasn’t having it. The narrative is falling apart.

I'm tired of politicians getting in front of a microphone and trashing victims of disaster.
I want to hear these privileged assholes tell us what they're going to do to help. I want to hear empathy, plans, and support. That's what they were elected to do.
Otherwise they need to shut the fuck up.
