🚨BREAKING: Illinois Governor JB Pritzker demands Trump’s ICE be ABOLISHED:
“If we don’t abolish Trump’s ICE and make sure that we have a trained force that is following the law, this could get vastly worse.”
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. ABOLISH ICE.

In Politika, Aristotle says you can recognize a tyrannical regime in the fact that it intrudes into every aspect of the lives of its subjects while enshrouding the tyrant and his enablers in complete secrecy. What we see with ICE is the demonstration of that principle. bsky.app/profile/davi...
the extreme irony and hypocrisy of a govt masking its secret police while building and enforcing a database recognizing every one of our faces and personal data. 🤬

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

Newsom is NOT your friend, no matter how hard his social media director trolls Trump
This is Rubio-level dereliction. The right way is in front of his face, he senses it. He’s just too dumb to act.

I don't think people understand that if you shut down the government, ICE and CBP do NOT shut down. They're funded by supplemental money from the BBB. That's why dems are separating the DHS funding bill and asking for restrictions. I want them to demand a rescission of that funding or shut DHS down

Finally got around to a bit of research I'd been meaning to explore, and: There is no documented instance of an ICE officer being identified and assaulted while off duty because he wasn't masked. www.pbump.net/o/ices-excus...
ICE’s excuse for wearing masks has never actually manifested
There have been incidents of harassment and threats. But there are no apparent incidents in which identified ICE officers have been assaulted off-duty.
