1/2 🧵One thing I have seen happening more and more is accounts that are quite likely bots, or people with bad intentions, posting comments, trying to excite people into and clicking on, liking, commenting, or sharing a comment that suggests violence. DO. NOT. FALL. FOR. IT.

Mockler: My unpopular opinion is that Melania's movie makes a great first date. Because the theater will be empty. You can bring in food, you can chat. There's nobody around there bothering you.

No arrests of the ICE thugs who murdered Alex Pretti, Renee Good, or Keith Porter. No arrests of anyone in the Epstein Files. But they arrested Don Lemon because of his journalism.

This is a direct result of hundreds of thousands of people across the nation demanding that our Senators vote no.

This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years.
These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.
