Immigration judge Judge Kristin S. Piepmeier terminated the deportation case against Narciso Barranco, the father of three U.S. Marines who was physically assaulted & arrested by DHS last year while landscaping at an IHOP in Santa Ana, California. He has applied for legal permanent residency.

In a reality-based world this would force a stated change in news outlets' policies not to ever use the phrase "DHS says" until their claim can be proven independently, but journalists' pro-police bias ("why would they lie, they have badges") remains a reliably strong constant in regime coverage
Marimar Martinez was shot by Border Patrol five times.

DHS accused her of being a domestic terrorist.

She went to court to get the body cam footage released.

It shows Agent Charles Exum driving with his gun drawn.

Saying “do something b*tch”.

Ramming her car.

Shooting her.

It shows DHS lied.

According to the @nytimes.com report the couple who was shot, were not taken into custody and were allowed to drive 2 miles back to their home after the shooting where they called 911.

I feel safer now.

This occupation of DC is the strategy that came from the
@JDVance strategy session the other night, so we'd forget Trumps' Epstein coverup

The talking point that EVERY MEMBER OF THE
@GOP is to repeat is "I don't know why liberals are against crime fighting."

Stalin would be proud of them today.

Trump fired Erika McEntarfer on August 1, 2025, hours after a jobs report showed only 73,000 new jobs in July and massive downward revisions wiping out 258,000 jobs from May and June.

He accused her of rigging the numbers, ordered her fired

He will install someone who WILL rig the numbers.
