I just checked and this is real. It's on Border Patrol's official Instagram (I don't see it on Facebook) and is being celebrated by Nazis on Twitter, as you can see in the screenshot.
The clip is just 13 seconds long too, so it's a very intentional thing. We've got a Nazi government.

This straw man was literally a plot line on the Pitt
Vance: "If you're an American citizen & you've been to the hospital in the last few years, you've probably noticed wait times are especially large & very often somebody who's there in the ER is an illegal alien. Why do those people get healthcare benefits at hospitals paid for by American citizens?"

John Roberts was part of the 3-judge panel presiding over Hamdan v. Rumsfeld while actively interviewing for a seat on the Supreme Court. He didn't recuse himself, didn't inform Hamdan's lawyers, and ruled in the Bush admin's favor the day before he interviewed with Bush himself.
A new book lays out how John Roberts was pitching himself to George W. Bush for a Supreme Court seat at the same time he was presiding over a controversial case involving Bush's administration.

In a genuine WOW moment, this administration publicly acknowledges (perhaps for the first time) that an ICE officer violated procedure and will be taken off duty and subject to an investigation. This is a step in the right direction — I just wish it wasn't only because of such an awful viral video.

10 million people kicked off health insurance! 14 million additional deaths, including 4.5 million children under 5, in the next five years! Value of US dollar falling by record levels! 500 tons or emergency food incinerated out of spite! HE’S CRUSHING IT!
![President Trump, in terms of raw accomplishments, crushed his first six months in historic ways. Massive tax cuts. Record-low border crossings. Surging tariff revenue. Stunning air strikes in Iran. Modest inflation.
Yet poll after poll suggests most Americans aren't impressed. In fact, they seem tired of all the winning, Jim VandeHei and Mike Allen write in a "Behind the Curtain" column.
Why it matters: Trump appears to be losing by winning. The more he does [link.axios.com] (including issues beyond his legislative wins), the more the general public, especially independents, shrug — or recoil.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:j5fbnzh57rn7xz65yjc36gxb/bafkreid7bfz6usem2jf2exo67cim52eu7qotw3bkjmmmjgb3dj4iopy6oe@jpeg)
