The Trump Administration’s pattern is to LIE about shooting victims of federal immigration agents, calling them “domestic terrorists."

Marimar Martinez, whose criminal case was dismissed after CBP’s lies were exposed, wants her evidence unsealed for the American public.

"In theater" is a military term that refers to a wartime theater of operations. ICE and CBP agents are in Minnesota, which is one of the United States. The enemy in this military operation are citizens of Minnesotans and the United States.
Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state?

HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down
