Two dozen masked ICE Federal Secret Police, who are kitted out like they are going to war, kidnap a local and brutalize the community.
Toward the end of the video, they throw a gas cannister that almost hits a baby. 😟

Basically, you can get fired as a government employee for doing what Jerry Jones and Jaime Dimon did in 2020

Trump backed GOP into a big corner with his “balanced budget” point.
The ONLY way House GOP could even think about upholding their “no cuts to Medicaid” swing seat promises and their spending cut mandates is deficit spending and bad math.
Now they have to gut Medicaid & hand it to Elon in public.

This has been shared before but considering the not so secret upcoming raids in Chicago, this could be important information.
Just FYI, administrative warrants (like the ones used by ICE) are not judicial warrants (used by cops, signed by a judge).
You do NOT legally have to open the door for an ICE officer with an administrative warrant *no matter what the ICE officer says.*
