This is a fishing expedition. Kash Patel has been trying to locate evidence to support the grand conspiracy for years now. He’s been at the FBI for nine months. This is all he has. Pure bullshit.

The source familiar with the internal schisms inside the SDFL office said that one of the prosecutors resigned because they “felt like there was something they could not take part in because it would violate their ethical responsibilities.”

He couldn’t “comply” because of his disability…they don’t care
This is not the first time they’ve gone after a disabled person
They target the most vulnerable because it’s an easy way to meet their quota

I had a run in with ICE snatching a man out of his car while walking my children to school this morning in NW DC
I asked a neighbor to continue walking my kids to school and I turned back to document and confront the ICE agents.

Guys, it’s totally cool, the gang of unidentified masked ICE agents armed like it’s Fallujah only burst into the daycare because they were in hot pursuit of a “female illegal alien.”
What were they supposed to do, identify themselves properly & produce a warrant? Wait until the kids had left? Fie!

Arrest them. Change them. Imprison them.

Excessive force. PERIOD!
They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.
📌 Keep sharing videos, everyone, because they’re evidence.
