This giant ICE Army they are building this year is also likely to be at polling places during the midterms in heavily Democratic precincts with the excuse being that they are looking for “illegals trying to vote.”

An extraordinary document. Read it.

“Attached to this order is an appendix that identifies 96 court orders that ICE has violated in 74 cases. … ICE has likely violated more court orders in January 2026 than some federal agencies have violated in their entire existence.”

If police being doxed is an issue if people can see their faces, why don’t the many thousands of state/local police officers wear masks? Why do they typically wear their names and badge numbers in a visible location? ICE/BP just wants to hide from misconduct accountability. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Tillis says he opposes ICE being barred from wearing masks: "I've seen people dox me. I've seen people take pictures and identify law enforcement officers and then put their families at risk. So, I think that's a step too far."

Masking is not about doxing. That is the excuse. They are wearing masks so people cannot identify agents who engage in abuses, civil rights violations, and crimes. You can’t report someone or hold them accountable in any way if you can’t identify them.

I cannot stress how completely bizarre & unheard of it is for the DNI to be personally present for a search warrant execution, never mind this one.

After nearly four years, the grinding war between Russia and Ukraine is approaching a staggering battlefield toll: nearly half a million dead and 1.5 million wounded or missing across both sides.
Russia faces a heavy price for limited gains in Ukraine war, death toll estimates suggest
As losses mount, the pace of Russia's advance has at times been slower than the Battle of the Somme during World War I, a report states.

It truly never ends the behavior of a sore loser in real time. FBI agents executed a search warrant at an election center in Fulton County, Georgia, marking a major escalation in the administration’s campaign against a jurisdiction Trump has obsessively targeted since losing the state in 2020.
