They’re assaulting the mothers and fathers of US soldiers.
Roving gangs of masked men grab human beings off the street.
They send them without due process to prisons in countries they’re not even from where they are then sold into slavery.
Make it stop!!!

If they’re masked, unmarked, and flashing Amazon gear, report it for what it is: an attempted kidnapping by law enforcement impersonators.

I can’t speak for every city, but here in LA, ICE bounty hunters aren’t going after gang members. They’re hunting the vulnerable: gardeners, street vendors, day laborers.
Easy money, no risk.
Folks need to stop pretending this is about crime.

Stephen Miller, one of Trump’s immigration advisors, has between $100,001 and $250,000 invested in Palantir—a contractor providing data services for ICE.
The conflict of interest couldn’t be more obvious as Miller stands to directly profit from the policies he’s shaping.

Masked agents in unmarked cars disappearing people from the street and shipping them to a dictator’s prison. Executive branch officials blowing off federal court orders, wrestling members of Congress to the ground and handcuffing them for asking a question. Smells like fascism.

The first person arrested by the Marines is an Army veteran who was on his way to work at the Veterans Administration. It appears he was arrested for crossing a yellow line which the Marines did not realize was not designed to exclude federal employees from reporting to work.
