Not entering, leaving.
This isn’t border security. It’s a test run for a surveillance state.
If leaving the U.S. feels like a threat, maybe the threat is already here.

When you watch these heartbreaking videos showing the cruel and thuggish behavior of ICE agents, remember that these people are not being FORCED to commit these acts — they do so willingly. They could quit their jobs at any time. They could say “enough!”
ICE agents CHOOSE to do what they do.

This story requires a great deal more attention. The Trump administration is doing everything it can to get Russian gas back into Europe. This is Washington and Moscow now in full strategic alignment via a shared vision of a fossil fuel future.
Exclusive: US, Russia explore ways to restore Russian gas flows to Europe, sources say
With a frost covering Europe's energy relations with Russia, officials from Washington and Moscow have held discussions about the U.S. helping to revive Russian gas sales to the continent, eight sources familiar with the talks have told Reuters.

All 8 women, plus a woman from Nicaragua were flown back to the US in the middle of the night.
They were flown back on Bukele's order and on a U.S. plane.
