Frey: "There is deep mistrust because so many of the things that we are hearing are not true. Obviously people can come to different conclusions, but when there is debate about baseline facts like, for instance, did the ICE agent get run over? Guys, the answer is no. It didn't happen."

I've noticed that ICE agents keep yelling "18 USC § 111" at people filming them. I'd like to see the memo they all got on that talking point, and I'd like to know who sent it. Filming ICE or alerting your neighbors to their presence doesn't violate § 111.

In RFK Jr.’s video about Germany prosecuting doctors who violated public health laws, he derided the idea of doctors acting for “the collective”.
We all know he’s killing public health, but now he’s out there blatantly saying it.
