             Good. It's about time they all are cross trained in crowd and riot control so they can supplement the ever increasing removal of illegal alien migrants from the U.S.

             Of course, illegal alien shills like @PabloReports NEVER give the other side of the story. All we hear is that ICE busted in a man's car windows. NOT A WORD about why or what actions preceded ICE's action. 
           CICERO, ILLINOIS — ICE agents shatter both truck windows of a man sitting in the parking lot yesterday at Menards, then abduct him into an unmarked vehicle. Menards then allegedly told their workers to delete all videos of what they'd just witnessed or they would be fired.

             Completely false. The President cannot use emergency funds for SNAP, and Senator Warren has voted against SNAP funding 12 times in the last month. Instead of blaming the President, Senator Warren should do her job and vote for our bipartisan bill that fully funds SNAP. 
           For the first time in modern history, Donald Trump is shutting down SNAP. That means 42 MILLION Americans will miss out on food assistance funds starting November 1. Donald Trump is choosing to let mommas and their babies go hungry.

             What some are calling "wrongfully detained" is the result of the Biden Administration breaking the immigration laws of the United States and the Trump Administration enforcing them. This includes the judicial process. 
           “As somebody who is the proud daughter of immigrants who fled an authoritarian regime, seeing what's happening in the US right now with ICE and Stephen Miller’s version of ICE is devastating. Two hundred American citizens have been wrongfully detained this year. There are

           Randy Fine called @ZohranKMamdani "the enemy within" and said that he should be denaturalized and deported for not being loyal to America. Sounds like a dual loyalty trope to me. So, why don't we kick Randy Fine's fat ass out of the country for being loyal to Israel over America?
