When this gestapo ICE thug asks "have y'all not learned from the past couple of days" before he assaults a woman

When this gestapo ICE thug asks "have y'all not learned from the past couple of days" before he assaults her, he means they will SHOOT US if we threaten their fragile manhood in any way.

Anybody recognize this fascist who put his hands on a woman?










Trump and Vance made it more likely that another U.S. citizen will be shot by ICE... and deliberately so, justifying the killing of Renee Good by describing her as a 'leftist,' a 'domestic terrorist,' and a proponent of a 'left-wing ideology;' all without any evidence at all of any of that, but, more importantly, sending the message to armed federal agents in a department deliberately staffed with a majority of disaffected white men already inclined against people they disagree with politically, a subset of Americans whose own right-wing ideology aligns perfectly with the rioters who attacked our nation's Capitol and violently attacked the police guarding it; ALL OF THEM pardoned by the very same president who's now asserting that citizens opposing that tyranny are a threat to their violent imposition of armed men outfitted like soldiers into America's communities to 'preserve the culture' as their recruitment lure promised them before they joined. -Ron

The first amendment right to peaceful assembly and protest will be gone within the next year if the people don't resist en masse.

When the pedofelon said to Iran "you shoot, we start shooting" it wasn't meant to protect Iran's protesters. He wants complete world domination and is hoping for an opportunity to take over that country.

It was a threat to all free people of the world, including us.

Not that they don't desperately deserve it, but it's the excuse they are looking for to lock everything down and turn the country into a full police state. There is really no doubt left that a police state is the final goal here. No criticism, no elections, just comply or else.
National strikes, millions in the streets would help, but the organization and infrastructure is scattered and not fully united. And the billion dollar propaganda information system has the national microphone. There is nothing on our side to counter that large scale or in the works to try and do that. For decent Americans with money and influence, now is the time to step up.

ID them and out them. Then sue them, individually. Remember how MAGA used to doxx us and and harass us day and night, to the point of death threats and forcing people to move for their own safety? Time to put that shoe on the other foot.. Time to quit playing nice and use their own tactics against them. They are thugs out to hurt people they don't like.

A way to slow their roll is to tell them. when they start to harass people, that they are not protected from lawsuits, we have a photo of their faces, and we will track them down and sue them for whatever crime they committed. and take everything they own. And we will make sure their neighbors and their businesses (just like they did to us) know who they are..

A nice protest sign would be "ICE does not have qualified immunity and this community has a Castle Law". Also "ICE has no protection under the Posse Comitatus Law". IOW, if they come to you house with masks on, with no ID, with no warrants, it can be assumed they are criminals wanting to harm you or your family, and you have a right to defend your house and property with any means necessary to protect your safety. And that means all the way to the property line.

Protests have to scare ICE, and letting them know they are vulnerable will make them think twice. Keep recording them, and organize a video repository for your area, so that all vids will be accessible in a single place. Back it up, because you know ICE and Noem will try to take it down. The point is to overwhelm ICE with vids - thousands of them on all platforms, so they can't take them down. ICE does not like exposure, so expose them..

But it needs to be huge and overwhelming. We do not have the means to overwhelm the Trump propaganda machine. The MAGAs and Republicans are very organized and we simply are not. Our leadership is scattered and not always effective.
Remember Dean's 50 state strategy? It was an excellent idea. Effective and interactive on the internet. But unfortunately that went away with him because of the "Dean Scream" nonsense from the propaganda media.But it was a positive move.

Remember Dr. Martin Luther King and his brave followers.
Remember John Lewis. Remember the firehoses.

They changed the face of America.

I like the idea of a national strike and walk-out.

I also see noisy crowds appearing at ICE ATTACKS as very effective. It's a powerful statement to a couple of ICE agents, armed or not, to look up and see a swarm of people gathering....

but I think it just got a lot more dangerous. Ice Agents have been told by president dipshit and little turd that they may kill people while on the job and they will cover for you. I hope eventually the murderer will pay for his crime but for now the trump cabal will do everything they can to protect the monster.

PedoFelon is scared shitless about the upcoming midterm election, with good reason. So he will be creating chaos, distractions, probably wars, and I don't rule out LIHOP or MIHOP events that will be blamed on 'immigrants'. He will be pressuring his cabinet crooks to come down harder on We The People in an effort to keep us home and terrified.

The closer we get to election day, the weirder he will get. He knows come-uppance is heading down at him and there is no telling what he will pull to save his own hide.

Be brave, but wise. Look out for your neighbors and community. Get involved with your local DEM party. Take care of yourselves. We need everybody well and strong.

It's crystal clear to me that ICE has complete immunity. A soccer mom was just shot in the face with cameras rolling, and it's a-ok with the regime. That tells you all you need to know.

'Do 40% of police families experience domestic violence?'

“As the National Center for Women and Policing noted in a heavily footnoted information sheet, ‘Two studies have found that at least 40 percent of police officer families experience domestic violence, in contrast to 10 percent of families in the general population.‘” — Conor Friedersdorf, The Atlantic, 9/28/14

are traumatized man-boys. Empty inside, scared but not aware of it, performatively pretending to be alpha males - to try to convince themselves and others. Look at me - I'm loud, no one is allowed to question the things I believe in, immediately react with rage, drive loud vehicles, make fun of anyone that is "different". Desperate to "belong" to a movement that claims it "loves" them, unaware that they are disposable and doing the bidding of evil.

KPBS Public Media:

Experts concerned about white nationalist imagery in ICE recruitment materials


x.com/ICEgov/status/1953474611808448917

Some of the images look like World War II recruiting posters. Uncle Sam asking you to defend the homeland.

Others reference a glorified version of the past. White settlers traveling across the plains toward their Manifest Destiny as Native Americans retreat to the shadows.



https://www.kpbs.org/news/border-immigration/2025/09/22/experts-concerned-about-white-nationalist-imagery-in-ice-recruitment-materials


Southern Poverty Law Center:

The increase in white nationalist content appears to originate with a June 11 post. That day, DHS’ official X and Instagram accounts posted a graphic of Uncle Sam hammering up a sign with the caption: “Help your country … and yourself … REPORT ALL FOREIGN INVADERS.” A hotline number for ICE accompanied the post. Mother Jones reported the doctored graphic of Uncle Sam originated from an X user called “Mr. Robert,” who is associated with white nationalist content. Mr. Robert’s bio highlights the phrase: “Wake Up White Man.” Mother Jones reported on other white nationalist content associated with the account, which included racial slurs and reposting neo-Nazi users. Mr. Robert applauded the use of their graphic, posting, “TODAY OUR EFFORTS ARE COMING OUT OF THE WHITE HOUSE!” A DHS spokesperson dismissed Mother Jones’ assertions about where the graphic came from.

DHS has since continued to post a barrage of graphics, ranging from overt nationalist and antisemitic imagery to coded racist dog whistles about the supposed loss of white American culture, in attempts to recruit people to join ICE. In one recruitment poster, published on Aug. 11, a white Uncle Sam caricature in the style of a Norman Rockwell painting stands at a crossroads of directional signs that include such phrases as “INVASION,” “CULTURAL DECLINE,” “HOMELAND” and “LAW & ORDER.”

The poster includes the caption “Which way, American man?” — which appears to be a nod to the influential white nationalist text Which Way Western Man? by William Gayley Simpson. Published by an imprint associated with the neo-Nazi National Alliance, the book is a reflection and critique of society from Simpson’s travels. While critical of some aspects of society, it largely frames Western civilization as superior and veers into sexist and antisemitic commentary.

Another poster DHS published on its website and social media accounts features the iconic Uncle Sam “I Want You” U.S. Army recruitment image accompanied by the phrase: “America has been invaded by criminals and predators. We need YOU to get them out.” DHS is also circulating a similar poster using the same “I Want You” Uncle Sam imagery calling to “DEFEND THE HOMELAND.”


Social card on X for ICE recruitment.This recruiting image posted to the Department of Homeland Security’s X account in August 2025 features a father and son holding assault rifles and wearing body armor. (Screenshot from X)

A poster published on Aug. 6 features two white men, one older and one younger, with the caption: “We’re taking father/son bonding to a whole new level.” The two men appear in front of an American flag backdrop, wearing military-style garb and body armor while holding assault rifles. The men have no visual identifiers affiliating them with any government agency. Instead, they look like they could be mercenaries or members of an extremist antigovernment militia. The ICE poster raises questions about what sort of people, from what ideological backgrounds, the agency is targeting for recruitment.

Lindsay Schubiner, director of programs at the Western States Center, a social justice group, told Hatewatch, “They [DHS’ social media posts] are not only intended to recruit staff but to normalize the dehumanization of immigrants. At the same time, bigotry and dehumanization wrapped in the American flag conditions Americans to accept the heightened horrors and blatant disregard of civil rights that ICE is inflicting upon our communities.”
