3 ICE agents in a failed raid did not wear masks.........

I am glad they were run off--but the first thing I noticed was that 3 agents did not wear masks.--I may have mis- counted as there is a lot of movement.



Woman single handedly chases ICE out of neighborhood—protects family from kidnapping.

Woman: "Are you ICE? I want to see your warrant."

Agent: "You have no right to see anything."

Woman: "They don't have a warrant—and don't belong in your house! If you are an immigrant stay in your home! I repeat, ICE is in your neighborhood!"

At one point agents directly threaten to arrest the woman—just for exercising her constitutional right to free speech.

The incident occurred on Bayard Street in the Chambersburg neighborhood of Trenton, New Jersey. #DemsUnited

Trump says Covid is not real, so there is no danger to the agents.

Blue jeans and ratty undershirts. Is that the uniform for ICE, just a vest that says POLICE?

These people are Gestapo and if rumors are true, get $1,500 per arrest.

Per Google AI:
Official policy: ICE is a federal law enforcement agency, and its agents are salaried employees, not paid per arrest or detention.

It's easier to prove that something exists than that it doesn't exist.

Sadly, with hiring stalling in the economy, jobs with ICE are tempting since they pay well and appear to require no prior experience/training. And they let you cover your face to hide your shameful self.

I do think Spanish is (was) a prerequisite for many ICE positions, but who know these days?

Her. She was persistent and demanded to see a warrant. Wish she had called them January 6 thugs, because they probably are. Seems she did finally chase them off.

This woman is a hero, but it would be great if ICE was met regularly by large groups of protestors doing the same thing. Viral videos of the encounters could build the phenomenon more. And, some large marches on DC to protest the federal presence there would be great too.

This brave person did what we should all do. Citizens need to stand up and warn one another when these fascists show up in the neighborhood. Not just one, but all, except immigrants. Record their faces and search for matches. Let every neighbor know.
