He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. Heβs referenced 38,000 times.
I am watching what is happening in Minneapolis on Ali Velshi and one of the ICE officers (off camera) literally says, βItβs like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?β as they shoot whatever it is they are shooting. Agents walking around, guns unholstered for no reason. This is insanity

If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.
Doing their job? Murdering someone seven agents have already restrained and thrown to the ground?
