There has been a shake up as well all know within ICE…..some think it is because of the massive protests and public outcry…..I am skeptical to be honest…..but there are some changes that seem to be for the better….like ICE Goons will be wearing body cams now…..they may wear them but will they be turned on?
Body cameras are about to become standard gear for federal immigration officers working the streets of Minneapolis, NBC News reports. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced Monday that every DHS officer in the field there will now be equipped with body-worn cameras, a move she framed on X as a step toward greater transparency. She added that DHS plans to expand the program to agents across the country as money becomes available. She promised a “rapid” rollout of the program nationwide, CNN reports.
The decision follows intense criticism of immigration enforcement operations in Minneapolis, where federal agents have been conducting what officials call a “surge.” Two US citizens, Renee Good and Alex Pretti, were shot and killed in separate encounters with federal officers on Jan. 7 and Jan. 24, respectively. Bystander recordings from both incidents have raised questions about earlier descriptions from Noem and other officials regarding what happened.
Sorry but I do not trust any of these fools. How about you?
Part of the growing concern for ICE accountability has been shown by a court statement….where it is said that they, ICE, has violated a 100 or so court orders while in Minneapolis.
Then there are the complete LIES that the morons keep telling and the idiots keep believing….like Vance who said…..
JD Vance just got outed pushing an allegedly bogus account of an encounter between immigration enforcement agents and protesters in Minnesota.
“When I was in Minneapolis, I heard a number of crazy stories,” the vice president posted this week, outlining one incident “near the top of the list.”
Vance claimed that off-duty ICE agents and officers with Customs and Border Protection had stopped for dinner at a restaurant in the Twin Cities earlier this month.
According to him, they were “doxed and their location revealed, and the restaurant was then mobbed,” with the federal agents then supposedly “locked in” at the premises as “local police refused to respond to their pleas for help.”
“This is just a taste of what’s happening in Minneapolis,” Vance wrote.
Then the mastermind of ICE, Noem, out to be outdone by the slow witted Vance stated….and hers is even more disjointed….
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem wildly claimed in an interview with Fox & Friends that DHS operations have “saved hundreds of millions of lives” over the past year, even after ICE and Border Patrol agents shot and killed two individuals in Minneapolis this month.
“We’ve got the Department of Homeland Security, which is coming off its most successful year, under his leadership, in the history of the department,” she began.
“We have secured the border. We have driven down the murder rates and the crime rates to historic lows in this country, saved hundreds of millions of lives by interdicting drugs across the country and at our maritime borders,” she added.

Everything she stated is nothing more than wishful thinking…..and what sane person thinks that ICE has had a productive year?
It just keeps getting worse. Where will ICE Goons hit next…..which city will become a battleground against these fascist POS?
Time for the public to act…..the time for passive onlooking is gone….you either love this country or you bow down to Donny and the racist pigs around him.
Which will it be?
+++This is in!+++
Top officials initially labeled Pretti a “domestic terrorist” before any full investigation; Trump later called the killing “very unfortunate” and spoke of “de-escalation,” though he went on to describe Pretti as an “agitator and, perhaps, insurrectionist” on Friday after video showed Pretti kicking an immigration enforcement vehicle. Homan cited increased collaboration and “a safer environment” for the change, per the AP. But tensions remain high, with near-daily viral videos of clashes in the city. On Tuesday, immigration agents drew guns as they arrested activists who’d been tailing them. Former CNN anchor Don Lemon was previously arrested while covering a protest in a church, raising fears about First Amendment violations. There have also been reports of tear gas used on peaceful protesters and children.
Good riddance! Most of these Goons belong in prison!
I Read, I Write, You Know
“lego ergo scribo”
Noem and Vance are just making up shit as they see fit, and only MAGAS believe their lies. I am not impressed by bodycams, or ICE being ‘pulled out’ of sensitive areas. I think they will just go to less sensitive areas, kidnap people, and probably kill a few of them too. It’s just Hitler’s Brownshirts and SA, in different uniforms.
Best wishes, Pete.
We have at least three more years to see where all this is headed ….so let us not concentrate on one little detail this early in the game …the voters knew what they were getting when they voted… and enough of the voted and got what they wanted… now let them enjoy the consequences of their voting… that is the American Way.
