“Everyone was saying that, you know, ICE was gone, you know, January, February, March, because, you know there was not really activity for some people, or people were not paying attention because all eyes were on Minnesota. But ICE never really left.” Allison Galvan, co-founder of the ICE detention rapid response.
"I tried to stop," - last words of Joan Sebastián Durán Guerrero before his constitutional rights were violated and he was murdered in Biddeford, Maine.
For the briefest moments, after several unlawful extrajudicial murders by ICE Agents conducting unconstitutional searches & seizures, John Wayne Mullin called for a pause in these 4th Amendment violating "Kavanaugh Stops". Well, Traitor trump let his lackey know that's not acceptable.
Traitor trump ordered the resumption of these unconstitutional traffic stops with the hope and expectation it will lead to more highly charged confrontations and more deaths.
Never forget these ICE agents are acting this way because they are getting tacit and explicit support from their superiors, higher ups, trump administration officials, rightwing corporate media, and King Donnie himself. They absolutely believe they can brazenly act this way because there iz zero accountability and no future repercussions.
One thing which the Corporate Media doesn't cover and rightwing media completely ignores is these forcible detentions are often happening based on no probable cause. Seeing a brown person isn't probable cause no matter what Beer swillin' Bart O'Kavanugh claims. But, and this is hard truth; white people love these fatal interactions even with so-called "innocent" persons because whites in America believe all black and brown people are a priori guilty of something and just haven't been caught yet, therefore their mistreatment up to and including summary extrajudicial execution in the streets is not a problem.
And don't go thinking any pretend moderate Republicans care. Do you think Senator Susan Collins gives a shit ICE gunned down an innocent man in her state? Or any single Republican in Texas cares Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was shot dead without cause? And that the Federal Government is pressuring and attempting to get all the witnesses to deport themselves so as to ensure the cover-up? Or that there is no body camera footage? Which would perjure the ICE Agents lies as it did when little fascist shit Jonathan Ross murdered Renee Good and called her a "fucking bitch" while he and his buddies let her bleed out?
Well, Traitor trump, Stephen Miller, John Wayne Mullin, et al want these murderous encounters and traffic stops to continue. They want people to be killed because the rightwing propaganda machine goes into immediate overdrive to besmirch the murdered individuals (recall the multiple "killings" of Renee Good) and they want Democrats to get upset and call for the Abolishment of ICE. Republicans would like nothing better than to run on Democrats want to abolish ICE so black and brown monsters can kidnap and rape all the white women.
Fear-mongering over immigrant hordes raping and killing along with Kamala is for They/Them, trump is for You was the greatest American political campaign of the 21st century.
I'm sure you wish it wasn't so but, it is. That's the political reality. Whites are by and large a lost cause. These people aren't your countrymen anymore. They expect your silent and docile acceptance of the new fascist order and want you dead if you protest or interfere.
It's Rule or Ruin, just like it was 165 years ago.
