🚨 18-year-old Nolan Xavier Wells has been MISSING since July 4th after a boat trip to Horn Island, Mississippi with 3 friends. 🛥️ 🏝️
His friends returned to the mainland on the boat WITHOUT him — they thought he caught another ride. His phone was later recovered and returned to family. 👀😳
🚨BREAKING: ICE/Border Patrol are now pistol-whipping 16-year-olds and smashing their heads into the curb.
In the video, an agent illegally tries to detain an unaccompanied minor, in Long Beach, California.
The child has his hands in the air.
An agent runs up and hits him in the head with a pistol. Then two agents tackle him and force his head down against the curb.
After the child is already on the ground, pinned by two armed adults, another agent brings out a K9, for what reason exactly?
Then one agent puts his knee on the child’s neck while another handcuffs him, even though he’s not resisting at all.
Unaccompanied minors are supposed to be handled through child-welfare procedures, not slammed into concrete by armed agents.
Using a gun as a weapon is deadly force. You don’t get to use deadly force on a child who is standing still with his hands up. And putting a knee on someone’s neck while they’re restrained is a textbook violation of use-of-force rules and basic constitutional rights.
ICE/Border Patrol agents are brutalizing people for sport, they are executing people because they can, trafficking children, and if they aren’t stopped no one will be safe.
On video: Congress admits they’ve got $800 MILLION set aside for ICE bonuses up to $44,000.
Meanwhile, the “average American bonus” is $2,500… if you’re lucky enough to even get one.
So let me get this straight:
They can’t fund healthcare, housing, or disaster relief…
…but they can cut cash incentives for an agency that’s detaining people first and checking facts later.
That’s the priority.
ICE agents pointed their weapons at a Minnesota police officer who’s an American citizen. She tried to film the encounter and they knocked her phone out of her hand.
An American teenager was taken by ICE agents outside his home after they struck him with their vehicle and tackled him. They refused to accept his ID on the spot.
This is f*cked up!
There isn’t any law in this country that requires you to provide proof of citizenship on the interior, but unfortunately ICE is racially profiling.
And they don’t care if you say you’re a US citizen.
There are stories that they aren’t even giving you the opportunity to show proof.
So where does this leave everyone?
If you don’t look white, you’re in danger.
BREAKING: ICE agents pepper-spray peaceful demonstrators and journalists and deploy chemical irritants in Minneapolis.
Our partners @StatusCoup captured the moment live on the ground as it happened.
DAMN : ICE grabbed a 17yo Target worker at his job, despite him saying he’s a US citizen. After confirming he was, they dumped him in a Walmart lot 8 min away. Bystanders found him sobbing, bleeding: “They slammed me on the ground.”
