ICE agents are violating constitutional rights every day… and telling you that you have to obey or you will be arrested, or shot. https://t.co/rlHMhgTfJi

[Jesus Freakin Congress @TheJFreakinC]

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents showed up at a work site in Brownsville, Texas, claiming to be looking for two people… and ended up illegally handcuffing TWO U.S. CITIZENS, throwing one of them against a truck, threatening to arrest him again, and scanning everyone’s faces to determine their “status.”

In the video, ICE showed up looking for two people. They asked the foreman if he knew them. He said no.

Then, they asked if they could talk to the other workers about the people they were looking for.

The foreman said, “If they want to talk to you, they can.”

And then an ICE agent tried to scan the foreman’s face to run him through their system.

The foreman told him he was not allowed to just scan his face.

The foreman then walked over to one of his workers’ trucks, where ICE agents were surrounding the work vehicles at their work site.

He asked what was going on.

He repeatedly asked who they were looking for, and told them the people they claimed to be looking for were not there.

The agent responded, “Well, we want to make sure.”

The foreman told them, “Well, we aren’t them. You all need to leave.”

And then an ICE agent threatened to arrest him.

“You need to settle down or I have to put you in cuffs.”

Except this man was not threatening them. He was not attacking them. He was not even raising his voice.

He was standing there, asking questions and telling government agents to leave his workplace, after they had already expanded their investigation beyond the two people they claimed to be looking for.

So, the ICE agent threw him against a truck and handcuffed him.

A U.S. citizen.

And after they released him, he asked for the agents’ badge numbers.

And the agent responded by threatening to handcuff him AGAIN.

The government cannot simply show up, invade your workplace, surround your vehicles, demand access to people who are not the subjects of their investigation, scan your face, and then arrest you because you object to what they are doing.

The First Amendment protects your right to question government agents and verbally protest their actions.

The Fourth Amendment protects you from unreasonable searches and seizures.

And an arrest cannot simply be used as punishment because an officer does not like the fact that you are standing there, asking questions, or asserting your rights.

Then the foreman saw another person ICE had in handcuffs…

He told them they needed to let him go because he was not the person they were looking for.

The agents eventually released the person they had in handcuffs… after scanning his face and discovering that he was also a U.S. citizen.

The government is creating situations where people are expected to silently obey armed agents, who refuse to explain what they are doing… while they violate your constitutional rights… and then punishing anyone who dares to ask questions.

When the government tells you that your only options are blind obedience or punishment… you are not living in a free country.

I chose to live.
And once you make that choice, a strange kind of mutation happens. The fear just evaporates. What could anyone possibly say or do to me that hasn't already been done?
When you survive your own absolute destruction, you lose the ability to be afraid.

Addiction robs us of the power to choose.

I was actively choosing suicide. I knew it. I felt hopeless and alone.

Today, in recovery, I have a choice every day, and that is the greatest gift anyone can ask for.

You are not alone. You are never alone. We do recover.

[👊Ryan King 🔥 @RKING90210]

Hunter, your honesty about addiction and recovery carries real weight.
What you wrote reflects a truth a lot of people live but rarely say out loud — that the fight for your own life is not abstract, and choosing hope is an act of courage.
Thank you for putting words to an experience that’s often hidden in the dark. Recovery is real, and your voice reminds people that they’re not walking that road alone.

Three years ago I sued @PatrickByrne for lying about me. He claimed that I took a bribe and committed treason. He implied I was in some part responsible for the Hamas attack of October 7th.

His lies caused real damage and endangered my family.

On Friday I was awarded $1.7M in punitive damages by a Reagan-appointed federal judge. The court determined that everything he said about me was a complete fiction.

For those of you who don’t know Patrick Byrne, he is the former Overstock CEO who lost control of his company when it became public he was sleeping with convicted Russian agent Maria Butina. He is the man who was in the Oval Office with Michael Flynn and Sidney Powell leading up to the January 6th insurrection.

He is a clownish footnote in history. But his lies travel far and wide. He is a fraud who did the bidding of Donald Trump and Steve Bannon.

This isn’t the first defamation case brought against Byrne, and it won’t be the last. Even after losing, he is still doing it.

He continues to tell his audience he has “three dynamite voicemails” and a former federal agent whose testimony confirms his story. Byrne had three years to bring that evidence to court. He never produced it. The voicemails he did produce, the court found, “do not mention a bribe, implicate contemporaneous involvement in any illegal scheme by Plaintiff, or otherwise independently corroborate Defendant’s story.” The former federal agent Byrne relied on, John Moynihan, gave sworn testimony that contradicted him. The FBI agent Byrne claimed had backed him up denied it under oath.

Those are not my findings. Those are the findings of a federal court. And nothing prevents Byrne from releasing the voicemails he keeps promising his audience. He never has, because the court has already listened to what he produced and found they prove nothing.

Patrick will try not pay this judgment. He didn’t pay the $34,969 the court ordered six months ago either. His strategy is delay. Fire the lawyer. Skip the hearing. File nonsense with courts that have already ruled. Repeat the lie on Alex Jones while the clock runs.

He is not a whistleblower or a spy. He is a man who got played by a Russian intelligence asset, lost his company over it, and has been performing a spy fantasy on the internet ever since.

He is a coward who wouldn’t even show up in court to face me. He is hiding in Dubai, where he fled during my case to avoid being deposed, and told the court a story about a Venezuelan hit squad to explain it.

He will run from this judgment the same way he ran from my trial. Fine. Every defamatory statement is a new lawsuit. I have as much time as he has words.

Putin

Last night Donald Trump released a declassified document that says his own intelligence community identified Putin as personally running an operation to defeat my father in 2020, built around a fake Burisma corruption scandal centered around me and executed through prominent Americans.

Trump tasked his personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, to fly to Kyiv and meet a known Russian agent.

The Americans who ran, laundered, and legitimized the operation:

Donald Trump. Rudy Giuliani. John Solomon. Joe DiGenova. Victoria Toensing. Lev Parnas. Igor Fruman. Chanel Rion. Sean Hannity. Steve Bannon. Miranda Devine. Ken Vogel. Ron Johnson. Chuck Grassley. James Comer. Jim Jordan.

To name a few.

An operation formally sanctioned by Trump's own Treasury Department on September 10, 2020, and expanded to include more named actors on January 11, 2021.

Oh, and don't forget the Russian-linked FBI informant Alexander Smirnov, who later pleaded guilty to making the entire Burisma bribery story up.

The record exists and we have all the receipts, and more.

Secret Service show up to interrogate U.S. Air Force veteran at his home—over social media post.

Video showed him burning Trump flag—by fire breathing.

"They asked if I was a threat to the President," he said.

"I'm no threat to anyone long as they don't violate Constitution is what I explained to them."

"I have a perfect military record and 7 combat operations under my belt—and I don't like being bugged by anyone associated with this administration."

Lt. Col. Sean Rowsey commanded the 824th Base Defense Squadron known as the Ghostwalkers.

Serving 31 years in the Air Force—participating in 7 combat operations.

The blood drawn by ICE is on every Republican’s hands.

[Jesus Freakin Congress @TheJFreakinC]

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents were filmed assaulting, handcuffing, and kidnapping a U.S. citizen in Passaic, New Jersey… while refusing to even look at the ID he repeatedly begged them to check.

A man is pleading with federal agents to verify who he is…

And they refused.

Instead, one agent says, “We need to get him on the ground,” puts him in a chokehold, throws him to the ground, and multiple agents pile on top of him before handcuffing him, and throwing him into their vehicle.

Under the Fourth Amendment, the government cannot arrest, or seize someone, without probable cause that they have committed, are committing, or are about to commit an offense that authorizes the arrest.

U.S. citizens are also not required to carry identification unless they’re driving a motorized vehicle.

And if federal agents are refusing to verify someone’s identity before arresting them, then they are openly ignoring the constitution.

Which should terrify every American.

Because that means no one is safe from being kidnapped by the government… and disappeared.

Every agent involved should be publicly identified, and DHS should be forced to explain why they believed they had the legal authority to seize someone, while refusing to verify who he was.

This cannot become normal.
