Today i apologized to my manager for having to take numerous phone calls from Lebanon because of the bombings and she said “omg who’s bombing them?”
This is the reality of living in the US. This is the ignorance of the American people

Reporter: What do you think of Sid Rosenberg using the term cockroach?

Mamdani: So Muslims in this city, for almost as long as we have been in this city, have had to deal with those with power and platform dehumanizing us — to be called animals, insects, to be called a jihadist mayor….

This language is both painfully familiar to me as a Muslim New Yorker, but also as someone who was born in East Africa, and it is difficult to hear. There’s also a reminder that the silence that often greets this kind of bigotry, this kind of Islamophobia, is what allows it to fester — the temptation to treat it as politics as usual.

And I want to be very clear that I have far more urgent work in front of me than indulging the provocations of a man who trades in outrage and, frankly, fears the city that we are looking to build — one where every single New Yorker who lives here can call it their home.

I am not ashamed of who I am. I am not ashamed of my faith. I am not ashamed of being the first Muslim mayor in the history of our city. And there’s no amount of racism that will change the way in which I lead or the commitment that I hold to each and every New Yorker in this city.

This is really actually SCARY, so a teenage girl got raped by our President & Epstein, reported it and later got her head blown off and officers said it wasn’t a suicide???? AND THIS MAN IS OUR PRESIDENT? WTF.

🚨BREAKING: Law enforcement threatened to kill an unarmed 17-year-old as he was leaving an anti-ICE protest in Indianapolis.

In the video, police officers stop a 17-year-old and order him out of his car.

He calmly asks why.

Instead of answering, an officer opens the car door, grabs his arm, and says:

“I will fucking kill you.”

An armed officer told an unarmed child he would kill him… with zero justification.

The teen looks visibly shocked and gets out of the car.

Officers then shove him against the vehicle and begin searching him.

After threatening his life, the officer tries to justify it by saying,

“He was reaching for a gun.”

The teen responds, “Who was reaching for a gun?!?”

They find no gun… because he never had a gun, and never reached for anything.

This police officer illegally threatened to use lethal force against a minor who committed no crime.

Which is exactly what happens when a government excuses, defends, and normalizes law enforcement aggression.

When officers know they won’t be held accountable, the threats get louder, the lies get sloppier, and the violence escalates.

we know.

The Rodney King cops, who didn't know they were being filmed, all filed reports that said nothing unusual happened in the arrest

More public restrooms across our city?
Relief for all New Yorkers.

[P a u l ◉ @SkylineReport]

They didn’t “question” him. They snatched him. Dragged him outside, slammed him into a headlock, forced him to the ground while he kept repeating the only fact that should have ended it instantly: I’m a U.S. citizen. I have an ID.
The response from a federal agent with a badge and a gun: “That don’t matter.”

Inside the cell, it got worse. Not paperwork. Not due process.
Wailing. Screaming. Crying. Begging. Pleading. Human beings breaking down in cages while the government pretends this is “law enforcement” and not raw, uncut state violence.

This is what happens when probable cause is replaced by vibes, accents, skin tone, and quota pressure. When citizenship becomes irrelevant and cruelty becomes policy. When the message is clear: your rights exist only if we feel like recognizing them.

That’s not border security. That’s a fucking warning shot to everyone.

[Jesus Freakin Congress @TheJFreakinC]

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents are instigating confrontations with U.S. citizens to manufacture an excuse to use force and make arrests, in Albert Lea, Minnesota.

In the video, U.S. citizens are standing in a parking lot.

They are minding their own business when ICE agents approach them.

The agents start taking pictures of them, their license plate, and asking questions they don’t have to answer.

That alone is intimidation.

Then a citizen criticizes an agent saying,

“Especially with all your gang tattoos showing. You take off your badge and then fight? Is that what you do?”

Not a threat. Not a challenge. Speech.

And immediately an agent tries to reframe it:

“Is that a threat?”

That’s the setup.

When that doesn’t work, an ICE agent takes off his duty belt… gun, ammo, restraints… and says:

“Hey, you want to fight?”

This is the tell.

They’re not trying to de-escalate.
They’re trying to provoke a reaction.

Because if a civilian swings back, pushes, or defends themselves, ICE suddenly gets to say:

“assault on an officer”
“resisting”
“threatening behavior”

Even though ICE initiated it.

When other agents restrain him, the same agent suddenly claims:

“I wasn’t serious, I was just proving a point.”

No.
You don’t remove your weapon to “prove a point.”
You do it because you’re trying to start a fight.

Then he admits why they came over in the first place:

“I want to see what was going on with you guys.”

That’s not reasonable suspicion.
That’s fishing.

Then he flat-out says:

“I fuck with anybody and everybody.”

That’s the tactic.

Harass.
Escalate.
Provoke.
Then arrest whoever reacts.

And when civilians call it out, the excuse becomes:

“At the end of the day, it’s a job.”

No.
Your job is not baiting U.S. citizens into confrontations so you can put hands on them.

The man filming sums it up:

“You have the protection of all of this shit knowing if we fuck you up they gotchu.”

Exactly.

ICE agents know civilians can’t defend themselves and any reaction gets criminalized.

So they push.
They poke.
They try to start fights so they can arrest U.S. citizens.

This isn’t immigration enforcement.
This isn’t law enforcement.
It’s manufactured justification for violence against U.S. citizens.

And it’s happening on camera.

🚨BREAKING: In Columbia Heights, MN, ICE agents are going door to door and targeting people based on how they sound, demanding proof of citizenship, then human trafficking them when they refuse to comply with unlawful orders.

In the video, a man is standing by a garage on private property. ICE agents approach him and demand identification.

The man correctly states that he does not have to show ID. He is not suspected of a crime, he is on private property, and the agents have no warrant…

He then asks why he is required to provide documentation.

An agent then says the quiet part out loud… “Because of your accent.”

The man points out the obvious, “You have an accent too.”

The agent then asks, “Where were you born?”

The man responds, “Where were you born?”

At that point, the agent escalates. He orders, “Put your hands behind your back,” then physically grabs the man, shoves him against the garage, and restrains him without a warrant, without probable cause, and without reasonable suspicion of a crime, or even knowing who he is.

Another agent steps directly in front of the camera to obstruct recording, while another joins in assaulting the man on private property.

What’s illegal here is visible on video:

• Detaining someone on private property without a warrant
• Demanding identification without reasonable suspicion
• Targeting someone based solely on accent or perceived national origin
• Using force to enforce an unlawful order
• Obstructing a lawful recording of law enforcement

The man is then taken against his will so ICE can “prove his status.”

That is not a lawful stop, it is human trafficking under color of law, seizing a person first and transporting them elsewhere to investigate their identity later, all for profit.

This is not border enforcement. This is not public safety.

This is government agents abducting people based on how they sound, then trafficking them through detention systems for funding, quotas, and “processing.”

And the question isn’t whether this man had legal status.

The question is how long Americans will tolerate federal agents kidnapping people on private property, calling it “verification,” and pretending the Constitution no longer applies.

This is what every voter in America needs to see. Run this on a loop!

[Jesus Freakin Congress @TheJFreakinC]

🚨BREAKING: A new video out of Minneapolis shows the truth ICE doesn’t want you to see… compliance does not protect you.

In this video, ICE agents pull up to a vehicle and immediately demand the driver’s ID.

The man calmly asks the most basic, legally protected question: “Why am I being pulled over?”

They never answer… because they don’t have a legal reason to stop him.

Even so, the man begins to retrieve his ID anyway.

An agent then orders him to turn off the vehicle. The driver says, “No problem, sir, I’ll get out.”

The agent refuses, then immediately changes commands again: “I need to see your ID.”

Suddenly, an agent on the passenger side pounds on the window. Then he strikes it with a hard object, clearly threatening to break it.

At the same time, the driver-side agent again demands the ID.

This is not confusion. This is intentional command overload… a tactic used to manufacture “noncompliance” so force can be justified.

ICE’s own training materials explicitly state:

“Noncompliance or refusal to cooperate with officer commands, without fighting back, does NOT violate 18 U.S.C. § 111.”

In plain English: not immediately obeying commands is NOT a crime.

And here’s the key legal issue:

Unless agents have:
• a valid arrest warrant, or
• probable cause that a specific crime has been committed

they cannot:
• use force
• break windows
• issue violent threats
• detain or arrest someone

Probable cause means specific, articulable facts that would make a reasonable officer believe a crime occurred… not vibes, not attitude, not silence, not filming, not asking questions.

Back in the video, the passenger-side agent escalates further, shouting:
“First time I ask you to roll your window down, you do it.”

The driver responds:
“Are you in danger, sir? Are you escalating this?”

The agent replies:
“I don’t know. Hands up.”

Despite the driver repeatedly attempting to comply and hand over ID, agents continue shouting conflicting commands.

At one point, the agent orders the driver to “talk to the original agent”… which is exactly what the driver was doing before the window-smashing threat.

Then the man asks, “Are you feeling unsafe or uneasy?”

The agent responds, “I don’t know, man.” while standing on the passenger side of the car, smirking.

The driver finally says what anyone would say surrounded by armed men:
“How many guns do I have around me? I need you to calm down. I’m asking him to stop banging on my car. Is that too much?”

He even offers… again… to step out of the vehicle.

This is not law enforcement. This is intimidation fishing for an excuse.

No probable cause.
No warrant.
No lawful basis for force.

And yet, the escalation came entirely from the agents.

This video proves something chilling: you can comply, stay calm, ask lawful questions… and still be threatened with violence.

So, the question isn’t “Why didn’t he just comply?”

The question is how many people have already been assaulted under this exact playbook… and how many more will be, before this stops?

ICE has kidnapped two Black teenaged brothers 14, and 15 years old. LaShawn James and TreyShawn James. They gave the names and ages and asked for someone to tell their mother.

ICE is kidnapping children and no US politician has the guts to step in the streets to protect them.
