Lmfao this happened all the time in Arizona when the law S.B1070 was passed ice agents would perform these very stops all the time. ICE has never cared about reasonable articulable suspicion of a crime, just another DWB (Driving while Brown)

[Jesus Freakin Congress @TheJFreakinC]

🚨ICE agents pulled a man over, accused him of a traffic violation that his own DASH CAM disproved, then illegally used that stop to demand his immigration status, in Pittsburgh.

And this is exactly what it looks like when a traffic stop becomes an illegal fishing expedition… for immigration status.

In this video, ICE agents surround the man’s car, with what appears to be a police vehicle behind him. A masked ICE agent aggressively approaches the passenger window while another ICE agent goes to the driver’s window and demands his ID.

ICE agents are federal immigration officers, they aren’t local police…

So, why are ICE agents the ones surrounding this car, confronting the people inside, and accusing the driver of a traffic violation… while the cop appears to walk up afterward?

If this was actually a traffic stop, why is the cop not initiating and enforcing the traffic violation?

The driver asks why he is being stopped.

The agent tells him he was “riding that guy’s ass” and claims he was following the vehicle too closely.

Except there’s a problem… his dash cam video shows the exact opposite.

He was traveling in his lane when another car… coming from a merge lane… pulled directly in front of him.

That is the moment ICE agents appear to turn on their lights, since the driver slows down and pulls over.

So, he understandably says, “Me? I wasn’t following anybody.”

The agent doubles down, claiming he was too close and that he “has to be a car length away.”

Then, they demand that both people get out of the vehicle. The passenger is taken by ICE, while another agent asks the driver whether he has any weapons.

And then comes the real reason for the stop…

“Are you allowed to be here? Are you illegal? Are you allowed to be in this country?”

The driver tells them he has his resident card and hands it over.

Eventually, they let him go.

And THIS is where the constitutional violations become impossible to ignore.

The Fourth Amendment protects people from unreasonable searches and seizures. A traffic stop is a seizure, meaning the government needs reasonable suspicion that a traffic violation, or crime, actually occurred.

Even during a lawful traffic stop, officers cannot prolong the stop to investigate an unrelated matter without additional reasonable suspicion.

So, when the alleged traffic violation turns into demands for identification, orders to exit the vehicle, questions about whether the people in the car are “illegal,” and an immigration-status check… the Fourth Amendment comes into question.

And the fact that they eventually let this man go, after determining he was lawfully present, makes this even more disturbing.

Because what exactly was the point of stopping him?

He clearly wasn’t violating any tailgating law.

So this wasn’t a legitimate traffic stop…it was a fabricated pretext to investigate his immigration status.

And that is precisely why the Constitution exists.

Because the government doesn’t get to say, “We wanted to check who you are, so we made up a reason to stop you.”

And ICE does not get a free pass to stop Americans, and legal residents, and demand they prove their citizenship.

The government has to follow the law, too.

Say it louder for the people in the back! Driving isnt just putting a key in and moving a lever or button or switch to go forward and backward it takes time and skill to learn.

[Ravious101 🦅🇺🇸 @Ravious101]

If you see a teenager in an empty parking lot doing donuts or drifting, don’t call the police on them. If you are worried about them just observe.
The kids are gonna learn best on how to travel in snow and slick weather by having a little fun in it. They will learn how to correct the vehicle and how their vehicle acts when we have this type of weather.
I know I learned best when a few friends and I went to do the same thing.
It taught me so much about how vehicles respond to this weather and road conditions. I’d rather my kid learn in an empty snow covered lot then crashing on the road or highway.

It wasnt sentiment retail went broke and has been in recession for well over a year. Etfs didnt rotate into alts and alt etfs have been slow to approve making even speculation on which assets get listed has dried. BTC Reserve never happened and so much more. JMO...

[PlanC ✊🦙 @easynow70]

imo @IvanOnTech and @ctoLarsson provide some of the best content in the space

both nailed it turning cautious on oct 8

I will just add this : ...oct 10 saw many alts crash 90%+ and $ETH crashed to $1400 last april...

MY THEORY is the following : sentiment PEAKED already in dec 2024...
maybe the cycle top was dec 2024... and dec 2025 will mark the bottom of a very weird bear market of 1 year

thots ??

An isolated crypto sell-off:

US stock market futures just opened and they are completely unfazed by the crypto decline this weekend.

Even as crypto has lost -$100 billion since Friday, US stock market futures are GREEN.

Meanwhile, gold just opened above $4,100/oz and yields are on the rise.

The isolated nature of the -25% crypto downturn further supports our view:

This is a leverage and liquidation-based crypto "bear market."

A bottom forms when market structure is re-established.

Noone should believe the "real unemployment percentage" its always been wrong and lagging indicator consumers have been in recession for over 1 year already.

[Amanda Goodall @Amanda_Goodall]

Long-term unemployment is 25.7%

1 in 4 unemployed Americans have been out of work for 27+ weeks.

The last time this number breached 25%?

2009.

A full year into the recession.
Yes, that one.

Is that clear enough on why I don’t believe the 4.35% unemployment rate?

It will likely bounce but the cycle is finished ruined by bad actors again. It looks like we may have enough volume to hit 130k-135k but its done and not a single sign of life in the altcoin market.

Folks - this is why no one is buying houses.

Income growth is 21.9% since 2019.

Mortgage cost growth is 91.9%.

Costs to buy have gone up 4x faster than incomes.

Not sustainable.

Us labor market HAS been in recession for a year real unemployment is the U6 number at around 8% and this isnt accounting for, farm workers, construction workers, and meat packing facilities. The food industry is being hit hard and the ripples are starting ground beef ATH.

[The Kobeissi Letter @KobeissiLetter]

There are 2 scenarios after today's data:

1. The US labor market is entering a recession

2. Something is seriously wrong with the data

The unemployment rate is rising and -258,000 jobs have seemingly disappeared from the data in 2 months.

That's more than the entire population of Scottsdale, Arizona in a single data revision.

This comes just 24 hours after the Fed said we have a "strong labor market."

Something doesn't add up.

[Jo Lerma @Ttj1364]

This definitely checks out.

Republicans are celebrating the passage of the largest Medicaid cut in U.S. history to pay for the largest tax break for billionaires in American history.

51,000 Americans will die each year so that the top 1% can get a $1 trillion tax break.

This bill is a death sentence.
