🚨BREAKING: A manager at a local diner asked ICE agents for a warrant before they searched a private areas of the business… and their response… slamming him to the ground, and putting a knee in his back, leaving him injured.
Because apparently exercising your constitutional rights is now being treated like obstruction.
According to witnesses, ICE agents were chasing someone who ran into the restaurant after a traffic stop. The manager reportedly told them they could not just storm through the kitchen without judicial authorization.
Because the Fourth Amendment is still a thing… even though ICE agents keep pretending it isn’t.
Law enforcement cannot just search private areas of a business because they feel like it. A kitchen, in a restaurant, is not a public space.
When agents do not have consent, exigent circumstances, or a valid warrant signed by a judge… then managers have every right to question that search.
That is literally how constitutional protections work.
And the fact that the manager was injured, after asserting those rights, should outrage everyone.
Rights either apply to everyone… or they are not rights at all.
A jury found her credible.
She won her case.
Launching a criminal investigation years later is payback.
Trump is weaponizing the justice system to protect himself and silence any other victims.
While we're here, let's talk about how insane and backwards it is that the woman who was pulled over has her full name in this headline but the officer in the wrong isn't named. Just "the officer." Okay!

Terrifying revelation. A retired top US General exposes Pete Hegseth for firing the Army's Chief of Chaplains. He reveals these top generals were purged because they stood up against Hegseth's psychotic claim that US soldiers are fighting for Jesus. A nationalist takeover!
When an insurance company is deciding whether to pay for your medical treatment, it generates a file, which should contain all records associated with your case, including documents explaining why the claim was denied.
You have a right to see this file.

U.S. officials and lawmakers with access to classified information say the Trump administration’s assertions about threats from Iran are incomplete, unsubstantiated, or flat-out wrong. https://t.co/dLCO37pIkI
Several high-ranking federal election officials attended a summit last week at which prominent activists who worked to overturn Trump’s loss in the 2020 election pressed for the president to declare a national emergency to take over the midterms.

President Trump has taken the U.S. into war with Iran despite decades of self-professed aversion to foreign entanglements, particularly in the Middle East, and repeated pledges to focus primarily on the Western Hemisphere with an "America first" agenda.

🚨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.
