“Nazi maggot ICE agents should be terrified…and subsequently executed…with two f**king bullets to the back of their Nazi maggot heads!”   After receiving this threat, ICE launched an investigation and identified Daniel Barber as the person who sent these death threats. Barber was arrested on April 10, 2026. He has a lengthy criminal history, including a conviction for murder and robbery with intent to cause bodily harm in 1990.   ICE law enforcement officers are facing an 8,000% increase in death threats. The violence and dehumanization of these men and women who are simply enforcing the law must END.

Our hearts are broken. On this Easter Sunday, a wife, kids and grandkids are mourning the loss of this man. Per his agency: Deputy Michael Jimerson, 61, husband, father, grandfather, was shot and killed in the line of duty this week on disturbance call in Ocean Springs, Mississippi. Deputy Jimerson and other Jackson County sheriff’s deputies were dispatched to an apartment complex around 11 p.m. Wednesday. One of the subjects fled, then pulled out a gun and fired as Jimerson pursued. Jimerson returned fire, and in the exchange of gunfire, both were struck. Deputy Jimerson was transported to Ocean Springs Hospital, where he succumbed to his wounds. The suspect died at the scene. Deputy Jimerson had served with the Jackson County Sheriff's Office for 16 years. Survivors include his wife, two children, and grandchildren. His son is a police officer at a nearby police department. “Since I’ve been here, I’ve never gotten a single complaint about him,” Jackson County Sheriff John Ledbetter told the Sun Herald. “He had a positive impact on everybody he met. The community loved him. Everybody at the Sheriff’s Department who worked with him loved him.” By day, Jimerson worked full-time for Sparklight Internet and Mobile, then spent his evenings patrolling the streets of Jackson County. “He would go to work all day at Sparklight, go home and change, and then go to work for the Sheriff’s Department,” Sheriff Ledbetter said. “Everybody just loved him.” Michael Jimerson. Say his name. His life mattered. REPOST and let's honor him. #thinblueline #Lawenforcement
