🚨BREAKING: Men posed as ICE agents and detained and assaulted a woman… and Tom Homan is telling everyone that they just have to comply with this.
A woman was driving on Highway 211, in Oregon, when a vehicle with flashing red and blue lights pulled behind her.
Believing she was being stopped by law enforcement, she pulled over.
Two men approached her vehicle, one was carrying a rifle, and they claimed to be ICE agents and told her she was being detained.
They pulled her out of her car, searched her, and put her in the back of their vehicle.
Then, a third man… who remained inside the vehicle… assaulted her.
He told her he was the “guard.”
The men were wearing tactical vests labeled “POLICE,” carrying fake badges, and wore face coverings.
They held her for nearly 20 minutes before telling her she was free to go… and then she drove herself to the hospital.
And while she was there, she reported that she started receiving text messages from someone claiming to be a law firm offering legal representation for her detention.
Federal authorities later confirmed this was NOT an official ICE operation… These were people pretending to be federal agents.
And this is exactly why Tom Homan telling people to “comply” with anyone claiming to be ICE is so incredibly dangerous.
Because what is a person supposed to do when someone in a tactical vest, carrying a gun, pulls them over with flashing lights and says they are federal agents?
Just trust them?
This is not about telling people to resist legitimate law enforcement.
This is about the government normalizing a system where anyone can look like an armed federal agent, claim to have authority over you, and expect you to obey without being able to verify who they are.
That doesn’t make people safer.
It makes everyone more vulnerable to being kidnapped, assaulted, or killed by criminals who know they can pretend to be ICE.
Text messages that were not seized but available under the Presidential Records Act because they were text messages that have been sent to the president. Delete your account and resign from the office you are morally incapable of occupying.
BREAKING NYT:
Federal officials said in court documents that they halted billions of dollars in funding for energy projects to states "based solely" on whether they backed Trump in the 2024 election.

Before the start of the Iran war in February, the national average price of regular gas in the U.S. was $2.98 a gallon. It’s $4.11 now but check out what I saw yesterday driving around the Washington, D.C. area. And with the war escalating, it will continue to go up!
Elon is delusional or a liar. His position is that no one died from DOGE feeding USAID into the “woodchipper” as he so vividly said, but also private foundations should have these programs, but also there weren’t cuts?? Completely incoherent spin and bullshit
Let me explain this absurd ruse: The Pentagon is pretending there have been two Iran wars separated by a brief cease-fire.
The reality: By going more than 90 days without congressional authorization @SecWar IS BREAKING THE LAW and must be held accountable.
🚨BREAKING: A Ukrainian refugee was filmed being physically restrained by men in plain clothes, at San Francisco International Airport, who claim to be ICE agents.
In the video, she is terrified, begging them to talk to her, and begging the people around her for help as they try to handcuff her.
And we are all just expected to believe these men are ICE agents.
Even though they aren’t clearly identifying themselves, they aren’t explaining what is happening, and they aren’t showing proof.
They are just men, in plain clothes, trying to physically take a terrified woman away.
And the Republicans who support this are the same people who spent weeks exploiting the murder of Iryna Zarutska… a Ukrainian refugee killed by a Black man.
They plastered her face everywhere. They used her death to attack Democrats. They pretended to care about the lives of Ukrainian refugees.
But now, the Trump administration is hunting down refugees… including Ukrainians… and suddenly that concern about their lives has disappeared.
And this happens as the government tells you… if a group of men, in plain clothes, claim to be ICE… you are expected to blindly trust them as they drag you away.
Because we now live in a country where people are expected to gamble their lives on whether the strangers trying to take them away are actually who they claim to be.
And if you guess wrong, you could die.
President Trump laments that he's gotten "no credit" for the "$19.2 trillion" in investment he says the US received in his first year back in office, which is likely because the US did not actually receive $19.2 trillion in investment.
Unbelievable — so Trump claims an election was stolen from him… now doesn’t seem to care?
If it wasn’t clear before, it should be clear now: all these claims of stolen elections are just a pretext to justify interference in the midterms.
