🚨ICE agents are threatening to assault and illegally arrest U.S. citizens in Portland, Maine.
In the video, a man is legally observing ICE activity in his own neighborhood.
Agents walk up to his car window and ask, “Are you following us?”
The man replies, “Yeah.”
An agent immediately escalates and says, “What you are doing is called impeding federal law enforcement. It’s an 18 U.S.C. §111 charge. This is your first and only warning. If you continue to impede and follow us, you will be arrested.”
The man then correctly responds, “Yeah, but I’m not impeding you.”
Another agent jumps in and says,“You just openly admitted you were following us, so…”
And again, the man correctly explains, “I am following you. I’m not impeding you. I’m observing you.”
Which is a constitutionally protected right.
The agent responds anyway, “It is impeding.”
The man replies, “No, it’s actually not.”
At that point, the agents become visibly angry that he knows the law and threaten him again, saying, “This is your one warning. If you keep doing it, we will pull you back out and arrest you.”
Just to be very clear…
Following and observing law enforcement, without interference, is not a crime.
Threatening arrest anyway is an abuse of power.
Threatening to “pull him out” of his vehicle is a threat of unlawful force.
These agents are not enforcing the law, they’re misstating it, weaponizing it, and hoping intimidation will do the rest.
They don’t understand the laws they claim to enforce. They just parrot a few buzzwords and statute numbers, and expect the public to fold.
And when that doesn’t work, they threaten violence.
Because the biggest threat to an ICE agent is someone who knows their rights.
@RonFilipkowski Feel like now's a good time to remind the world of what Vivian herself has to say about this satanic sperm donor. Elno sees his kids as nothing more than byproducts of his world domination quest
This isn’t grief, it’s cruelty!!! He didn’t lose a child. He chose to erase her. Vivian is alive. What died was his ability to love her as she is. His ability to love her as a father. Blaming “wokeness” isn’t parenting, it’s cowardice masked as righteousness. And no virus did that, he did.
to my trans and nonbinary friends, and the community at large, i am so fucking sorry. know that you will always be safe with me and valid to me, and i will keep fighting beside you until you can live your life freely and happily, without fear, whatever that looks like to YOU. i love you so much.
Everything is under the cover of darkness, the swearing in will be indoors, there's no parade. This is not business as usual. And the weather has nothing to do with it.
they stopped an app before a genocide. they stopped an app before homelessness. they stopped an app before food insecurity. they stopped an app before raising minimum wage. they stopped an app before school shootings. they stopped an app before giving healthcare. an app.
My hatred for Donald Trump has nothing to do with politics because he has no policies. My disgust has to do with his behavior as a human being. He’s a pile of fucking shit.
Not really sure why, but thinking a lot about my granny today. Thinking about how when I moved to LA she watched every video to keep up with me. Thinking about every time I called her she would tell me how much she adored what I was doing. Thinking about how proud she’d be to see where I am now. To see what I’m doing. To see my house. To see Spencer. To see the show I did. To see the things I’m working on. She really was a fucking angelic human being. I really, really fucking miss her. She was such a gigantic part of my life. I love you, granny.
