Does anyone else wonder how many of the rioters from January 6, that were given pardons, are now ICE agents?

Sounds interesting @mrjamesob.bsky.social

I compared the user interface in this photo to the leaked user guide I have for Mobile Fortify, and it's the same. Mobile Fortify is ICE's app for verifying someone's identity, immigration status, whether issued order of deportation. ICE says it overrides a birth certificate bsky.app/profile/donm...

Let’s see. He’s anti immigration, racist, and Islamophobic, and Nigel has previously tweeted that he wouldn’t touch him with a barge pole. It’s a toughie, isn’t it? 🤔

So no detoxification after all. Just under six hours of it looking vaguely possible. Rather like the gap between Sunak’s acceptance speech & his appointment of Braverman to the Home Office.

Incredibly, no-one on Nigel Farage’s team has got round to deleting this post. It’s still live as Robert Jenrick gives his big defection speech.

The only questio about 'defectors' to Farage is: "Were they lying before or are they lying now?" The answer, invariably, is "Both". I'm watching the snooker.

Of course, the definitive text on precisely how they broke Britain (How They Broke Britain by 😀) contains an entire chapter on Farage.

Bingo. Farage gives them - and the media - vaguely plausible deniability for the mess they personally made.

I'd be surprised if Farage had seen this in advance. Jenrick's torching potential defectors. The gulf between his talents & his perception of them is pure Reform.

The decent Tories were culled in 2019. The indecent ones are defecting to Farage. I wonder who or what will be left by 2029.

Flying to Minneapolis tomorrow to cover the ICE raids for News Agents, what is unfolding and the politics which flows from it. If you’re there or know the city and know people/organisations we should be speaking to, please get in touch. DMs open.

He had multiple opportunities to prevent this and deliberately pissed them away.

An ICE Agent's Life in Four Acts:

If the Nobel Committee were to say that the reason they can’t give Trump the peace prize is because of ICE that shit would be shut down in 24 hours

Velazquez: The American people are upset. They did not sign on for this. The most fundamental principle for the American people is fairness and humane policies, not beating the shit out of people, especially vulnerable women and children.

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell has hired an expert law firm against the MAGA regime known for being very aggressively and fighting scorched earth until the bitter end without ever settling. I’m glad he isn’t backing down. Punch fascism in the face.

My grandmother’s family was murdered in the chambers of Auschwitz. She survived and told me never let it get that far. Make them shoot you in public before they murder you in hiding. Stand up for others. Never cave in fear of the Nazis or the holocaust will happen again.

Her last "threatening" words to the ICE agent were, with a smile, "I'm not mad at you." His last words to her, after he shot her in cold blood, were "Fucking bitch." Perhaps, perpetually lying JD Vance is as big a sociopath as Jonathan Ross.

You would think a 79 year old man would know the difference between receiving an award that is deserved and taking an award by extortion. The latter is the opposite of "an honor."

AOC: That is a fundamental difference between VP Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

Swalwell: You better believe that accountability is coming. Immunity is going to be stripped. And to Kristi Noem, Tom “Cashbag” Homan, Greg Bovino—your asses are going to be in these witness chairs.

The Murdoch family Should be denaturalized and deported. They have single-handedly caused more strike in misery in this country and anyone except Trump

The American government has gone completely rogue and should be considered armed and dangerous to the entire American population. This is NOT normal, not acceptable, and most importantly, it's NOT LAWFUL. TEST ME, TRY, SEE IF IM STEERING YOU WRONG.

Farage says he will now vote against scrapping the two-child limit. In case it benefits “foreign-born people”. It’s not just the racism, it’s the out-of-control personal greed, combined with the staggering meanness. He’s a repulsively inadequate man. www.thetimes.com/article/0ab2...

"So Trump, Vance, and all their hirelings stand behind all the masked and untrained ICE officers, no matter what any of them might do, no matter how unjustified or indefensible any of their acts. I’m just one citizen. But I stand with Renee Nicole Good." open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...
