Uniforms so people can know they are ICE and interfere with their work? They were driven to this point by democratic leaders emboldening obstruction of justice efforts. Dems - create problems, people find solutions, then they outrage about it.
Meanwhile, in Texas: Four years after Gov. Greg Abbott announced Texas would be the first state to build its own border wall, lawmakers have quietly stopped funding the project, leaving only scattered segments covering a small fraction of the border. That decision, made in the waning hours of this year’s legislative session, leaves the future of the state wall unclear. Just 8% of the 805 miles the state identified for construction is complete, which has cost taxpayers more than $3 billion to date. The Texas Tribune reported last year that the wall is full of gaps that migrants and smugglers can easily walk around and mostly concentrated on sprawling ranches in rural areas, where illegal border crossings are less likely to occur. Read the whole thing. https://www.texastribune.org/2025/06/17/texas-border-wall-funding-ends-abbott-trump/
Cruelty by the government ICE deports teen soccer star with no criminal record after graduation, shocking community For 19-year-old Emerson Colindres, it was supposed to be a routine check-in with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. It turned out to be a trap. He never returned home. Colindres, who came to the United States with his family more than a decade ago to escape the violence in their native Honduras, was detained by ICE on June 4, just days after the talented student and soccer player graduated from high school in Cincinnati. Colindres, whose teammates said was one of the greatest players they met on the field, dreamed of continuing his sports career and hoped to attend a university. He did not have a criminal record, according to the Butler County Sheriff’s Office. In the span of two weeks, Colindres went from celebrating his graduation to being detained by ICE to then being deported to a country where he has not lived since he was 8 years old.
When Trump and his henchmen loyalists and racists spew on about criminals, gang bangers, murderers, and rapists and can't find enough so called real criminals, they just start deporting anyone they can. Then he will say he deported a million thugs, criminals, rapists, and murderers to make America Safe Again. It doesn't matter if 500,000 had already been sponsored, vetted, and we're working or not. It doesn't matter how many of them were escaping extreme poverty, violence, or discrimination, and needed refuge. It doesn't matter if another 300,000 were committing no crimes besides crossing the border. It doesn't matter how many thousands were hard working laborers exploited or payed under the table illegally by American employers. In the end, we will never know the real truth, and certainly not hear about crimes upon these illegals by imposters, the National Guard, or anyone else from the Trump Administration. Trump and Noem's commercials, and the overkill of National Guard and bringing in troops are just a bunch of hyped up Authoritarian State fear mongering tactics and a waste of taxpayer dollars brought to you by the wannabe Dictator himself.
Sadly these kinds of stories are just one offs. It is insane what is happening. Also sad that some people cheer/excuse this banana republic behavior from the government of the United States
Another gang member snatched up by ICE, outside of a church. Without due process, ICE lying is the norm. https://www.thedrinksbusiness.com/2025/06/beloved-oregon-viticulturist-detained-by-ice/ Sotelo-Casas, who founded Novo Start Vineyard Service last year, was detained just outside of St Michael’s Episcopal Church in Newberg, Oregon on the morning Thursday 12 June as he was setting out on his way to work. Although Sotelo-Casas’ family claims that he has been in the US since the 1990s, ICE argues that he arrived in the country illegally in 2006 and that he was convicted for driving under the influence (DUI) in Newberg. However, the district attorney’s office for Yamhill County, where Newberg is located, has found no record of such a conviction. Evidence of speeding tickets was found, though these fines were paid. Despite the conflicting accounts, ICE is reportedly considering Sotelo-Casas for “expedited removal”. The incident has alarmed those in Oregon’s wine sector. Morgen McLaughlin, executive director of the Willamette Valley Wineries Association, expressed her worries over the situation to the drinks business: “We are deeply concerned by the recent detention of Moises, a beloved Willamette Valley business owner, as well as a separate incident involving another individual in our wine community. Vineyard stewards and winery team members – many of whom are immigrants or from immigrant families – are the backbone of Oregon wine, contributing expertise, care, and decades of hard work that have shaped the region’s success.”
Who are the real threats? ICE guys like that are just thugs, and probably a few racists, with Trump's approval to rough people up. They sure as hell don't want to be caught on cameras.

Trump needs to say he deported a million gang bangers, murderers, rapists and drug dealers. He only found a few, so has to get those numbers up by rounding up the hard working illegals who aren't violent, and pose no threat to anyone.
