    U.S. Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Oregon, posted on X, urging people to keep any protests of the Trump administration peaceful.

    “Trump wants to generate riots. Don’t take the bait,” he wrote.

    Queue for your execution in an orderly fashion. Otherwise, the Nazis will make you look bad on TV

    We know ICE is a bunch of fucking liars. Why even report what they say?

    The DHS is almost certainly lying

    While it’s possible but unlikely to fire a single shot and wound two people with it, to do so against a vehicle “weaponized” against the agent the two occupants would need to be in the front and back seats of the vehicle on the same side.

    Sooo, three in two days now?

    Will this perhaps wake the US population up about what is happening? Maybe this will get them to permanently protest until that Cheeto is gone?
