" ICE agents are, simply put, fucking clowns. According to The Atlantic, they receive 47 days of training - in honor of Trump, the 47th president, naturally. Many of them, also, can barely read or write, apparently. The ones I spent the weekend following around didn't even have proper uniforms, with some wearing sneakers. In Minnesota. In January. These dipshits are also wearing camo in the snow. They clearly do not have any training when it comes to their own weapons either. Multiple times over the last few days, I watched officers fire pepper spray balls at the feet of protestors barely a few inches away from them. These weapons are basically paintball guns full of concentrated pepper spray. So when they hit a target, they explode into the air. Which meant ICE agents regularly ended up poisoning themselves with their own weapons. I also watched two agents ask each other if a canister they were about to fire at the crowd was tear gas or a stun grenade. (It ended up being a stun grenade that then ignited the tear gas they had already shot at us, which started a fire in the street that a protestor had to help them put out.) "

" 3 Prosecutors Quit After Push to Investigate ICE Shooting Victim’s Widow Joseph H. Thompson, a career federal prosecutor who was the acting U.S. attorney for Minnesota last year, quit after the Justice Department sought to examine the woman’s supposed ties to activist groups."

the federal government is actively trying to smear the widow of someone killed by one of its agents

there is absolutely no defense for this

"Today at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, a woman tried to drive down the street where a protest had broken out in front of a home ICE was raiding, saying she had a doctor apt to get to. ICE agents busted out her windows, cut off her seatbelt, and pulled her out before arresting her."

watch the video to see how they treated this woman

I dont know…Could just be the algorithm pumping this one up. This requires context and critical thinking beyond what we can see in the footage

Stay frothing mad. Keep watching and commenting.

1/13/2026 7:07:22 PM

what’s your enlightened answer if the video was filmed by someone you follow?

bonus points for not using AI for your response

The media and political powers have yet again tricked me into posting on the wolf web.

1/13/2026 7:59:08 PM

^^ Would say that's about 107th on the list.

If you're going to actively consume any content like that:

- What happened before, say 10 minutes? 20 minutes?
- Is anything edited out? What's outside the frame?
- Why was this interaction selected to air? Given the number of ICE officers and prevalence of videos what about it made someone what to post it?
- What is her story?
- What is the officers story?
- Was there reason to suspect she was involved in something else in the area and it was a case of mistaken identity on the part of the officers?
- Was there any reason to suspect she was guilty or involved in some other violent crime in the area?


When was the last time you cared enough to ask any questions on the content?

1/13/2026 8:57:15 PM

true truth tellers love to give the benefit of the doubt to ICE/agents of our current federal government

they also love to Just Ask Questions that are clearly answered from context clues in videos that have been posted

we just don’t understand because we aren’t on their level

You know, I never really thought of that. That is enlightening and changes the way I'll see the world.

" O’Keefe was put into another vehicle with three agents. She says they started taunting and mocking her, and called her ugly. “The ICE agent who had pepper sprayed into the vents of my car said ‘you guys gotta stop obstructing us, that’s why that lesbian b—— is dead,’ verbatim, speaking of Renee Good. Which filled me with absolute rage and shock that you could say that to one of her neighbors,” she said."

Actually making me legitimately angry they’re not charging the Good shooter. Completely outrageous

1/14/2026 3:21:33 PM

Cops are cops.

1/14/2026 3:22:13 PM

I mean, these guys aren't even cops. They don't even have the requirements and training that cops have.

[Edited on January 14, 2026 at 4:05 PM. Reason : and it's my understanding they get paid much more]

1/14/2026 3:55:53 PM

I wouldn’t trust these guys to enforce any laws. I guarantee you, if you ask them any question at all about immigration law, they wouldn’t be able to tell you. It’s just shameful.

So the government is holding the tribal members hostage?
