They slashed your healthcare, hiked your bills, and left you screaming into the void. This isn’t policy; it’s punishment. And millions of Americans are done staying quiet.
These ICE agents are J6ers, Proud Boys and MAGA thugs!
They wear masks because the agent is an undercover asset and they don’t want to reveal his identity. They don’t want to deal with the shame and lifelong ridicule that is coming with their antics!
ICE masks are to hide something else: Their shame.
Racism is killing America. Vote for a racist, get racism. NO ONE elected Trump for economic reasons. It was never about immigration. It was always about racism, white supremacy oppression and control.
Their position on immigration repression has two functions: institutionalization of overt racism and stripping immigrants of the possibility remaining legal. That's it.
How about wearing this "Keep the immigrants, deport the racists" t-shirt in front of racists POS? 🤔 👇
I don’t pre-judge a person if they are Black, Brown, Red, Yellow, White, Green or Purple…I can’t stand Orange; but I didn’t have a problem with orange until the mid-2010’s.
Jan 6ers might have gotten pardoned but no one wants to hire them and get their business to go viral that they employ violent far right insurrectionists.
They’ve already seen what happens when the president orders something and then walks away leaving the foot soldiers to take the fall so they are staying anonymous as much as possible.
They know what they are doing is cruel and unjust and illegal and know that if the justice system can’t stop them, there will be a family member who might come after them or their family so they hide their faces. Many kids of immigrants who are born in the US join the military to show their loyalty to this country so there are family members who are trained to kill just looking for who to take out their revenge when and if their family is unalived while in ICE custody.
Please use the proper term. People are not unalived they are MURDERED. To not saying the proper word it makes the act sound dignified and acceptable, it is not.
Maybe this commenter posts on other sites where murdered is flagged and is just using the term by habit, sort of like unsmart. It's awkward and looks like one is ignorant but censorship is getting really bad now. WAPO is ridiculous, (another flagged word there). They're so bad now that pretty soon the only words not flagged will be "a", "an" and "the". I tie myself in linguistic knots trying to post a comment there that doesn't get rejected immediately. Hence Meidas Touch and goodbye to WAPO. Even with their ridiculous, oops I wrote it again, offer of $2 a month subscription rate.
Especially those kids of immigrants who value our country and what it stands for are far more willing to fight for our (their) rights under the Constitution, vs. the smug republiCRAP kids who just sit at home and do nothing. They feel they're "way too above the rest of us" and are privileged so they shouldn't serve.
These foot soldiers are as complicit as he is. They wrap these so called ‘Town Halls’ in rosy blankets covering the rotted skeletons that THEY MADE with their power hungry greed and reckless abandonment. Trying to put their positive spin on the disasters they created and keep enabling only serves to expose their heartless regard of the people they’re supposed to represent.
What a bunch of monsters they are…Hell is waiting for them!
Another possibility is that they especially don't want to be identified where they have family members. It does seem that some people sign on with ICE because they need the money. Minimal, if any, experience required.
They must love violence. There is no way you can do that to your fellow citizens, for whatever reason , unless you love to hurt people . Not un like Trump
Or unless you don't think of them as "your fellow citizens" because they're a different color or undocumented or speaking another language. Think of how white people treated Black people or Native people for centuries. And how too many men treat women.
They are a combination of Jan 6ers; Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, or other white supremacists; other federal agents like FBI, HSI, etc.; and random recruits who want their bonuses, high salary, and student loans paid off. Most, if not all, would not want to be identified, some out of fear of consequences by others, some out of guilt because they know they are doing the wrong thing. Some are into baby face diapers, not for pandemics, but violence. That's my two cents.
My guess is the ice agents know they are forced to do a horrible thing, and they don't want to be the ones being punished for Trump's stupidity, sins and crimes, so they don't want to be recognized. I would do the same.
Now is our moment—today take action against this harmful government. They are:
• Covering up a pedophile ring.
• Ignoring court orders.
• Spreading corruption.
The poor, the needy, and children are being abused—by our government. Healthcare, already a broken system, was canceled for 13 million. Take to the streets!
We must protest outright crooks and the pedophiles. They will start shooting us. Untrained ICE agents will shoot us. Protest until we go down or we oust these tyrants.
I made 54 protest signs to aid protest groups. I will make many more to share. You will see something different in these signs! Help yourself to this second batch, and share them as far as you can.
Short story about ‘Cohen language’. I was entering my apartment one day. As I opened the door, I heard ‘asshole!’ I thought, Cohen’s on MTN! Love Cohen.
I’m the only one of my small group of acquaintances that can’t keep her mouth shut. No one wants to hear anymore - except for my therapist! I need opinions. Would it do any good to vent to local papers like that the Boston Globe or Nashua Telegraph?
I don’t have transportation to go to protests. I want to hold a sign and scream my damn lungs out! I’m 71 years old, not in spring chicken shape by any means but I have a hell of a lot of fight left. I need a jumping off place and need suggestions!
Someone wants to hear. Look for your local protest groups - even if you can't get to meetings (and someone MIGHT give you a lift) you can Zoom or volunteer to make signs etc. You're not as alone as you think you are.
Ask your local Indivisible Group, or 50501, or any local political group to find you a ride. They'll probably be pleased, especially if you chip in for gas and bring a sign!
Looking forward to reading Revenge. Fearful yet angry about all of the injustices and corruption, but will keep moving forward, attending protests, educating myself and others, reaching out to friends and family with the messages from Michael Cohen and others, working to combat apathy in myself and others. Thank again Michael Cohen for all you are doing to fight for our democracy!
You say to show up at town halls to voice our outrage but the majority of republican senators and representatives aren’t doing town halls. They KNOW it will not go well! They are cowards!!
Do they have local offices? Is there a Republican State Committee office that isn't 20 stories up in a high-rise building? Once campaign season starts, they tend to be more visible and accessible, but in most places that's not till 2026.
And now they’re giving unqualified bounty hunters a $50K bonus in top of salary to hunt down humans, abuse them and then send them to the gulag for nothing more than breathing in the US. Most magas don’t make that amt of money. Imagine who’s lining up to join?
And teachers are working 2jobs, dept of education defunded, people losing healthcare, and npr/pbs shutting down. We know what their priorities are… what are ours?
I don't remember exactly who said that MAGA should be sending in their resumes as trump supposedly was going to be hiring them. I remember thinking at the time: "just what are they going to be hired to do"? Guess I know now.
Michael, the whole damn country should be up in arms over this stupidity in our federal government that will impact us all, particularly the low and middle income population! The ones that sealed their own fate by voting for this felon, and those of many of us that did not vote for this crap!
Donny’s idea of this country winning is…the American public suffers while he sits in his gilded cage. Anyone that thinks Donny goes to the grocery store is nuts. Donny wouldn’t know what a grocery store looked like if it hit in the ass. He has people who shop for him or he has stuff delivered.
Remember, he made the word groceries, and explained to us what it meant. No one knew the word until then . UNTIL HE WAS 79! That tells how "one of us" he is. How everything has been done for him. He once bragged he did not carry money, cause the restaurant owner was just so glad he was there to bring in other customers. You are spot on!
And what’s even more appalling! The felon has the gall to waste our tax dollars on a WH $200 million dollar ballroom! This is absolutely a kick in the face to the American tax payers!
People flock to be around the trappings of success. Even if success was due to grifting. In their minds, if he can do it, they have a chance. Michael Cohen has explained their mindset because he used to be one of them
Democrats will probably, if there’s a free and fair election in 18 months, flip the house. But the Senate and executive branch will still be republicans and we have to figure out a way to deal with that.
I love how the congressman gaslights the audience. Question was about masked ice agents picking up non criminals and he blamed Biden ( won’t this ever get old?) and touted the immigration policies. Never addressed the issue of masked armed people roaming the streets. 🤬Many in crowd saw thru it… but will it matter by midterms when they’ve solidified power and made elections invalid like in Russia?
There is an aspect of tariffs that nobody is talking about: by imposing tariffs on countries rather than categories of goods, the companies in the higher tariffed countries are not able to compete anymore in the U.S. market. And if there is one thing that drives prices up, it’s the absence of competition.
And don’t believe the repatriation of manufacturing jobs narrative: many products, like specialized machinery and medical devices were never produced in the U.S. and won’t be because the workforce with the required skills is not here.
I wish I could contribute but at 77 I'm still helping to support 2 children....on a very low pension. And when I'm gone they will have no one....daughters kids 1 boy and 1 girl both doing their masters....so it will still be some time before they can help their Mom. My Son and his girlfriend both on disability.....they will squeese through this....I've taught them enough....in survival mode....but I'm an activist....still....and I do what I can with words.....nolonger able to volunteer as I spent since the mid 80's volunteering to help others....my body won't allow me to stand or walk for very long so I do what I can.....I spread your messages, I follow Charlie Angus because he has understanding and compassion for Native People....and I spread the truth....far and wide....love you all for doing what you do....many hugs
They are on vacation from Congress after diverting $900 million for the new luxury jet and screwing the armed forces out of housing improvements. Not to mention the gross plan to build a gaudy ballroom on the east wing of the “people’s” house!
Worse yet, I think they plan to tear down the East Wing. I read a really good article about the ballroom. I have searched for it, it was on someone's substack, but I must have deleted it. What I remember is about the question of getting donations to build it. Who will be making these donations? Do we really want the Saudi's to contribute? It questioned whether all the necessary permissions had been received? It talked about tearing down American history.
I have an answer to the question in the video as to why Ice agents are covering their faces. It’s either:
A) The ICE agents are Jan 6-ers; or
B). They don’t want to be identified when the U.S. conducts their own version of the Nuremberg Trials.
These ICE agents are J6ers, Proud Boys and MAGA thugs!
They wear masks because the agent is an undercover asset and they don’t want to reveal his identity. They don’t want to deal with the shame and lifelong ridicule that is coming with their antics!

Orange is the color of dog shit when it has extreme diarreha
Trump is Dog Shit
How insulting to the dog shit!
Coackroach shit?.......Rat shit....????.....is that orange????
Good one Gloria! Ha
Good one Gloria! Ha
Completely agree!
Love this, right on the money!
Just looked at the T-shirt! It's great--the color BLUE would be the most appropriate! (My opinion, anyway!)
Yes BLUE rules!
🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷
Bingo! Red is for embarrassment--which all those republiCRAPS should be for supporting the Bimbo!
Don’t forget D. All of the above.
Jan 6ers might have gotten pardoned but no one wants to hire them and get their business to go viral that they employ violent far right insurrectionists.

What a bunch of monsters they are…Hell is waiting for them!
Even the Gestapo didn’t wear masks.
That's true, but the KKK did. I think when people know others don't approve, they hide.
Wow! I'm going to use that excellent comment if you don't mind
Another possibility is that they especially don't want to be identified where they have family members. It does seem that some people sign on with ICE because they need the money. Minimal, if any, experience required.
The only experience they need is how to terrify and beat people up.
Thats how they treat their wives and children at home......before they go out and rape underage girls.
They must love violence. There is no way you can do that to your fellow citizens, for whatever reason , unless you love to hurt people . Not un like Trump
Or unless you don't think of them as "your fellow citizens" because they're a different color or undocumented or speaking another language. Think of how white people treated Black people or Native people for centuries. And how too many men treat women.
Very good point.
Anyone backing what ztrumo os doing, isnt a fellow citizen to me. I don't care of they are green
And grossly overpaid, no matter what!
Both
BINGO, GLORIA! And there definitely needs to be America''s version of the Nuremberg Trials--and starting NOW.
One more possibility, they know what they are doing is wrong and don’t want anyone to know who they are.
They are a combination of Jan 6ers; Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, or other white supremacists; other federal agents like FBI, HSI, etc.; and random recruits who want their bonuses, high salary, and student loans paid off. Most, if not all, would not want to be identified, some out of fear of consequences by others, some out of guilt because they know they are doing the wrong thing. Some are into baby face diapers, not for pandemics, but violence. That's my two cents.
They’re oath keepers and proud boys. The brown coats for this Nazi regime!
Both.
Or, they don't want to be shunned by society when they go back to their families and communities!
My guess is the ice agents know they are forced to do a horrible thing, and they don't want to be the ones being punished for Trump's stupidity, sins and crimes, so they don't want to be recognized. I would do the same.
I wouldn’t work for them.
Both!

Typical of MAGA Republicans

Sure, write to the papers, but be sure to reference something they printed. Can’t hurt. 👹 Stay Fierce 👹
Been fierce all my life. At my age all filters left
Someone wants to hear. Look for your local protest groups - even if you can't get to meetings (and someone MIGHT give you a lift) you can Zoom or volunteer to make signs etc. You're not as alone as you think you are.
(Sorry, that last sounded sinister!)
No it didn’t. With Satan calling the shots, (maybe one will hit the right spot!), everything is sinister!
Ask your local Indivisible Group, or 50501, or any local political group to find you a ride. They'll probably be pleased, especially if you chip in for gas and bring a sign!
Supporting your local Democratic candidates is a great start. Volunteer for them.
I like when they told hex wasn’t a good fit the people he served and he should quit

Americans are paying import taxes because a made up emergency. Costs are up on everything and tRUMP waits and lies and people die.
Well said! ❤️💩💩💩
You say to show up at town halls to voice our outrage but the majority of republican senators and representatives aren’t doing town halls. They KNOW it will not go well! They are cowards!!
It just leaves some great Dems to lead the town halls instead!

That's the truth. The answers are snarky. Or no answers at all. Are they all cowards? I dont think so. I think they want this.
I saw some town halls that did not have the Congress person there. They had a card board cut out of the representative!
And now they’re giving unqualified bounty hunters a $50K bonus in top of salary to hunt down humans, abuse them and then send them to the gulag for nothing more than breathing in the US. Most magas don’t make that amt of money. Imagine who’s lining up to join?

I love how you write, Michael Cohen...you hsve a brilliant mind♡
KUDOS TO YOU MR COHEN!!
And what’s even more appalling! The felon has the gall to waste our tax dollars on a WH $200 million dollar ballroom! This is absolutely a kick in the face to the American tax payers!
Totally agree..while we’re struggling with tariffs he’s building a ball room…Maybe a drone will just happen to fly by…👏🏻
We can only hope……🕊️
Not sure what kind of idiot would want to go to tRUMP's ballroom???
People flock to be around the trappings of success. Even if success was due to grifting. In their minds, if he can do it, they have a chance. Michael Cohen has explained their mindset because he used to be one of them
🍊💩🫏kissers!
It’s a tiny closet in the capitol building where the Rs have to leave theirs👹
And his destruction of the rose garden!
Democrats will probably, if there’s a free and fair election in 18 months, flip the house. But the Senate and executive branch will still be republicans and we have to figure out a way to deal with that.
Why do supposedly educated senators n house reps continue to kiss that 🍊💩🫏?????? They are hurting n destroying America!
202 225 3121 or 202 224 3121
Call any member of congress!
Ask WTF they are doing for we the people!
I love how the congressman gaslights the audience. Question was about masked ice agents picking up non criminals and he blamed Biden ( won’t this ever get old?) and touted the immigration policies.

My fear iscyhat ppl forget ..its,a long time between now and next November...
and the traitors, will have lots of dirty tricks planned to 😕
GOP= GUARDIANS OF PEDOPHILES, CONVICTED FELONS, SEX OFFENDERS AND LIARS!!!
What more do we THE PEOPLE need to vote these hacks and liars out?!!
You didn't put down TRAITORS...trump and his fascist regime is full of traitors in addition to all that you've wrotten.
💯 agreed!
