27. Just watched 3 videos of ICE men trying to intimidate citizens with "You are interfering with our investigation' crap

Jan 17

when those citizens were LAWFULLY videoing ICE from a safe distance and NOT interfering. All kinds of threats, intimidation (with guns in hand) and trying to instill fear into what will happen to such citizens and their families. No lie, no threat, is too vile for these ICE men to use. Likely most are too ignorant to even know they are repeating fantasy propaganda from Noem and the Nazi guy cos player. We found out a lot of them are basically illiterate and unemployable in modern society.

But Trump the mob, a lot of very wealthy people, banks, and just about any GOP office holder in the nation, is doing everything and anything to subvert investigation into the many violations of laws governing financial transactions. The Epstein web has many, many flies entangled

The rest of the information being withheld, IN VIOLATION OF THE LAW TO RELEASE ALL THE FILES, must be amazingly damaging to just about anyone with R affiliations who has been wielding power in the US for decades. All the back room deals, all the 'we'll give you this if you help us hide that' must be barely holding up the foundation of government/banking industry operations.

And we STILL don't know who paid off Kavanaugh's rather copious debts so he would appear squeaky clean for his confirmation hearing farce.

They are willing to trigger an actual civil shooting war to distract and dissuade people from wanting information.

Kudos to Wyden and the rest of the brave souls digging to expose the truth. May their tribe increase and prevail.
