ICE murdered two people in less than a week. Claimed they were “ramming their vehicle”. They said the same about Marimar Martinez who they shot FIVE times. She survived. Went to court to get the body cam footage released. Proved them wrong. Every shooting since they’ve left no survivors:
The Preschool Teaching Assistant Shot by Border Patrol, Then Called a “Domestic Terrorist”

Wow, a lightning bolt ⚡ needs to come down & strike Linda "A1" McMahon. As a top exec of the WWF in the late 80s-early 90s, McMahon is accused of covering up the *grooming & sexual abuse of minor boys* by WWF employees (case in discovery phase). Covered by @davidbix.com (2025): 🧾 t2m.co/jn1x0vNR
