Hard to overstate how much Hegseth's execution stream mirrors the U.S. military's traditional description of ISIS propaganda: broadcast killings designed to send a message, strike fear and create a social media spectacle. Will almost certainly be repurposed by online terror cells

Reports that ICE agents are being told to “go after anybody” in California are alarming. ICE is violently terrorizing our neighborhoods. House Democrats will continue to demand oversight over this out of control agency. Accountability is coming.

Great message: Respect for human rights and international law are foundations of international peace and order. I fear that those who should get the message won't. But, it remains true nonetheless and their deafness to it is why they are, in the end, enemies of peace.

The US, Israel and Russia don't just fund and amplify the right wing. They also infiltrate and weaponise leftist movements, particularly fringe pro-Palestinian & anti-war groups, using fake radicals to sow division, provoke violence and turn activists into unwitting assets of the states they oppose.
Screenshot of two posts from the social media account Anonymous (@YourAnonCentral).
The first post, dated May 23, states: "Reminder that both Israel and Russia long infiltrated the global pro-Palestine movement and some of the most toxic anti-West accounts you see are people brainwashed by their influence operations or assets directly tied to them. The goal is to dismantle international order." It includes a Palestinian flag emoji followed by a red upside-down triangle emoji.
The second post, dated June 27, 2025, states: "150 pro-Palestine activists got duped by a US born Kremlin agent James 'Fergie' Chambers. He convinced the group to enter a Belgian factory making military gear for Ukraine, smashing computers and damaging vehicles. The activists believed they were disrupting supplies to Israel." Below the text, there is a night photo showing a large group of people gathered outside near a metal chain-link security fence.

These ads go in the same category as brazen, easily disproven lies after ICE killings. It’s not about persuasion. It’s a display of power. They could have passed them off as PAC-funded. They added “paid for by the U.S. government” because they want us to know they can break the law with impunity.
