Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal warns ICE: "No law enforcement professional wears a mask... Those that come into our communities wearing a mask to commit crime... You getting arrested". "Fake wannabe law enforcement... The criminal in the WH will not be able to keep you from going to jail".

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

Apparently people On Here are oblivious to ways HJC, Oversight, & others have been hammering on Epstein consistently. But this, from @wyden.senate.gov, is one even I haven't given due attention. Bessent is withholding financial docs abt who FUNDED Epstein. www.finance.senate.gov/imo/media/do...
I write to follow up regarding your failure to cooperate with my existing investigation
related to the financing of Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking network. As you are aware, on March
11, 2025 I sent a request to the agencies you lead for a host of documents in your possession that
would shed light on hundreds of millions of dollars in payments to Epstein by several ultrawealthy individuals, including billionaire financier Leon Black.1
 In light of recent developments,
I am deeply concerned that the Trump Administration may be withholding these documents to
prevent exposure of President Trump’s own ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
As you are aware, my original request on March 11th included new information from my
investigation highlighting how $170 million in payments from Black and his associates to
Epstein were used to finance Epstein’s trafficking activities. For example, I provided you with a
copy of a settlement agreement Black signed with the U.S. Virgin Islands Attorney General acknowledging that “Jeffrey Epstein used the money Black paid him to partially fund his
operations in the Virgin Islands.”2
 The request also detailed how the Treasury Department’s
Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) has already compiled this information, a
portion of which has been reviewed in camera by my investigative staff at the Senate Finance
Committee and that of Committee Chairman Senator Mike Crapo. During the first Trump
Administration, as with Administrations before that, Treasury regularly produced these sorts of
documents to Congress. However, although the Treasury Department recently acknowledged it
possesses the records I requested in an April 30th letter, it refused to provide copies of the
documents to my office for further analysis.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

We need to start pushing back—legally If they’re masked, unmarked, and flashing Amazon gear, report it for what it is: an attempted kidnapping by law enforcement impersonators. 🎥 Record. 📍 Share location. 📞 Call the police. “ICE vest” is not an ID.

I don’t think people should engage in violence and vandalism and I don’t think federal agents should provoke people to engage in violence and vandalism. Too many law enforcement officers sworn to protect and serve now look and act like they are in Fallujah.

MAGA has been very open that it wants to purge the United States, they are systematically starting the process, ICE is overrun by white supremacist groups and criminal elements. This is the groundwork for a larger extermination campaign later on.

All those ridiculous men for how many “illegal” migrants? They should be ashamed of themselves. But like they say, where there’s no sense there’s no feeling. And those bastards have to wear masks because they are frightened of being recognised. How brave of them.
