A procedure called “macho mouth” is popular among men in the Trump administration. It’s an injection at 2 points on the lower lip to broaden it. I have seen it on Hegseth, Rubio, Duffy, and this guy (who apparently has been recently refreshed).

in trying to understand what makes ICE and CBP so dangerous right now, it is tempting to imagine some new lack of training or experience or professionalism—and not grapple with the truth that a white nationalist movement has put more power and force behind their existing mission

"This Court has listened carefully to the reasons given by Öztürk’s captors for masking-up and has heard the same reasons advanced by ... ICE. It rejects this testimony as disingenuous, squalid and dishonorable. ICE goes masked for a single reason—to terrorize Americans into quiescence."
