We want to take a moment to express how proud we are of you, America. You have stood up and spoken out every step of the wayβ€”especially when Congress and the media remained silent. When we called for help, you answered.

Operation ICE Ride-Along isn’t going as planned. πŸ”₯

Fox News tagged along with ICE, hoping for an exclusive look at β€œdangerous criminals.” Instead, they got a whole lot of nothing. No threats, no big arrestsβ€”just a community that wasn’t having it. The narrative is falling apart.

Thank you! A U.S. District Judge has approved requests from anonymous federal employees to proceed under pseudonyms in multiple cases against the Trump administration to protect themselves from potential harassment and threats.
