Yes, it's right there in the article.
I'm not seeing anywhere in the article where they identify someone calling ICE.
Zeneyda Barrera, 18, originally from Nicaragua, was arrested by Lynn police after a neighbor complained about a noise disturbance around 4:30 a.m. on Monday.
I'm sure you're smart enough to guess who called ICE.
Get in the gestapo's way every chance you get.
18 year old girl, legal citizen, pushes her 12 year old brother. No injuries.
ICE takes her from Lynn, MA to Cumberland county, ME, and she's under threat of deportation?
Deportation to where??
This isn't America. This is beyond alarming.
This isn't America.
But it is. And it's just getting started!
... legal citizen, ...
Legal status. Which I am sure they're talking about revoking because she's been "charged with a crime."
That is the plan. Even for people who are in the US legally, just charge them with a crime, and that legal status can be pulled and they can be deported. Maybe even to Gitmo in the near future.
ICE is Gestapo.
Only charged? Not convicted yeah? Wow.
ICE is Gestapo.
More Arab and Latino Americans voted for Donald Trump than have ever voted for any Republican candidate before in US history. The Republican youth vote was higher in this past election than it ever has been before, the Democratic youth vote was lower in this pas election than it ever has been before. The Far Left told us they weren't going to vote for "Genocide Joe", and Democrat youth didn't show up to vote.
By the way, some Russians (if not most of them) are also voted for Trump. They escaped fascist dictatorship only to make a fascist dictatorship "at home" (in the US).
I think, people from (toxic) collectivistic cultures are mostly uneducated and they don't realise what trauma/abuse did to them when they lived in their authoritarian (or democratic but poor and corrupt af) home country. Add do this a propaganda that is aimed, among other things, at Russians themselves abroad, that people among their acquaintances/social networks often spread it as word of mouth. They are easily deceived. And as the result, they continue to vote for such bastards who are capable of primitively manipulating people, even in democratic elections.
I don't justify them, but I would not blame voters (although people should be held personally responsible for their actions and learn to think for themselves). In working democracy with respected rule of law though, there would be a way to remove those like Trump from office almost immediately or check the votes for possible manipulation. Look, how they did it in Romania recently:
- "Romanian presidential elections cancelled by constitutional court" - https://www.euractiv.com/section/politics/news/romanian-presidential-elections-canceled-by-constitutional-court/
- "EU investigates TikTok over alleged Russian meddling in Romanian vote" - https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cm2v13nz202o
If Trump became president and the country immediately collapsed, then the question arises whether checks and balances were fair before.

There's heavy propaganda and misinformation in the Hispanic community about illegal immigrants. They hate people from South America and they believe that asylum seekers are getting thousands of dollars a week in food and housing assistance as well as direct payments. My Mexican coworker was telling me he saw a guy bragging about it on YouTube around the time of the election. There was recently a viral post claiming you could get $750 if you turned in an illegal, which isn't true.
Saw a guy bragging on YouTube and didn't even stop to consider that the dude was just full of bullshit?
God damn, we've lost all ability to think critically.
which isn’t true
...yet.
Why pay for something that deranged right wingers would happily do for free?
Just claim that you'll pay them, and then don't. They love it every time Trump pulls that. That's what makes him a good businessman don'tcha know
They'll just make it illegal not to
I've had this discussion plenty of times here on lemmy. They didn't want genocide Joe, so they got turbo genocide Donnie. They somehow didn't realize that "no genocide" wasn't on the menu, even not voting was making a choice.
Well, consequences haven't waited long.
Some guy was on here within the last week talking how about great president De La Cruz would be. As if her votes were more than a rounding error for either of the two major parties.
Yes, but she was just a legal resident, not a citizen. So straight to the concentration camp. Along with all the citizens. Oops.
The Far Left told us they weren't going to vote for "Genocide Joe", and Democrat youth didn't show up to vote.
BluEmAgA fucks post election: "Well AcKSHuLly, we were only a small voice, we couldn't have thrown the election, everyone knows our speech can exist in a vacuum and not have any effect on the lurkers on any other platform."
I love that you think the people who didn't drink the Kool aid are the cultists.
The stupidity of this election was off an scale. Shows how much dumb propaganda got spewed through X, Facebook, etc.
X, Facebook, etc.
Don't forget all that bLuEmAGa, genocide joe, a voTe foR HaRRis iS a VoTe FoR GenOCiDe crap was even spilling on the Fediverse even
I dunno what you're upset about. You're getting the genocide and immigration crackdowns you voted for even though your preferred candidate didn't win.
You're even copying Trump's rhetoric here in blaming the left, who has almost zero representation in government, for all the problems you see in the government.
Calling them "the left" is their imagination. They aren't the left, they are by all measures a flavor of auth-right. They require a strict obedience with dogma that cannot be questioned.
Gotta watch those dangerous Latinas who push. What if they pushed the president? WHAT IF THEY PUSHED THE CONSTUTION?!?
WTF
