my guess is, he's been using this "takeover" narrative to use it as leverage to secure the ability to send the military there, like the last paragraph states.

except we have a small presence there that was much larger but drawn down over the years for some reason. I have no doubt we could legitimately increase it again, with their blessing being partners in NATO._____________________________________SIGNATURE________________________________________________

So, in case anyone was wondering just how nazi-ish this regime is, just look at the Department of Homeland Security's own twitter page. They have an ICE recruiting post that shows a join ice link, along with an audio of a song called "We'll Have Our Home Again". A post civil war KKK anthem.

after watching all the videos of all the ice chaos going on, I truly believe this is exactly how the trump admin wants this to play out. They are just waiting for one protestor to open fire and BANG, martial law.

I really wish the public response was to just disappear from the streets. Meet ICE with silence instead of giving them what trump wants.
I think we are heading toward more Rittenhouse situations where MAGA idiots try to play ICE and start shooting protestors on their own.Post edited by Gern Blansten onRemember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)

AltNatParkService adbook postWe’ve had many people asking two questions. Why are federal agents using personal devices to record interactions? And why are federal agents sitting near peaceful protests simply recording people?
Federal agents have deliberately taken a different approach and it is deeply concerning. Instead of using agency-issued body cameras, which are required by policy, agents are increasingly recording peaceful protesters with personal devices such as cell phones, GoPros, and other consumer-grade cameras. This is not accidental. Body-worn cameras are governed by strict rules footage is automatically logged, retained, audited, and far more difficult to delete, alter, or selectively release. Personal devices do not carry those safeguards.
By using phones and GoPros, agents sidestep transparency requirements and avoid automatic ingestion into official DHS evidence and records systems. This allows footage to exist outside normal oversight, with no clear chain of custody, no guaranteed retention rules, and no accountability for how (or whether) that data is preserved, edited, shared, or destroyed. That represents a clear departure from established policy and a serious breakdown of public trust.
We have already seen how selective recording can shape the narrative. In the case of Renee Good, Vance released personal footage from the ICE agent involved. Had this been comprehensive body-camera footage, it would have provided a fuller and more revealing account of the incident. Instead, the public was shown a partial version.
At the same time, this behavior serves another purpose and that’s intimidation. Recording peaceful protesters with personal cameras is not about professionalism, safety, or lawful documentation. It functions as a psychological tactic meant to chill speech, discourage lawful assembly, and remind people they are being watched. Law enforcement officers are trained to act with restraint and professionalism. Pointing personal cameras at civilians engaged in peaceful protest is the opposite of that standard.
This is not normal procedure, this is not transparent policing, and it is not compatible with democratic norms. When agents abandon required body cameras in favor of unregulated personal surveillance, it raises serious concerns about efforts to control the narrative, evade oversight, and intimidate the public rather than uphold the law.Post edited by mickeyrat on_____________________________________SIGNATURE________________________________________________

No, but they are Gestapo like tactics. It’s not only about intimidation but also data gathering, and they’re doing a shit ton of data gathering. Who’s helping them?

This is why, and under false pretenses, I might add. Herr Pigseth ordering it up, Frauline Bondage and Herr Ca$h executing orders. Fuck the whistleblowers, eh?In a first-person account published last month, Natanson described herself as the Post’s “federal government whisperer”, and said she would receive calls day and night from “federal workers who wanted to tell me how President Donald Trump was rewriting their workplace policies, firing their colleagues or transforming their agency’s missions”.
“It’s been brutal,” the article’s headline said.
Natanson said her work had led to 1,169 new sources, “all current or former federal employees who decided to trust me with their stories”. She said she learned information “people inside government agencies weren’t supposed to tell me”, saying that the intensity of the work nearly “broke” her.
The federal investigation into Perez-Lugones, the Post said, involved documents found in his lunchbox and his basement, according to an FBI affidavit. The criminal complaint against him does not accuse him of leaking classified information, the newspaper said.
