Don Trump's #whiteNationalist mercenary #secretPolice army violently arrested a US citizen and filmed it ‘like a documentary’
> The agency known as DHS illegitimately formed from the Patriot Act based upon multiple lies and yet permitted to continue its antipublic atrocities, made social media posts out of a protester’s arrest at gunpoint. Christian Cerna speaks out about the lengthy prosecution that derailed his life... Christian Cerna, 28, was driving with his partner and their two young children through Los Angeles, when two vehicles rammed his car and a group of men jumped out and trained their guns on them... It was 11 June 2025, and as Cerna exited his vehicle with his hands raised, he realized the masked men weren’t street criminals as he initially feared. They were Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents... Cerna, a carpenter, is a US citizen and southern California native. But ICE was targeting him after a border agent reported that Cerna had “assaulted” him during a rowdy anti-ICE protest days earlier. The officers arresting Cerna detonated flash-bang grenades and pointed assault rifles at his car, with his infant and toddler inside...

"He had wild hair and wore jeans. He was #American and #Jewish. He had a #camera.
That was enough to trigger #surveillance by the notorious #secretpolice of #communist #Romania, the #Securitate.
Now, 41 years after #photojournalist #EdwardSerotta boldly stepped behind the #IronCurtain, we can see just how obsessed the #Romanians were with him, thanks to a short #documentary by renowned #Romanian #director #RaduJude and #historian #AdrianCioflâncă.
“Plan contraplan/Shot Reverse Shot,” which had its world premiere at the #Berlinale international #film festival last month, gives equal time to #Serotta’s reminiscences about Romania in the 1980s, and to the Securitate’s observations of him."

#Marine Detained in #Minneapolis Says Feds Copied His Phone Without a Warrant
By Austin Campbell, February 12, 2026
"At first, #StevenSaari said, federal #immigration agents seemed to think he was one of them.
"Saari, a Marine Corps combat veteran who served in Iraq and Afghanistan, went to the scene of #AlexPretti’s killing in #Minneapolis less than an hour after federal agents fired the fatal shots. He was wearing his Marine camouflage and carrying a lawfully owned 9mm Glock handgun on his right hip, as he does every day, he told The Intercept. Agents on the scene 'thought I was undercover,' Saari said. 'They kept asking what agency I was with.'
"When Saari told them he was not with any agency, their demeanor shifted. Federal immigration agents soon aimed M4-style rifles at his head, footage reviewed by The Intercept shows, their fingers on the trigger less than a minute’s walk away from where Pretti was killed.
'More and more #BorderPatrol and ICE agents gathered around me,' Saari said. 'Then they moved in with rifles and handguns drawn.'"The encounter raises questions about how federal agents assessed threats, used force, and made arrest decisions in the immediate aftermath of Pretti’s killing. In Saari’s case, he and his attorney told The Intercept, federal agents took scans and samples of his biometric data and made a copy of his phone — without obtaining a warrant."

#ICE is cracking down on #USCitizen #protesters with charges, tracking
February 10, 2026
A Reuters analysis found that the Trump administration has charged at least 655 people with assaulting a federal officer or impeding law enforcement operations since launching a series of city‑focused crackdowns last summer. The government has charged more people with breaking that law over the past 12 months than it did after Trump supporters besieged the U.S. Capitol in 2021. Ryan Brooks reports.

There's a whole thread here that's important. This didn't start, _even for white people_, with Good and Pretti. This goes into how it's been going long and how it's come together.

This is about my friends' son. Wow... Just wow... I know this kid and it just breaks my heart.
Some US citizens in #Maine are carrying passports, fearing #ICE detention
Some Mainers of color say they’re afraid to leave their homes and worry about their children. One man says he was racially profiled.
by Salomé Cloteaux, Morgan Womack, and Dana Richie
January 28, 2026"Cooper George was doing what other 13-year-old boys do when they’re home alone: he played video games.
Then, his friend texted in a group chat saying Immigration and Customs Enforcement activity was ramping up.
It was Jan. 12, a week before a surge that federal agents have dubbed 'Operation Catch of the Day' began in Maine.
George knew that ICE officers had been scoping out some places near his home in Westbrook. But if they were increasing their operations, did that mean they were going door to door? Were they going to come to his house?
He immediately stepped away from his screen and rummaged through his bag to look for his passport.
George has been carrying proof of his U.S. citizenship, like his passport or birth certificate, for about a year now, ever since he heard about ICE agents showing up in schools last spring.
He’s afraid he could be arrested because he’s mixed race. He’d seen news reports in other states of other U.S. citizens of color who said they had been stopped or detained by immigration officers.
Since President Donald Trump retook office and announced plans to crack down on illegal immigration, people of color have said they anticipate being stopped by federal agents.
A Supreme Court ruling in September cleared the way for immigration agents to stop people based on their race, language, job or location.
Federal officials say they’ve arrested more than 200 people so far in Maine and contend that they’re focused on detaining people with criminal records and illegal immigration statuses.
But family members, immigrant advocates and local officials have said that many of those detained so far are either in the country legally or haven’t committed any crimes.
Some citizens, like George, have started carrying proof of citizenship on them in an effort to prevent arrest if they are approached.
But this one afternoon, he couldn’t find his passport."

Since President Donald Trump retook office and announced plans to crack down on illegal immigration, people of color have said they anticipate being stopped by federal agents.
A Supreme Court ruling in September cleared the way for immigration agents to stop people based on their race, language, job or location.
Federal officials say they’ve arrested more than 200 people so far in Maine and contend that they’re focused on detaining people with criminal records and illegal immigration statuses.
But family members, immigrant advocates and local officials have said that many of those detained so far are either in the country legally or haven’t committed any crimes.
Some citizens, like George, have started carrying proof of citizenship on them in an effort to prevent arrest if they are approached.
But this one afternoon, he couldn’t find his passport."

This is about my friends' son. Wow... Just wow... I know this kid and it just breaks my heart.
Some US citizens in #Maine are carrying passports, fearing #ICE detention
Some Mainers of color say they’re afraid to leave their homes and worry about their children. One man says he was racially profiled.
by Salomé Cloteaux, Morgan Womack, and Dana Richie
January 28, 2026"Cooper George was doing what other 13-year-old boys do when they’re home alone: he played video games.
Then, his friend texted in a group chat saying Immigration and Customs Enforcement activity was ramping up.
It was Jan. 12, a week before a surge that federal agents have dubbed 'Operation Catch of the Day' began in Maine.
George knew that ICE officers had been scoping out some places near his home in Westbrook. But if they were increasing their operations, did that mean they were going door to door? Were they going to come to his house?
He immediately stepped away from his screen and rummaged through his bag to look for his passport.

"Until those mean #Minnesotans and scummy liberals start being nice to my secret police force, the #murders, beautiful #beatings and lovely tear-gassing will continue ... but in a more secret fashion, right Stephen Miller?" ~ probably President #Trump on January 27, 2026.

An in-depth article by Garrett Graff about how ICE became the presidential secret police.
Which, among others, now occupies Minnesota with '3,000 ICE officers and CBP agents — a number that dwarfs the ten largest local and state police agencies there combined.
It’s an insane use of federal resources.' Resulting in 'scenes from the Global War on Terror transplanted from Kabul or Baghdad to Minnesota.'
