Things are very on edge in right now. There is a huge influx of global news as well as the social media instigators. Locals are trying to root out the outsiders quickly but unfortunately local PD has to shield the agitators. There are anti-protest protestors trying stir up things. A vast majority are just shouting with a few pushing the lines.
ICE is doing random rushes with flash bang,tear gas, and pepper spray/pellets and targeting the more vocal to apprehend.
In another shooting incident ICE abandoned several vehicles that were looted with one having a locked weapons box stolen. (Sh! There is some controversy over all these newly deputized enforcers bringing there own stuff.) The FBI is offering a huge reward for the recovery.
It is purposeful in its execution to overwhelm the system. But locals are protecting their neighborhoods so well ICE agents are terrified and inept. This is only going to get worse. Local PD know these guys are wannabes and are putting real local enforcement at risk too.
There are many stories about the lowbar recruitment and the disorganized mess in the detention centers. And the pretenders taking advantage of the chaos.
As far as the fraud most of the 'discoveries' were made and prosecuted years ago with a white woman at the top of the biggest one. Some new ones this summer prior to ICE Barbie photo ops. Like usual Trump spin false victory for themselves.
I'll try to give a briefing when I can. It's pretty overwhelming in many ways. live long and prosper as best you can. Jacque "Jack of all trades is master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one." ... And thanks for masters in skill for a standard of work to instill.
Terrifying stuff

Is that what you are talking about?
Wherever you live, if that is what it is like there, that SUCKS!!
I hate sounding cryptic or even like a pretender as I share a bit of what is going on.
I know people and people who know people who know more than what is being made known.
Local PD is getting caught in the middle of this escalation of ineptitude and they hate it regardless of personal politics. It's a shitshow they are being thrown into.
What I can say or do is give some references/links that can depict a local perspective rather than the SPIN for the outsiders of all kinds. I can also share my personal experience.
I can only guess at the spin and speed news reaches all of you. But I'm certain most of it has been edited sanitized and coopted.
For a little bit of humor about succeeding or annexation? (you don't need an account to view)
