‘A publicity stunt’: activists decry Trump’s immigration raids marketed as entertainment

Just days after being sworn in as Donald Trump’s secretary of homeland security, Kristi Noem, well coiffed and clad in tactical gear, popped up in New York City before dawn with a message for Americans – and her boss, the US president.

“Live this AM from NYC. I’m on it,” Noem wrote on X, the first in a series of social media posts documenting her ride-along with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) agents and officers from other federal agencies as they conducted a raid at a residential building in the Bronx on Tuesday. Hours later, in a piece-to-camera video, she declared the morning’s mission a success: “We are getting the dirtbags off the streets.”

Government-issued pictures were distributed to the media, and federal agencies including Ice, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives (ATF) posted images on X.

No official statistics were issued for the New York raids that day. But the publicity blitz has helped fuel a sense of what Trump’s border “czar”, Tom Homan, vowed would be “shock and awe” from day one.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

They need to get in touch with the 8,000 people deported in the 1st week and tell them it's a stunt.  Liberals still letting emotions overrule reality. :thud:

Look, maybe because the media has worked so hard to turn law enforcement into entertainment, ie Cops, etc., but yeah I find it entertaining when La Migra rounds up illegals, especially the violent felons and throws their asses in jail and then deports them. To quote MGM, that’s entertainment.
