WOW. I mentioned AND used photos from these early February C-130 flights in my @rollingstone.com story last fall about the Coast Guard using search-and-rescue planes for ICE transfers. Had no idea the misuse of resources I suggested had already happened. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

How is it possible that Kristi Noem still has this job. Imagine if you’re a family member or a shipmate of this guardsman. www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...

The average American has no appreciation for how vulnerable the country is, in so many ways, simply because of the massive diversion of resources.

The RS share image above shows the C-130 in question, reg. no. 2008, on Feb. 9, 2025, released by USCG the same day. That plane flew ICE trips out of San Diego on Feb. 5, Feb. 8 and Feb. 9. My question is: Did Kristi Noem insist these flights move forward just to get these propaganda shots?
