LIKE TRUMP/MILLER, ALL ICE AGENTS ARE LOSERS! Many are scared racists, White Nationalist ”Patriot Front, KKK, Proud Boys, Boogaloo Boys, Neo-NAZIS; too full of Trump’s fear/hate/lies to know that THEY’re the true criminals, NOT the innocent families they destroy. Some are just soulless opportunists.

The two ICE agents who murdered a civilian in Biddeford, Maine today. Let's make them famous.

Well, I'm just confused.Trump says the whole election system is rigged. The republicans won everything. The House, Senate, and the White House. Yep. Confused.
