The driver says, “No problem, sir, I’ll get out.”<br/><br/>The agent refuses, then immediately changes commands again: “I need to see your ID.”<br/><br/>Suddenly, an agent on the passenger side pounds on the window. Then he strikes it with a hard object, clearly threatening to break it.<br/><br/>At the same time, the driver-side agent again demands the ID.<br/><br/>This is not confusion. This is intentional command overload… a tactic used to manufacture “noncompliance” so force can be justified.<br/><br/>ICE’s own training materials explicitly state:<br/><br/>“Noncompliance or refusal to cooperate with officer commands, without fighting back, does NOT violate 18 U.S.C. § 111.”<br/><br/>In plain English: not immediately obeying commands is NOT a crime.<br/><br/>And here’s the key legal issue:<br/><br/>Unless agents have:<br/>• a valid arrest warrant, or<br/>• probable cause that a specific crime has been committed<br/><br/>they cannot:<br/>• use force<br/>• break windows<br/>• issue violent threats<br/>• detain or arrest someone<br/><br/>#ProbableCause <br/>means specific, articulable facts that would make a reasonable officer believe a crime occurred… not vibes, not attitude, not silence, not filming, not asking questions.<br/><br/>Back in the video, the passenger-side agent escalates further, shouting:<br/>“First time I ask you to roll your window down, you do it.”<br/><br/>The driver responds:<br/>“Are you in danger, sir? Are you escalating this?”<br/><br/>The agent replies:<br/>“I don’t know. Hands up.”<br/><br/>Despite the driver repeatedly attempting to comply and hand over ID, agents continue shouting conflicting commands.<br/><br/>At one point, the agent orders the driver to “talk to the original agent”… which is exactly what the driver was doing before the window-smashing threat.<br/><br/>Then the man asks, “Are you feeling unsafe or uneasy?”<br/><br/>The agent responds, “I don’t know, man.” while standing on the passenger side of the car, smirking.<br/><br/>The driver finally says what anyone would say surrounded by armed men:<br/>“How many guns do I have around me? I need you to calm down. I’m asking him to stop banging on my car. Is that too much?”<br/><br/>He even offers… again… to step out of the vehicle.<br/><br/>This is not law enforcement. This is intimidation fishing for an excuse.<br/><br/>No probable cause.<br/>No warrant.<br/>No lawful basis for force.<br/><br/>And yet, the escalation came entirely from the agents.<br/><br/>This video proves something chilling: you can comply, stay calm, ask lawful questions… and still be threatened with violence.<br/><br/>So, the question isn’t “Why didn’t he just comply?”<br/><br/>The question is how many people have already been assaulted under this exact playbook… and how many more will be, before this stops? <br/>#uspol #Ripped<br/><video controls width="100%" class="max-h-[90vh] bg-neutral-300 dark:bg-zinc-700"><source src="https://kolektiva.social/system/media_attachments/files/115/917/163/848/817/152/original/ca036f138bfe565c.mp4"></video><br/> 2026-01-18T17:59:25+01:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs0qch0rntkhdy96z2nrdgmxkjhuqex2jw69vtdcsu0kutmdhwp6pgzypncckgp764vpk64734fvkhr38mruheycn8jj3h4zql4feylamnqwmjcmt8 BREAKING: #ICE agents have, once again, trampled the 4th Amendment… illegally breaking down a door and storming into another family home with assault rifles drawn, while children were inside, detaining 6 people, including a 12-year-old boy, without a warrant.<br/>And it gets worse.<br/><br/>On Thursday, ICE raided a home in St. Paul, #Minnesota, telling residents this was part of a narcotics investigation… not #immigration. But neighbors are saying that’s BS. <br/><br/>A neighbor who had his outdoor camera rolling, says someone delivered a package to the house just minutes before the raid. According to the video, federal agents told the residents there were drugs inside, and if no one claimed the package, they’d take everyone in the house. Not suspicious at all… <br/><br/>And the agents also had no warrant…<br/><br/>After smashing the door, ICE claimed they had a search warrant, but never showed it… even after being asked to see it. They searched every room with rifles drawn, handcuffed all residents, including the 12-year-old boy, and paraded them down the street. Every adult had a valid work permit and state ID, but, agents only left a woman and her infant behind.<br/><br/>And here’s the kicker:<br/><br/>Even though ICE said this was about drugs, not immigration, they still took the 12-year-old boy, transporting him to an immigration center in San Antonio, Texas in less than 24 hours.<br/><br/>And, to make this all even more illegal… A warrant was dropped off THE NEXT DAY, claiming to be from a state court, but:<br/><br/>• It doesn’t match official Ramsey County #warrant formats<br/>• Has no case number or file stamp<br/>• No record of filing exists (though filing can sometimes be delayed)<br/><br/>So, the questions become:<br/><br/>Did ICE falsify a warrant after illegally entering the home? Did they plant drugs to justify this raid? And most importantly… what did #DHS do with a 12-year-old boy they weren’t supposed to touch?<br/><br/>This isn’t law enforcement. This is federal #kidnapping, #trafficking, intimidation, and #terror. <br/><br/>A government agency stormed a home, handcuffed children, and transported a minor across state lines… all without a real warrant at the time of the arrest, or any legal justification. <br/><br/>If this can happen to one family in broad daylight, it can happen to anyone. <br/><br/>The #Constitution, your rights, and your #children mean nothing to them.<br/>#RippedFromX #uspol<br/><video controls width="100%" class="max-h-[90vh] bg-neutral-300 dark:bg-zinc-700"><source src="https://kolektiva.social/system/media_attachments/files/115/917/137/521/314/908/original/a5dccea122c352f9.mp4"></video><br/> 2026-01-18T17:52:43+01:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsrss4trc6smr9zn3kxnz0xkpdr0k5cx00udu590kr6af8cak9dkyszypncckgp764vpk64734fvkhr38mruheycn8jj3h4zql4feylamnqw0enw4v Got ripped off on an online purchase over the holidays for about $44.00 <br/>Sent dispute to bank/visa.<br/><br/>Bank disputes my dispute and rejects.

It’s annual gross profits in the past three years have floated between 3 and 6 times what it used to earn before the avian flu epidemic started — breaking $1 billion for the first time in the company’s history. All of this extra profit is coming from higher selling prices, which have been earning Cal-Maine unprecedented 50-170 percent margins over farm production costs per dozen. Taking Cal-Maine as the “bellwether” for the industry’s largest firms — as people in the egg business do — we can be pretty confident that the other large egg producers are also raking in profits off the relatively small dip in egg production.**<br/><br/>Post covid inflation???

One may protest against evil; it can be exposed and, if need be, prevented by use of force. Evil always carries within itself the germ of its own subversion in that it leaves behind in human beings at least a sense of unease. Against stupidity we are defenseless. Neither protests nor the use of force accomplish anything here; reasons fall on deaf ears; facts that contradict one’s prejudgment simply need not be believed – in such moments the stupid person even becomes critical – and when facts are irrefutable, they are just pushed aside as inconsequential, as incidental. In all this the stupid person, in contrast to the malicious one, is utterly self-satisfied and, being easily irritated, becomes dangerous by going on the attack. For that reason, greater caution is called for when dealing with a stupid person than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.” <br/><br/>— Dietrich Bonhoeffer (murdered in prison by nazi’s)<br/><br/>So, how do we combat it?

We are hardwired, through heuristic mental adaptations, to see the world in black and white terms. <br/><br/>Education and certain experiences teach us that the world really doesn’t work that way. It’s complex. It’s ambiguous. It’s a million shades of gray. <br/><br/>You don’t necessarily get that though through a STEM education. There, most of the time, there really are right and wrong answers to problems — black vs. white. <br/><br/>The liberal arts, to which the study of law belongs, are a different story. Ambiguity thrives and there are no right or wrong answers … only probabilities based on factual context. <br/><br/>Many law students struggle mightily with this concept. You learn quickly in law that there are no right or wrong answers. The talent lies in being able to cogently analyze the strengths and weaknesses in fact patterns and generate probable outcomes. <br/><br/>So, I wrap all the way back around. Lawyers are trained and judged on their ability to resist black and white thinking and generate nuanced probable outcomes. <br/><br/>I practice with a conservative lawyer. And, it’s amazing to see him do his thing in the court room, and then take his tie off and immediately revert back to his default black and white political thinking. <br/><br/>I guess some people just become inured to cognitive dissonance. 2024-09-10T16:27:02+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsdfvlzawymxz7nmvxhfnv3qs2ncdz3p4nx9g5uj8ltxgw045wuazszypncckgp764vpk64734fvkhr38mruheycn8jj3h4zql4feylamnqwrr5uep In tonite’s #debate he best #Harris response to any #trump arguments is:<br/>“Was that English?

Separation of #Church and #State <br/>2. #Freedom of Assembly <br/>3. Pluralism — you know *E Pluribus Unum* (out of the many one) used to be our national motto until the #christofascists that Trump appeals to started chipping away and changed it to “In God We Trust” (if it’s a christian god). <br/>4. Quartering of Soldiers on domestic land<br/>5. Attempts to undermine due process, and<br/>6. Arguably the 22nd amendment’s 2 term limitation as president. <br/><br/>Did I forget some? <br/><br/>MAGA … Make American Great for Authoritarians. 2024-09-07T20:34:15+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsfk3tff4z8hjzp6amk5pfj9v9l36qfffxfyshaga6886f4x9el4ygzypncckgp764vpk64734fvkhr38mruheycn8jj3h4zql4feylamnqwznm9hw In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsfk0u3ghhtst8maggrql3hqvnw4jnakte7yjnjce09qa0730qcz4sle56kv'>nevent1q…56kv</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>We’re watching in real time how every elite family is established. <br/>Theft. 2024-09-05T05:51:13+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs8hpgvmkxdkudd8wv858hd92nu28l7fwfg2n5uwp4jgklqd989hnczypncckgp764vpk64734fvkhr38mruheycn8jj3h4zql4feylamnqw0e543a #OpenAI is being sued on multiple fronts for #copyright infringement.<br/>I don&#39;t know about you, but #lawyers around my neck of the woods call this an *admission.*<br/>When you publicly *admit* the acts that form the basis of the cause of action (here copyright infringement) ... you typically lose.<br/><br/>Hey Sam ... you just lost. #Loser <br/><a href="https://futurism.com/the-byte/openai-copyrighted-material-parliament">https://futurism.com/the-byte/openai-copyrighted-material-parliament</a> 2024-09-04T21:50:18+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqst574wvfd3cl5zgz9hqnsrxtwyev3wjuwfyf0zrdxjkxutq2j69kgzypncckgp764vpk64734fvkhr38mruheycn8jj3h4zql4feylamnqwuxw3hy In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsywuj55a97mzl2gdumx5kgtpxv5h8a4yltf2kyyw5a0wqsmugvvwgk5fa4l'>nevent1q…fa4l</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Of course it&#39;s poor.
