Israel has killed 52 Palestinians since dawn, as the UN officially declares a full-blown famine in Gaza that threatens to starve more than half-a-million people. New reports highlight the extent of torture, famine, and medical shortages—leading to painful surgeries without anesthetic—in the Gaza Strip. Hamas heads to Doha, signalling its continued willingness to Gaza on the same day Netanyahu says he will “take over Gaza” The State Department plans to ramp up surveillance of visa seekers. ICE plans to spend millions on gilded SUVs bearing the phrase “DEFEND THE HOMELAND.” Former Pakistani PM Imran Khan gets bail on the same day his niece is abducted. The FBI raids the home and office of John Bolton, former national security adviser in Trump’s first administration.

ICE gets new cars

Which they will proceed to never use because the terror of "oh shit is THAT the black SUV full of Men With Guns" is the fucking point. They're quite literally turning themselves into the Stasi - they are Anywhere, Anytime, and you will not know they're ICE until you're being shoved onto a plane. I wouldn't be surprised if dozens of white terror cells across the US are using the confusion to mask up, throw a plate carrier on, sling up a rifle, and kidnap minorities to kill/worse because this is basically all but an invitation to do so if you're a white supremacist terrorist.
