ICE agents denied entry to Dodger Stadium

Why hasn't anyone questioned the very basic point of professionalism in the U.S. industry called by some 'journalism'? I'm asking that because of what I'll show you below:



That bold font was just as it was shown on the page I landed on from that link.

BUT, how about that three-hour thirty-four minute delay? I assume that "Editor's Note" was the result of somebody telling the editor they screwed up.

Sorry, folks. I ain't buying this crap. That was intentional. The contents of the rest of the article pretty much shows that some boss (owner) was licking the boots of some Dem politician as a favor or some such thing.

I mean, what would be the purpose of including something about singing some song in Spanish, instead of English?

Plain and simple, that article is some Dem propaganda piece. And you Dem folks are blabbing all around here about them former Nazi folks and something about fascism and you can't recognize that very style tactic being used right under your noses by your own political party? You folks are either blinded by your politics; or you are seriously stupid.

Good thing I'm too old to do stand-up comedy, because that one article is worth a lot of cash for a nightclub act.

By the way, I'm leaning toward you're "blinded" not you're "stupid" although some of you write like 5th grade students.

*Sang the song in Spanish* - - - WHY NOT FRENCH!? I mean wasn't it the French military that them Mexican rebels had to fight? Let's have a Dodgers/Padres game in Mexico and ALL communications is in French. Teach umps and all players all the vocabulary they need in French. Anybody around this Community good with French?

There's no deep, dark conspiracy here. The article points out what the Dodgers said, how ICE responded to it and put their correction at the top of the article.

Elian Gonzalez wasn’t asked to leave the United States, and he wasn’t deported either.

The graphic picture included in your misleading meme was of federal agents forcing their way into the relatives home after they refused to release the boy to his father, who had been allowed to come to Florida from Cuba to be reunited with his son.

The event was another self-inflicted embarrassment for AG Reno and the Clinton administration.

Nah….they will remain able to protect their lives, as well as the lives of their families. Guess you will have to deal with it.

Until trump 2, Federal law enforcement agents were able to eschew face masks AND "protect their lives".

Concealing the identities of those who grab people, detain them, perhaps transport them to parts unknown, is done to make it difficult to hold these "law enforcement agents" and their superiors accountable for their actions. It promotes and thus enables lawlessness.

Just as bank robbers strive to conceal their identities in order to get away with lawlessness, so, too, do those "law enforcement agents" who wear face masks. Superiors and legal authorities who allow such masking are also making transparency very difficult - and are thus promoting lawlessness.

ICE claims they were not there. I agree with you though.

Per Grok:
"ICE’s Denial: ICE stated on X, “False. We were never there,” and DHS clarified that the agents present were from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), not ICE, and their presence was “unrelated to any operation or enforcement.”

How’s CBP officers asking for permission to access Dodger Stadium parking areas not “related to any operation or enforcement”?

No, no. If Republicans want the faceless Militia straight out of Perdido Street Station, let them have them. Like I keep saying, if the shoe is ever on the other foot, I would expect the Democrats to order Federal agencies to show the same level of restraint, grace and charity as was shown to them.

So you agree this is very wrong. I think so too.

I know right? They’re really telling on themselves by using that picture.

Either they support it and they admit all their rhetoric about dems on immigration is bullshit, or they don’t support it and thereby condemn Trump’s violent anti-immigrant theatrics.

I've already considered the possibility some of trump's Federales use face masks as a method of escaping accountability for their actions.

That this is condoned, perhaps encouraged, by higher-ups suggests another reason: to instill not just fear in the populace, but also to get the public used to the fact that the rule of law no longer prevails in some law enforcement situations. Once we're used to a change, even one that is negative, many of us eventually accept it as the new norm. In so doing, we make ourselves more susceptible to accepting more and more irregularities, more illegalities, in the process of the legal system's controlling Americans.

Interesting when you consider who's advocating for the cheapest of labor to be removed from the country and who's standing in the way of it.

Republicans aren’t going after labor, though, they’re only targeting blue areas.

Don’t you wonder why Trump is leaving red areas to be plagued by the vermin of illegal immigrants? It’s almost like they’re being used as a scapegoat and an excuse to impose paramilitary control over blue areas. 🤔

Except there's video (even on the evening news here) of them all camped outside the main parking entrance.

UNLESS, as many of us have pointed out, they were posers.....when you mask yourself and don't wear identification or proper uniforms..........................
 
Gatsby said:
So three possibilities:

1. ICE is lying.
2. People unaffiliated with ICE convincingly impersonated them, since apparently ICE can wear plain clothes and not identify themselves.
3. The Dodgers made it up for no reason whatsoever.

I'm going to go with 1, then 2, then 3 as the most likely possibilities.

Video eliminated #3.

CBP is supposed to be on the border, but Trump is taking them away to raid blue cities instead.

I disagreed with that as well but he wasn’t deported he was returned to his father. That said they didn’t need to do it that way

The family in Florida had their day in court. They lost. They refused to turn Elian over to his custodial father and inferred they would stir up violence.
