Showing them as pillars of humans, keeping the US safe from - what? photoshopped pics of people made to look as criminals?

We know who the true criminals are. It rhymes with "Lice"

Have not seen one on USAHD. Watching the game there.
Peacock helping to recruit murderers. The left needs to purchase time showing their brutality and murder.
With lots of Miller and Trump mug shots cheering it all on.

But ICE's budget has skyrocketed during President Trump's second term, becoming the highest-funded U.S. law enforcement agency, with $85 billion now at its disposal.
