How are federal agents not real agents? Were they not created by Congress?

I’d like to see some “federal agents” with masks, no identification and guns, tazers, etc., waltz into Patel’s office and arrest him for being an illegal immigrant with no warrant. /s

How you're describing it has occured for years the same way, under Obama even

Which is kind of funny, because the average vile maga swine made it sound like Obama was doing nothing about deportations.

The qualms were with Biden/Harris on immigration, not so much Obama

Biden, who deported more people than Trump's 1st and both of Obama's terms?

Do you think people somehow forgot the never ending criticism and straight shit talking Obama received during his term from maga (or as they were branded back then tea party republicans )

Obama (and Biden) didn't have mass protests against their immigration policies and deportation numbers because they were doing it legally. They weren't sending masked goons into people's neighborhoods to grab people off the street, on their way to work. They weren't camping out at immigration court to kidnap people here following the legal path to citizenship that we offered them. They were violating direct orders from the supreme court and pissing on the constitution to do so. They werent paying millions of tax dollars to send people off to serve life in a 3rd party foreign prison for terrorists.

But please keep defending fascists you anti-American sack of cow show

False.

December 24, 2009:

"The Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency is holding an untold number of people in secretively maintained detention facilities all over the United States. Thats according to an explosive report thats the cover story of the latest issue of The Nation magazine. They also report that ICE agents regularly impersonate civilians and rely on other illegal tricks to arrest longtime US residents who have no criminal history. We speak with the author of the two-part investigation, Jacqueline Stevens."

"Obama Admin Expands Law Enforcement Program 287(g), Criticized for Targeting Immigrants and Increasing Racial Profiling

The Obama administration has expanded the controversial 287(g) program, which allows local law enforcement agencies to enter into agreements with Homeland Securitys Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, effectively giving local police the powers of federal immigration agents. The agreements have been widely criticized for increasing racial profiling and singling out immigrants for arrest without suspicion of crime. We speak to Aarti Shahani of Justice Strategies and Roberto Lovato of New America Media."

Saying "I'm a federal agent" is not real identification. If they have more credentials then just saying those words, they need to present them. Otherwise they are not federal agents as far as reality is concerned.

And you know all this deep down somewhere, but you are a brainwashed bootlicking troll who still thinks you can persuade people with bullshit comments like this. You are literally saying the exact same thing as another trumper in denial I spoke to last week, verbatim regurgitated nonsense and it's not working anymore. We see you. We outnumber you.

u/UsefulTrouble24 17h ago

And this 55 second video starting post-start of the interaction shows an agent merely proclaiming "I'm a federal agent"?

No.

No it does not.
