    What to do in a raid in no particular order:

    1. Don’t become a violent activist
    2. Let them do their jobs enforcing the laws
    3. Don’t support illegal immigration and sanctuary cities

    Also, wtf is this video “If you’re here illegally and committing crime of still staying here illegally, here’s what you should do to avoid suffering any consequences of doing illegal stuff against the law (intentionally). Also buy food on your own money and give it to illegal migrants (and complain about not having enough money, blaming the government)”

    February 25, 2026 at 8:09 pm

    I like your shows.. but again you are very biased… you did not mention a single time that entry of the United States illegally is a violation of the 8 U.S.C. § 1325 (Improper Entry by Alien – misdemeanor) or 8 U.S.C. § 1326 (Illegal Re-entry – felony charge), which are federal laws. Both of them would most likely trigger USCIS denial based on the “good moral character” because you have to show that you are a law-abiding member of society. I also would love to know how many people actually self deport when they are given an order of deportation… I doubt it will be a double digit number…

    • @gloriamaeo87

    • @uToobeD

      February 26, 2026 at 8:52 am

      Yeah it’s literally saying “Laws don’t matter, just pick and choose the ones you want to follow”

      To be fair, I think some laws are bad, but the idea of citizenship is one that has practical applications and benefits. I would never dream of staying in another country that I wasn’t meant to be in, the same way I woudn’t stay in someone’s house where I wasn’t meant to stay, it’s just common sense.

    • @nsbd90now

      March 1, 2026 at 4:30 pm

      ICE is literally not enforcing the law, but is acting outside of it. The law requires due process and no cruelty.

    • @dr3yfusz

      March 2, 2026 at 6:41 am

      @nsbd90now immigration proceedings are civil, not criminal, so they are acting within the law. stop posting wrong info.

    • @nsbd90now

      March 2, 2026 at 6:52 am

      @dr3yfusz Oh dude… you have just failed so awfully. The fact they are civil infractions– like a speeding ticket– makes what ICE is doing and Republicans cheering even WORSE! Much, much, much worse. But good for you recognizing how Trump lied about going after only criminal types.

  46. @Chris-b4g5j

    February 26, 2026 at 9:56 pm

    Let me state this: If Trump and his administration cared about their reputation they would have punished the ICE agents who shot and killed people on United States soil rather recklessly. But nope it seems they do not give a single care and just keep sending people in flux where it is extremely difficult for the average American to tell the difference between an immigrant and a citizen.

    Before you people start calling me a “leftist” let me make this clear: I do not support Democrats or Republicans. Democrats are too steeped into people pleasing and Republicans (especially under Trump) are so full of hate it is extremely sickening. Heck I have not even been registered to vote and probably never will. Why should I support a system that I did not even have a choice of choosing to be a part of when I was born?

    So most Mayors of Sanctuary Cities are now calling *ALL* gang bangers but the white gangs to come to their office and talk about how they can fight ICE, while turning their back on their own Law Enforcement officers who are now not supported and on their own with no protection.
    That tells you all you need to know about the NEW DEMist Party.

    You can blame Americans being detained by ICE on the Sanctuary States, they handed out Drivers Licensees out like candy, and now it’s not enough to prove your Citizenship. The Vetting will go on back at the Headquarters now.
    Elect or Re-Elect a DEMist and they will only double down, only this time it will be your STATE, City or town that will be like Oakland, LA, SF, Porland, Seattle, Chicago, NY, DC, Etc…
    They are trying to Fundamentally Change Our Nation, and that’s a show stopper for the US Patriot.
