Ice News Chills Spine

August 23, 2026

Egregious no longer suffices to describe the behavior of the American Gestapo…Black-masked-thugs…ICE. This week: deport soldiers, kill demonstrators (again, with a new weapon).

ICE is grabbing and deporting members of the U.S. Military and their families.

On the upside, a statement from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) launched an effort to end the widespread fertilizer crisis.

Thanks to the President’s closure of the Strait of Hormuz (open before his war), there is a worldwide fertilizer shortage and inflated costs of the available fertilizer.

In a statement, DHS defended ICE kidnapping U.S. active-duty soldiers. The first phrase, “While DHS acknowledges the contributions of military personnel, it emphasizes that…” is the purest bovine effluvia in the context of the rest of the statement.

It is an established fact that bovine effluvia is an effective fertilizer. If the DHS shreds its disingenuous statement and sends the ground up bull byproduct around the country, the fertilizer crisis will be over. Once again our active-duty soldiers have served the nation. Their sacrifice (being deported)  has saved the American farmer.

Defensive Weapon, If Used Competently ICE is buying electric shock gloves. Used improperly (for more than 15 seconds for example) highly trained ICE enforcers can kill people, and probably already have. Normal people have raised concerns about another deadly tool in ICE hands.
