Notable Quotes
“It's not the most egregious thing we've seen but following the several terror attacks we've seen against the ice facilities it is pretty shocking that the federal government is allowing this degree of violence to escalate.”
— Tim Pool · opening commentary on ICE riots
“We are well past the point where we can tolerate people obstructing federal vehicles. This is not a protest, this is a riot.”
— Tim Pool · analysis of ICE facility attack situation
“If you look at Illinois and how I voted during that last election, it's a red state. It is a red state with a big blue dot. So I think that right now, Illinois is at a precipice where they understand that they cannot go another four years with all these blue representatives who truly don't care about the future of the state.”
— Christian Maxwell · guest interview political analysis
“The vehicles in the ICE terror attack were not buses. They were white vans. The individual who fired on them did not know they were detainee transport. They were just shooting on ICE vehicles thinking they were targeting law enforcement, ended up hitting these detainees.”
— Ian Crossland · analysis of Dallas attack
“Building a community is the most important thing we can do. Having networks, having connections, people who can help you out, people you can help out.”
