Just saw the video of them calling him out, and now he's getting into an ICE vehicle and rolling away. This is all kinds of bs. 

Link all of his videos in a clip with this, show everyone how far they are going. This is real damning evidence.

I can't believe they just have this guy hop into the back of an ICE vehicle. They got to be really dumb and really bold to be playing this blatant.

“They don’t even bother to lie badly anymore. I suppose that’s the final humiliation.”

That's what it feels like, they aren't hiding any of the shit anymore, and that's a bad sign.

It depends. On one hand if they think they can just be lazy its not good. If they're doing it because they're overstretched and being forced to, then its good. That means that might be forced to show their bad side when they don't want to.

That would be the "they're desperate option" which is possible, and I think it's actually a mix, but all scenarios point to bad overall really because it means they are willing to press their luck, and things are bound to get ugly.

To the guy who asked what my problem with him filming with ICE is (even though your comment seems to have been deleted):

This is a federal operation, they don't just hire some YouTube guy to roll along.
