ICE does not only use ruses pretending to be local police. They also use ruses pretending to be potential employers, or even private businesses. They may drive what looks like a delivery van, wear a fake uniform, or carry ladders, clipboards, and other props. They may intentionally be vague about who they are. Ruses are not only an in-person tactic. ICE agents also use phone ruses as a way to locate their target. Through conducting their surveillance, ICE agents may obtain the phone number of the person they have targeted but not know where to physically find them. Ruses that ICE has used over the phone include pretending: to be local police and asking you to answer a few questions for them to be local police asking you to meet them because you are the suspect in a criminal case they found your lost ID and need to arrange a time and place for you to pick it up to be calling from a local District Attorney office wanting to arrange a time and place to meet you to call from a local court confirming an upcoming court date or asking for your updated contact information https://www.immigrantdefenseproject.org/ice-ruses/#8-what-kinds-of-ruses-does-ice-use Story 1255 [CM], Brooklyn, NY, January 2019

Biden Pardons 5 Members of His Family in Final Minutes in Office President Biden pardoned five members of his family in his last minutes in office, saying in a statement that he did so not because they did anything wrong but because he feared political attacks from incoming President Donald J. Trump. “My family has been subjected to unrelenting attacks and threats, motivated solely by a desire to hurt me — the worst kind of partisan politics,” he said in his last statement as president. “Unfortunately, I have no reason to believe these attacks will end.” Mr. Biden’s action pardoned James B. Biden, his brother; Sara Jones Biden, James’s wife; Valerie Biden Owens, Mr. Biden’s sister; John T. Owens, Ms. Owens’s husband; and Francis W. Biden, Mr. Biden’s brother. The White House announced the pardons with less than 20 minutes left in Mr. Biden’s presidency, after he had already walked into the Capitol Rotunda to witness the swearing-in of Mr. Trump before leaving the Capitol for the last time as president. more at https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/20/us/politics/biden-pardons-family.html

and the sweeping under the rug continues Biden issues preemptive pardons for Milley, Fauci and Jan. 6 committee members WashingtonCNN — President Joe Biden on Monday issued preemptive pardons for Gen. Mark Milley, Dr. Anthony Fauci and members of Congress who served on the committee investigating the January 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, using extraordinary executive prerogative as a shield against revenge by his incoming successor, Donald Trump. The pardons, coming in the final hours of Biden’s presidency, amount to a stunning flex of presidential power that is unprecedented in recent presidential history. They serve to protect several outspoken critics of the incoming president, including former Republican Rep. Liz Cheney, whom Trump has vowed retribution against. “These are exceptional circumstances, and I cannot in good conscience do nothing,” Biden wrote in a statement, issued hours before he was set to welcome Trump to the White House for tea before attending his swearing-in. “Baseless and politically motivated investigations wreak havoc on the lives, safety and financial security of targeted individuals and their families.” more at https://www.cnn.com/2025/01/20/politics/joe-biden-preemptive-pardons/index.html

A Florida jury on Friday found CNN guilty of defaming a U.S. Navy veteran and security contractor with a 2021 story about the costs of evacuating Afghans after the Taliban took control of their country. The jury ruled in favor of Zachary Young, who said his reputation and business were destroyed when the network showed his face onscreen during a segment about a black market of smugglers who were helping Afghans flee the country for high fees in the months after the U.S. withdrawal. Jurors awarded Young $5 million for lost business opportunities and pain and suffering after 8.5 hours of deliberation across two days. The jury will now decide how much the network must pay in punitive damages. Lawyers for each party will have an opportunity to present additional evidence as the jury works to determine punitive damages. more at https://www.nationalreview.com/news/cnn-loses-defamation-case-ordered-to-pay-5-million-to-navy-veteran/amp/
