Did you read what I said? They live there, and were leaving. They asked ICE to leave (Which they said yes to), ICE still put gas under they're car.

https://news.sky.com/video/fathers-six-children-in-hospital-after-ice-agents-throw-tear-gas-at-their-car-amidst-minneapolis-protests-13494538 I guess we're okay gassing kids now. Stand with ICE, eh? One of the kids stopped breathing btw. A 6 MONTH OLD. Oh I'll save you the questions. They live in the area. Were trying to leave. Asked ICE if they could leave (which they said yes to). ICE still gassed their car.

What happens to my immigrant visa interview appointment? Immigrant visa applicants who are nationals of affected countries may submit visa applications and attend interviews, and the Department will continue to schedule applicants for appointments, but no immigrant visas will be issued to these nationals during this pause. -Taken from the State Dept website

And sadly will still find a way to say this was justified

Considering this is for immigrant benefit visas by the Dept of State and the Muslim Ban being upheld before. This can be active until Trump leaves office. IMO, buckle up it's gonna be a long ride. I also think it's gonna be affecting K-1's as the Dept of State puts it under Immigrant Visa Categories listing. But I guess we'll find out.

https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/News/visas-news/immigrant-visa-processing-updates-for-nationalities-at-high-risk-of-public-benefits-usage.html There it is folks. The official hit of 75 countries banned. Effective January 21, 2026, the Department of State is pausing all visa issuances to immigrant visa applicants What happens to my immigrant visa interview appointment? Immigrant visa applicants who are nationals of affected countries may submit visa applications and attend interviews, and the Department will continue to schedule applicants for appointments, but no immigrant visas will be issued to these nationals during this pause. Are there any exceptions? Dual nationals applying with a valid passport of a country that is not listed above are exempt from this pause. Pro-immigration administration folks! No spousal exemptions as of now. Surely there's people that think this is positive. Edit: I pity and feel awful for the people that now have to deal with this. The people that voted for this and support this? They are not victims. They created their own issues and now are suffering the consequences of poor decisions.

For ROC and N-400. No. (Unless you were already part of the 39 countries originally) This is Dept of State processing for immigrant visas (plus the possible K1s, tracking their past actions) But my 2 cents pay very close attention because once Dept of State does something USCIS/DHS likes to lock step as of late.

If this is true, $20 says USCIS will take the same actions against AOS/I130 applicants too soon enough. Pro-immigration government y'all!

I mean if there is, it'll be interesting to see if they're gonna follow guidance put out on public charge. "The guidance instructs consular officers to deny visas to applicants deemed likely to rely on public benefits, weighing a wide range of factors including health, age, English proficiency, finances and even potential need for long-term medical care." "Older or overweight applicants could be denied, along with those who had any past use of government cash assistance or institutionalization." No fat people allowed of course.

Ah right, why am I using foxnews as a reliable source. https://www.forbes.com/sites/suzannerowankelleher/2026/01/14/us-freezes-immigration-visas-for-75-countries/ "US Freezes Immigration Visas for 75 Countries" Is a much better and real headline unlike foxnews.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/us-freezes-all-visa-processing-75-countries-including-somalia-russia-iran.amp Victory for lots of people I'm sure. What's the play here because next thing you know USCIS will pull the same thing.

Oh you know immigration is much more complicated than just that. Especially with the stories we've seen here on VJ.

Oh no, at worst a civil penalty I'm clutching my pearls...and that's only for those entry without inspection. So jaywalking. Undocumented presence alone isn't a crime as well.

Then where's the numbers? Prove to me that more than 5000 people in Minneapolis in a span of these few weeks were the "worst of the worst"

Irrelevant that someone has lived here longer than you have? Have a US citizen wife? Have US citizen kids? Pays taxes? Possibly owns a home?, but sure keep the immigration law broken cause it fits the political theater. I assume you believe all DACA'ers should be deported too?

Well the AG isn't supposed to be controlled by the presidency, I know it is now. But it wasn't like that until now. Merrick Garland on the other hand should've unsealed those files and release them. I don't care who it would stain, but it would've arrested Trump and Bill.

So Jose who's been here doubled the time you have for example, has a stable job, pays taxes, has a wife, and kids should be deported under the basis of the "worst of the worst"? Is that the "worst of the worst"?

Well duh. Arrest Bill & Trump, both in Epstein files.

Protesting = extremist activists. That's a stretch. According this article, I count 18 people there. ~3000 ICE agents going after 18 people is an enormous waste of taxpayer funds. No one ever argues the point of deporting hardened criminals, going door to door though? That's not enforcement, even less so forcing themselves in, as they don't have judicial warrants. We're acting like these hardened criminals are hiding under floorboards or something but they're not, they know where they are. From TRAC: "48,377 out of 65,735—or 73.6% held in ICE detention have no criminal conviction according to data current as of November 30, 2025. Many of those convicted committed only minor offenses, including traffic violations." They're also pulling agents from cases in ATF, FBI, HSI, DEA actually making real and bigger cases of real criminals, but sure, let's focus on Jose who's lived here for 20+ years and has a life established here with kids doing work that no other American is willing to do. "Worst of the worst" if you say it repeatedly enough doesn't make it true. Political theater.

There was a car that was clearly able to drive around Ms. Goods car right roughly 5 secs before all this happened. That point is well beyond moot as they themselves proved that they were not blocked by driving around Ms. Goods car

I'll cite case law yet again. Kirby v. Duva. Thomas Kirby was in a pickup truck nearly surrounded by officers. Conflicting evidence showed Kirby may have been slowly maneuvering his truck to get away, not trying to run anyone over. Officers nevertheless opened fire, killing Kirby. The Sixth Circuit held a jury could find this shooting unconstitutional: under Kirby’s version, no officer was in the truck’s path or in danger, and the truck had even come to a complete stop before officers fired. The court noted it was clearly established (by Garner) that shooting a fleeing felon who poses no serious threat is unlawful. In other words, “a fleeing car is not automatically a deadly threat” – there must be an immediate risk of harm. Because Kirby was unarmed and driving at low speed with officers out of harm’s way, deadly force was excessive. "He states that he heard the Ranger’s engine revving, observed the truck’s backup lights come on, and saw gravel flying from its tires. There was a distance of less than two feet between himself and the Ranger, Buckley estimates, as it came at him in reverse, traveling seven to eight miles per hour. Buckley testified that he tried to get to the Ranger’s side by stepping backwards and sideways, but could not avoid the vehicle, which up approximately twelve feet. Buckley claims that as he was pushed backward by the Ranger, he was forced to hang on to its tailgate. Buckley states that he then began to lose his balance and slipped down a muddy embankment towards the ditch. Fearing for his life, Buckley fired his gun into the Ranger four to five times. Buckley aimed at Kirby’s head with each shot, “shooting to kill him.”" Huh, look at that. A car turned away from you, EVEN IF you feared for your life, doesn't mean you can kill someone else. And the supreme court has stated this case before too.

In charges every shot is a verdict, you can be not guilty on shot 1 but guilty on shot 2-4

I mean when you drive you press the gas pedal, its the only way you moved forward. As far as position of the ice officer I've posted a still of where he was when the first shot was fired, both feet firmly planted at the SIDE of the car. While the cars wheels was turned AWAY. The new video that came out prove it even more so with her steering well before in advance, violating protocol and their own rules on approaching a car, and it doesn't help the officer saying the words "f***ing b**ch" right after the shooting. Also holding his phone in one hand and shooting with the other is not gonna go well with any court, its very careless. Case law proves many many times again, as I have said again...position of his body matters. You cannot use deadly force to prevent a car getting away. Barnes v. Felix as well, the excessive use of force but be analyzed using the totality of circumstances, and NOT "the moment of threat". Cordova v. Aragon, Orn v. City of Tacoma are more case laws Villanueva v Cleveland where Police officers were not entitled to qualified immunity after fatally shooting victim because officers could have simply moved away from slowly moving vehicle. This case was also "Villanueva performed the three-point turn in a controlled manner, and when the Officers opened fire" - Hmm Ms. Good performed a controlled turn away from officers, clearly showed from videos. But sure lets ignore case law everyone. There's like more of these cases as well

wow never knew she deserved the death penalty for that professional protester, do you have financial proof of that?

I've shown my evidence of a body fully away, 2 feet firmly planted from the vehicle when the first was fired. Now where's your evidence of the claim of driving AT officers when the first shot was fired? Anyone? Cause that's what matters in an investigation where was the body and himself positioned when the shot is fired, and not just the first shot, but the ones after as well. But 5 shots point blank to the head justified? Instead of the hood? The wheels?
