Because the are ashamed of their job & themselves.

Covid maybe?😂

Maybe more important about their hiddenness is who are they, where do they come from, who did background checks, how did they get here, what are their qualifications, and who referred them? Finally what is their pay structure?

Probably proud boys and Jan 6ers.

👆👆👆👆

Because they are the Proud Boys

Because they are not legitimate agents, they are insurrectionists.

They are the proud boys.

Because they are Hispanic.

I'm sure they are the same folks who fought against masks during the pandemic! 🙄

cowardice criminals

Are you tired of all the winning?

They called his bluff and 🦊 will claim it’s a great deal from a great businessman

Making America Great Again one masked face at a time.

Start putting a name to these ICE/KKK Thug’s!

Can anyone imagine a worse nightmare than this? People being hauled off by these faceless morons is inhuman. And the government sanctions this; America, your sick and dystopian future is here.

Ever

💪

Because they are contracted. They are white nationalists, christian nationalists, proud boys, klan members, and hired guns. They are not trained for what they’re doing. They are viscous animals & if we ever get this regime out they will scurry like the roaches they are & hide as best they can.

vicious*

They're probably pretty viscous as well.

LoL very high resistance to flow!

Very viscous. Slow running goo

Slimy Bastids!

White trash 🤷🏻‍♂️

They’re Nazis and this is the 4th Reich

And why do they all wear different hats and shirts? It’s like they are really official ICE agents

Because they’re not really law enforcement and most likely the Jan 6th pardon felons and more recruits from proud boys. The message they got: they can be criminal and not be held accountable.

If there isn't already, maybe there should be a law prohibiting such.

Monsters always wear masks

It's interesting that ICE agents look EXACTLY like what the proud boys looked like. Weird that.

Can't they be charged with impersonating a police officer?

Because they are Proud Boys given kidnap authority by that piece of crap in the WH and his creepy pedo friend, Tom Homan.

I'm glad you specified which pedo friend, because most of them are pedophiles, including that piece of crap in the WH.

I totally agree... "NO MASKS!"

I would say pussies. But I refuse to offend pussies.

They lack both the depth and the warmth.

😏 touché

They are F47’s Brown Shirts…I see civil rights crimes against humanity ahead. Prosecute, charge show their faces and imprison them.

They don’t want people to know who they are, they don’t want people to know who their friends and family are, because they’re either not proud of what they are doing. Or if they are proud, they don’t want others to know that they are garbage, immoral, humans.

😡 what are they afraid of? Are they ashamed of what they are doing?

Proud Boys and the J 6er's The Convicts Goon Squad !!!

Pretty soon Trump will employ the white S Africans to be part of ICE to deport non-white immigrants.

You wear a mask when your face is as ugly as your soul.

Multiple lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of ICE officers in masks arresting people excercising their constitutional rights should be filed. Dictators (Nazi Germany, Putin’s Russia) use thugs in masks to arrest opposition leaders, not patriotic Americans. No Kings, No Masks.

Hey wake up!!! Because all of this abusers supposed to be HSI, are the January 6Th criminals, they are the Trump Militia , and are in the streets doing whatever they want.

Possible because unhinged types threatening for doing their jobs?

They took an oath to uphold the constitution. They’re breaking their oaths. That’s why they hide their faces

Taking citizens of another country who do not belong here back to where belong... quite lawful.

Not without due process . Otherwise they could call you “illegal” & deport you. Why is this such a difficult concept?

The process is determine if are citizen...just like every other country in the world. If come in and do not even attempt an asylum claim. Back out go.

wut

They are rightly ashamed that their parents, their children, their friends, their neighbors and prosecutors will recognise them.

With heavy emphasis on prosecutors.

For now. The emphasis on who they're hiding from will shift once the gun-toting public gets fed up with this. They're counting on the fact that no one is armed, and they have their vests on. Vests won't do them any good close up and they can't wear them 24/7. That vigilante stuff works both ways.

Because they got the idea from CECOT. They can't be identified if they wear masks & they can hire & use criminals as agents.

Men 47 pardoned from January 6th?

Very possible

Some of this is being farmed out to private contractors. Legalized goon squads. After the first one gets shot, other ppl will be emboldened to protect themselves. FL is especially ripe for one of these cretins to get a lead injection, with its "Stand Your Ground" & non-existent concealed carry laws.

Which is exactly what they want so tRump can roll out military under the Insurrection Act.

He doesn't need a flimsy pretense like that. He already declared an invasion by Venezuela to justify his kidnappings. That's all the reason he needs to abuse the military if he decides to. Frankly, I hope he does it sooner rather than later. There may be a few troops who aren't totally magafied yet.

A lot of them are not even federal ICE agents. They are paramilitaries that have been “deputized”- Blackwater is on contract too along with other mercenary groups

because they’re Proud Boys

And J-6ers

And if they are identified as J-6ers it will make 45 look like he's using his own private police.

Exactly.

Because he is using his own private "police".

Because we all recognize a bunch of those Proud Boys by now.

Because, proud boys.

Great observation.

They know what they are doing is wrong. Even the Gestapo didn't wear masks. Cowards, all of them.

Because they are the proud white boys, and some of them are illegal as well, and they are kissing their cult leaders ass🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Scared little bitches.

Proud Boys I say.

ICE agents are masked because they are terrorists.

Fascists wear masks

Perhaps there is a fear of facial recognition software revealing how many January 6th insurrectionists are employed now as ICE agent!

(my theory) Because.... 👉🏼 ICE are not properly trained law enforcement officers. 👉🏼 ICE are deputized local thugs from the J6 criminal crowd. 👉🏼 ICE have the same resident status as those they kidnap and deport. #EndICE #EndTRUMPISM #EndMAGA #JailTrump #JailStephenMiller #JailNoem #JailICEagents

Never!!! 👎

Probably so that even their mothers won’t recognize them. It’s obviously not a job they’re proud of.

Gestapo .

It boggles the mind. They are just running around anonymously kidnapping people out of their neighborhoods. Scary and infuriating.

once more with alt text

Exactly.

Because they are mostly Jan6 pardonees?

They are cowards.

They've clearly been deputizing far right militias in huge numbers. My bet is that's why.

Unmask them!

#ICE isn't "deporting" immigrants, it is kidnapping them. #DOGE isn't "fixing" the government, it is dismantling it. #Trump isn't "helping" Americans, he is retaliating against them. Pam Bondi isn't "upholding" the Constitution, she is ignoring it. #FuckTrump #Resist #Felon47

Pussys galore!

Because they are criminals.

They don't want to be identified.

Are they not required by law to identify themselves upon request by showing their badge and id? What’s the point in the mask then.

All Gestapo’s are illegal militia’s in reality Supported by Secretary Dog Whacker, Secretary of Weasels, Crash Patel, DNI director Gabby, who’s an agent for Russia, and a con man president In 29’ who’s going to fix it?

Because they can because so far there’s been NO CONSEQUENCES for trumps illegal practices. WHERE ARE THE DEMOCRATS ?

ICE doing cosplay as Antifa, it seems

These guys are not ICE. They are Shitler's J6 insurrectionists that he pardoned.

Because they're not ICE agents. They are the insurrectionists that Shitler pardoned and they don't want to be recognized.

youtu.be/8DfNCRlbwok?...

bsky.app/profile/lyni...

They are the fakest of the fake.

Because they are committing crimes and don't want to be identified!

We need to out them all

Find his name Spread his shame This is an #ICEGestapo thug Needs to be exposed, then arrested & charged with assault I want to see proof from that fat fascist fuck Tom Homan that they have the authority to arrest peaceful protesters

Yep that is ICE director Tom should be arrest for this..

Exactly 💯

If you watch the video, blue tshirt guy frantically pulls up his mask several times while this was going down. Makes me think he's got a say job he's afraid of losing.

Ack, *day job

What are the full names and home addresses of these Republican Party Costume Store Weekend MAGA Rambo Cowards? Full names and home addresses NOW!

They KNOW they’ll be defused service EVERYWHERE they go!!! And SHOULD BE!!!

You are assuming they are ICE

They all are infected with COVID-19. They don't mind kidnapping people off thee street and from their homes; however, they don't want to spread thee virus.

Shame that y they have to hide

If they aren't sworn officers, they can't arrest anyone. If they are, they have to be identifiable with their name on a badge and no mask.

Theoretically. Not in real life. These goons can do and will do whatever they like. They don't "have to" do jack shit. They won't have to justify any of this in any courtroom. They snatch people up minutes b4 they ID themselves. Perfect opportunity to put a slug of lead into their heads, IMO.

Isn’t it funny that masks were mandated and everyone has to wear one … and now the same people that were mandated to have to wear a mask are being told that they can’t wear masks? Maybe they are doing for the public’s health?

What departments have the officers’, deputies’, or agents’ names right on the badge?

We specialize in double standards

Just a pack of thugs. And yes, aren’t these the same guys that revolted against masking? I do believe they are.

This is horrifying - real Gestapo shut this.

Cops are shady. They’d all wear masks if the law didn’t stop them. The mask helps make it easier to kick someone’s ass.

Because they’re not ICE. They’re Proud Boys.

I came here to say the same thing essentially. We need to stop calling them ICE. Our choice of which words we use is extremely important to painting an accurate picture.

You mean Nazis. Those are Nazis. We killed them in WW2.

Update, lololololol

I love that guy.

The first and last paragraphs don’t match up…

Not all/enough of them youtu.be/OLkPwxcIji0?...

I was going to say the same, but now I am thinking, state sponsored terrorists.

bsky.app/profile/lyni...

Absolutely

They're recent hires too. Probably the J6 ones. Gross really. Not even fit to be mall cops, but here we are.

Yes they are. They're proud boys AND cops. I don't worry about the military, I don't worry about the National Guard (except the ones who are cops), I only worry about the police.

If they are masked, they are cartel gunmen. Fight back accordingly.

Ask yourself, when is the last time you saw any law enforcement organization with each individual wearing a different uniform? We need to know who these people are. We need to start identifying them.

Exactly. Suspicious AF to have different uniforms and wear masks that conceal their identities.

Preferably we'll learn who they are by their toe tags.

I wouldn't particularly have a problem with that at this point.

Because they are vile thugs. If they were proud of what they were doing there would be no reason to hide the ugliness they represent.

They’d be recognized as freed domestic terrorists otherwise.

That’s because they are J6ers. Not real authority and should be treated as such.

Gators are for terrorists and white supremacists. Tracks.

Because they're cowards.

They ugly. That’s why.

They already know they’re in the wrong.

Because they're paid thugs.

Maybe what the gathering crowds need to do is, literally, unite to pull down masks and get video or photos of their faces. May be more effective than trying to hold on to the people they’re disappearing in that moment.

A half-arsed militia.

Cuz they ashamed to show their faces cuz they're breaking the law and if we see their faces we could track them down and hold their feet to the coals for their crimes.

I am not sure where this is going on, but in some parts of the country, anyone pulling this stuff is pretty likely to get filled full of hot lead. Come at someone wearing a mask and demanding something, one is most likely to be a thief or car jacker. That is called home castle and not guilty.

They probably suspect that when we return to the rule of law in less than 4 years, their jackbooted asses might be going to jail.

And masks don't seem to be optional but I guess if you are grabbing people off the streets (kidnapping) you don't want anyone to recognize you while you "do what they told me to do".

They're afraid of doxxing and vigilante retribution. As they should be.

They get to rough up anyone and scare millions half to death, but they're cowards who can't be seen.

Who are they? I see zero evidence they are officers of any legitimate police force or agency.

This is not an indicator of a civilized country or a law abiding police force.

Because they are militia

Stupid mfrs dressing up playing "soldier". just a bunch of thugs

They don't wear uniforms, either. The original Brown Shirts were at least recognizable by their clothing. I don't think the blue t-shirt is regulation in any official militia.

That's what I just said! I don't think they should be allowed to be masked. The only reason they would want to be masked is because they are being wrong and don't want to be recognized or identified! All of this is creepy as sh!t!

ICE wears skateboarder clothing now?

Cowards the lot of 'em

Their new costumes are on backorder from China...

Anonymous masked men kidnapping citizens, seems like a prime opportunity for concerned community groups to ‘stand their ground’ and make citizen’s arrests of the alleged “ICE” assailants.

"Stand Your Ground" laws allow far more proactive action than citizens' arrests. They won concealed carry laws that require no permit, no regs and no qualifications too. I honestly can't wait for someone to plug a couple of these masked kidnappers right in the street.

Proud boys larping as law enforcement, aka cowards.

They’re cowards?

It's interesting that we're still assuming half of these people are even officers.

Gutless

Fucking cowardly brutes!

Well you see now they aren’t the ones being “oppressed” They’re doing the oppressing so it’s fine now

they are kidnapping people. plain and evil

Chicken shit, every last one of them

no badges no warrants.. makes them Thugs... treat them appropriately: bsky.app/profile/ogre...

They are proud boys and J6 terrorists. They are cowards!

They’re cowards. Every damn one of them.

Maybe we can get behind them & pull really, really hard. 🤔

ICE thugs are not police. ICE thugs know they are breaking the law. ICE thugs hide because they know they’re breaking the law. Arrest ICE thugs. Demand laws that force legitimate law enforcement to show their faces, badge # & jurisdiction. Now. #FireGOP

They know what they are doing is illegal and fear the consequences of what will happen to them when "donvict" and his storm troopers are thrown out of power!! Cowards!!

In the past, an armed person wearing a mask was usually up to no good. That’s still true today.

They are the new era Nazi Brown shirts.

Funny how they aren't screaming "i cAn'T bReAthE" anymore. 🙄

They aren’t ICE. They are the Proud Boys and those that marched in Charlottesville.

I’ve wondered about this myself. I saw a side-by-side picture of one of the ICE agents, along with a picture of one of the J6 instigators. They looked eerily similar. Coincidence? Hmm.

💯

I can understand only if you're an undercover officer. But, if you are, then you shouldn't be participating in these raids. None of these people should be masked.

We need to rip off their masks. Without identification, they are kidnappers.

Because they’re breaking the law.

They complained ABOUT MASKS during Covid about their fkg rights.... now to infringe on other people's ,MASKS ARE OK? COWARDLY BULLSHIT.

FACTS

Doesn’t matter. No one is doing anything about it…other than documenting it on social media. Drumpf was just openly bribed with a $400 million 747 by a terrorist supporting country. The US is a laughing stock. They are going down with barely a peep.

It’s frustrating to see so much happening and nothing changing. Social media might document it, but it’s hard not to feel like it’s all being ignored. We deserve accountability, not just headlines.”

I’ve seen documentaries from other countries where there have been violent protests after building collapses or other disasters. Americans are allowing their entire airline infrastructure to be dismantled, but only complain on social media.

but not much action beyond that. Maybe it’s due to a mix of political fatigue, lack of trust in change, or just being used to things gradually declining.

The GOP used to scream “Biden’s laptop!”, but they stand by and watch a 747 cruise in.

Wild, right? They made a whole spectacle out of a laptop, but now when something massive and obvious is happening, it’s crickets. The selective outrage is unreal.

That’s a strong point. It’s interesting how reactions to disasters or systemic failures vary by country. In some places, people hit the streets demanding accountability. In the U.S., there’s often outrage online,

True, bit online outrage is usually just scrolled by.

👍Theodor Lessing once wrote: ‘Worse than the warmongers are the lazy and fearful. They are the real culprits’.

When did they find the time to train so many all across the country. I think they’re all militias preparing for the next phase

If it’s perfectly legal, acceptable, and just, then there’s no reason to wear a mask. Umm (Checks notes) oh right.

Because he's given the proud boys a job

Ironically they look like narcos from Mexico.

2 reasons: 1. For intimidation (Russian internal police wear getups like this) 2. If we ever manage to overthrow MAGA they don't want to be ID'd as having been involved with crimes against humanity

that won't help them.

They learned from the Nazi hunting, that the survivors hunt their cowardly asses down. Karma is a bitch !

Maybe because they know what happens to shitbags when the trials begin. “ I had no choice, I was just doing my job.” Will be the worse defense ever.

they wear mask so no one can identify them as proud boys and jan 6th traitors

Because they are a bunch of Nazi cowards!

Never Ever

There are laws (ex. South Carolina, Virginia, Georgia) that *ban* face coverings with varying exceptions. The excuses include preventing "criminal activity, evading arrest or intimidating others." Republican might want to be "careful what they wish for"?

Tucked inside the National Defense Authorization Act (H.R. 6395), which just became law I. 2021. Tell them no and stand your ground. They must identify. www.aclu.org/news/free-sp...

Exactly. Transparency and accountability are key, especially when it comes to law enforcement. No one should be above identification, especially in situations that involve public protest.”

This also goes for supposed ICE agents ( Thugs with gunz, Proud Boys, Meal team 6...etc..)

You say that like they aren’t kidnappers who have zero respect for the law. 20-30 people were there demanding a warrant and screaming “You have no right to detain her because you don’t have a warrant” and they took her anyway. So how does HR6395 protect against the lawless kidnapping?

@indivisible.org @indivisiblefitchma.bsky.social @50501movement.bsky.social @democrats-judiciary.house.gov @aoc.bsky.social @sanders.senate.gov

Not easy to say NO and stand your ground, when there are a dozen or so armed goons surrounding you. Did that law apply when many POC were beaten or shot by local police enforcement over trivial traffic stops etc?

Did the law apply in MA when local police enabled a kidnapping because the alleged ICE agent was afwaid of the scawy crowd surrounding him?

This story is from Jan 4th. That means this law is already in effect. So where's the enforcement? Clearly, it is not being followed.

Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?

Who indeed. We can rule out Congress and the DOJ. Our only remaining hope is that the people pursue justice though the courts and that the Supreme Court doesn't capitulate to Heil Trump.

Jan. 4, 2021 no less.

Because it could never pass with the Republicans in the majority.

So, if they aren't identifying themselves... Then they aren't federal employees, Right? Don't let J6 Cosplayers claiming to be Police/ICE take anyone to a secondary location.

Why are these ICE employees wearing jeans?

All business up top (combat vests, weapons) and party down below? It’s ridiculous.

How many are wearing cowboy boots? Or are they being issued with jackboots?

I saw one of them was wearing sneakers. SNEAKERS, FFS.

I'm hitting like, because I can't use this on the comment 😂

People are trying to keep them from enacting their abductions. But then the local “to protect and serve” police are called in and they protect the cosplaying “agents.” We’re supposed to believe this one, with his wallet sticking out of the pocket of his jeans, is a real, trained federal agent???

Perfect post

Every law-abiding American needs a tazer for when they turn their backs on us.

If you think that one is good/bad, look at this sneaker-wearing “agent” - while fumbling for his cuffs, his WALLET fell out of his pocket!

Wow

Looks like a good time for a pickpocket to help unmask one of these fuckers

Love to find out where they are finding men willing to do this job.

They're probably private contractors or mercenaries from the former Blackwater.

Certainly a possibility, if the government can afford to pay them the kind of money they made as mercenaries.

Just watch some video from the Jan 6 terrorist actions against Congress - lots of willing dipshits with their faces then uncovered

I would love to see someone use sophisticated facial recognition software to match up Jan 6ers and ICE agents.

I bet there are many Proud Boys and other J6’ers who willingly go looking for opportunities to be “real patriots” and help “rid the country of those criminals.” Ironic that THEY are criminals. Pardoned, perhaps, but criminals nonetheless.

Indeed. By definition, you are pardoned because you were found guilty. It's not overturning the conviction, just the sentence.

Are local police verifying the identities and authority to make these street snatches before assisting and protecting them from the public, rather than the other way around?

No, of course not.

These masked lynch mobs are probably worried that if they show their faces, people will publish their identities. And then they'll get sent pizzas and their children will be threatened

Right. And that's THEIR thing.

Anytime you see a wallet or phone or anything from these clowns haning out and unprotected - TAKE THEM and run off. Time to start our own database of ICE agent identities.

Shoot any unidentified people trying to illegally enter your home.

No, what it probably means is that federal employees are breaking the law in these kidnappings.

Then it's still unlaw detention - still fight like your life depends on it - don't go peacefully for jackbooted thugs.

I have a problem with telling people to "fight like your life depends on it" when confronted with multiple, armed agents who, if necessary, can shoot you or taser you. Don't give them an excuse to justify physical assaults. Let the lawyers handle the "fighting".

Agreed that fighting them only gives them actual charges to throw at you. But if someone came at me, trying to grab me and cuff & detain me without giving me any ID or proof of why they are detaining me, I think my body self-preservation instincts might kick in.

I understand what you mean. When the "fight or flight" instinct and adrenaline kick in, my body says, "I'm too old to run, so let's at least go down swinging".

If my choices are carried by 6 here, or abra Kadabra El Salvador death camp... Dead either way, I'm Valhalla bound

Oh yah im sure pam bondi will get right on that

This is a perfect example of an oversight by the founding fathers. They assumed that the coequal branches of government would keep each other in check. They never considered that the executive could intimidate the Congress and pack the courts to get its own way.

It seems like an odd oversight for such an otherwise fairly paranoid bunch

Why would party cross-collusion not be as likely as the king of England making a comeback

Been there, done that.

You forgot the part about a lawless and unaccountable regime. They've no intention of having their goons identify themselves, as they've proven repeatedly already. If they aggressively approach me, unidentified and masked up, I will kill them immediately and without hesitation. Simple.

Exactly. Secret police? Since when did we authorize that???

Are these bounty hunters like the guy on tv? Do they get a bounty cash infusion for every person they kidnap? Seems like it.

Small peepee energee

That’s when you have to start asking yourself who the REAL terrorists are…

That mask is used to cover a SH!THEAD.

bsky.app/profile/proj... Shroud of guilt...

Because it is a fascist government George. Technically not a "nazi" government, but it's right there.

Scared????

Because they aren't actual law enforcement. They are trumpian henchmen. Freed from their prisons to do his bidding.

#DEPORTICE !!!

Zoomed in for you. #resist

Internet, do your thing. #resist #teamwork #fightback #notinourcountry #NoTyranny #1789not1938 #revolution

Some postulate they are Proud Boys or Oath Keepers

Me

'Stand your ground' laws work for Democrats, too. We need to start defending ourselves and those in danger from these criminals.

Can’t wait

Someone might recognize them as a Proud Boy if they didn't wear masks.

Call them the Gestapo

Sturmabteilung

💙💙

Are they really ICE agents? They never show ID or identify themselves. I wouldn’t be surprised if they end up being J6 criminals. He pardoned them to be his militia.

💯

Proud Boys.

Just what I was thinking

No Congressional oversight. Where are the investigative pieces in the press about who these masked (mostly men) are? If they aren't identifying themselves, are masked & not providing a means for due process, then they AREN'T law enforcement. They might as well be the KKK.

I am certain that many are members of racist organizations.

Their white hoods are in the laundry, so they are improvising.

Could it be that these are members of the Proud Boys?

You mean the Proud Cowards.

Ask the KKK.

Agreed

bsky.app/profile/snor...

Are they “deputized “ Proud Boys and OathKeepers…?

Jackets that say "Police ICE" can be found on Amazon, and there are a ton of sources for the rest of their non-lethal gear (no actual departmental ID required to purchase).

Agree!

Kkk

Because they’re Proud Boys?

I think the masked ones are proud boys and oath keepers with probably the KKK!

They are exactly my thoughts too. 💯%

I've been asking that question for months.

Because they are not law enforcement. They’re just enforcement.

Let's start a rumor it's for medical reasons and RFK Jr will have those masks removed due to woke?

Voters: Tell your Governors to call up the national guard to protect their residents from the cosplaying ‘ICE’ agents who are actually J6 insurrectionists, proud boy, oath keeper traitors of the United States Constitution.

@governorferguson.bsky.social #nomasks

Because they aren't law enforcement. They're j6/proud boy thugs.

Perhaps ICE agents are secretly j6ers or proud boys.

That is a common theory.

True, but they're not exactly enforcing the law are they.

They are not supposed to arrest ANYONE! And our gov officials, like Congresspeople, can show up at any time and demand entry without the need to make an appt or call ahead. Legally, they must be allowed to enter. The operative word is 'legally'.

I believe they are really Proud Boys and other White Supremacist Gangs

Absolutely! Any criminal could buy a cop costume on amazon.

They're #OrangeHitler's J6ers. They are NOT legitimate agents.

Shame? Fear of being held accountable?
