Arrested is different than detained.

According to the article it was an actual arrest. CBP said the two people were arrested and taken to Bellingham Station near the Canadian border.

A group of almost 30 was detained briefly and of that group 2 were taken away.

Yeah. 1 of whom his lawyer says is on the legal pathway and following the rules. But during fire season taking away people who aren't criminals is still disturbing. Like arresting Doctors during a pandemic. Seems counter productive.

Detained, they get released same day, arrested, they might be deported or imprisoned.

People have been detained by this version of ICE for days or weeks, but normally you are correct.

It IS hard to get to the truth sometimes. But at least people are making the effort here on Blue Sky instead of buying the lies. Asking questions, getting clarification not trying to make excuses for Dear Leader. Thank you for the follow. So nice of you.

I hate all this but I don’t see any mention of Tribal members being detained.

I heard it on Native TikTok, live, as it was happening. It's over now.

The indigenous firefighters should’ve told the ICE criminals “ we were here first you’re the illegal immigrant. Now GTFO before I arrest you for trespassing”. POC need to start carrying weapons to defend themselves. Those J6 criminal traitors felons have no right.

Natives don't say anything to police or ICE.
