I tried not to make rules for this community but y'all wylin'. I'll keep it quick and to the point:

  1. Mildly biased headlines and articles are fine, but please do not share opinion pieces or strongly slanted articles here.

  2. Reporting content that does not break those rules prohibited.

  3. Baiting and drama farming is prohibited. If you're not sure whether or not you're in this category, ask yourself if what you're about to post or comment adds to the discussion of the topic at hand, or if you are trying to get a rise out of someone, make bad-faith accusations against one's character, etc. There's some leeway here because I have a sense of humor though, so don't let this rule scare you.

  4. Endorsing or supporting extrajudicial, nonexecutive or nonwar violence is prohibited.

  5. Using slurs is expressly prohibited.

  6. Using the Poisoning The Well fallacy to attack sources shared in a post is presently not allowed (this rule may change in the future, and isolated instances will not subject you to a permanent ban)

Immigration and Customs Enforcement, in the first days of the Trump administration, has made hundreds of arrests of illegal immigrants across the U.S.

hilarious to think that law enforcement waited until now to arrest people for violent crimes. only a bunch of po-dunk morons would believe that.

If you look at news sources that aren't Fox, they mention that there were about that many arrests per day during bidens presidency, too; it's a big country.

I'd believe that there would be some people in government who would hold off of arresting known threats to make Biden look bad/trump look good. There's plenty of documented evidence of that sort of thing going on in the past.

I bet some of the scary examples they sprinkle in there were cases like that, or cases where ice just took custody from local police and called it and arrest.

The dramatic difference is that ICE will probably start deporting the people they arrest now if they're not here legally.
