that's a libertarian news site. they fucking voted for this shit they're complaining about

but of course they won't call attention to the irony that the actual terrorists--ICE, DOJ, DHS, etc--are the ones trying to jail everyone except themselves by calling them "terrorist"

They didn't just vote for it. The libertarians literally worked to win Trump the NH Primary his first term. He promised to eliminate 80% of government agencies and they came to him in both senses.

Ewwww... Dare I ask how you came to see that happen? And whose "first hand" it was?

One of the most important defining characteristics of a libertarian is that they have no idea what's going on.

Looking at their front page, it seems like it has an anti-Trump bias overall, was it the opposite before the election? The OP article seems to pretty clearly be calling ICE out for hypocrisy for having their own film crew for propaganda purposes while calling others documenting their actions terrorists.

So, the raids themselves aren't domestic terrorism, eh? Citizens fearing for the lives of their friends, neighbours, family and selves is definitely not terrorism at all. Don't look over here, that's illegal! Dumbasses.

Literally spreading terror to the citizenry is perfectly fine though and very cool.
