1 – Liberal newspaper in sanctuary state urges public to record ICE raids and ICE agent activity
The Seattle Times published an article last week literally encouraging the public to record and report any ICE raids or activity by ICE agents that they witness.

The report tells people not to post it on social media lest they “instill unnecessary fear in the local immigrant community.” However, the Seattle Times does give instructions on how to record the activity of ICE agents and report it to the “Deportation Defense Hotline.”

Below are excerpts from the brazen report:

Everyone has basic guaranteed rights in the U.S., regardless of their legal status. You have the right to record activity and interactions with immigration and law enforcement officers, so long as you do not impede them from doing their job. If you are asked to back up, WAISN suggests taking a step back and repeating “I am exercising my right to record and document.”

If officers get too close to you, state that you have stepped back and repeat you are exercising your right to record. You want to remain calm, but speak firmly.

Record the entirety of the incident, and narrate your experience. State the date and time while recording. If you’re going to post online, make sure your information is backed up with evidence. Speak with a first-person witness if you can.

Take notes of what you see. How many officers are there? What are they wearing? What cars are involved, and are they marked? What agency? Are people being questioned or detained? If you feel safe, legally you can ask an officer why they are there.

Additionally, be sure to take note of:

  • Officer identification — agency, badge, numbers, uniform, name
  • The specific address, if possible
  • Language used by the officers
  • Cars — note the license plates and agency if marked
  • Any physical force

Any post you make should include:

  • Date and time of reported activity
  • Street name or specific description of the area
  • Pictures or videos with timestamps

Once you begin documenting activity, WAISN recommends disabling thumbprint or facial recognition protection on your phone. Using a pass code better protects your evidence and information.

In Washington state, you can call the Deportation Defense Hotline at 1-844-724-3737 if you see potential ICE activity.

2 – Below are just some illegal alien criminals busted by ICE in the Seattle area, as the Seattle Times is telling people to snitch on ICE

From Post Millennial reporter Katie Daviscourt: THREAD: Here’s a list of recent arrests by ICE @EROSeattle — child sex abusers, illicit drug manufacturers.

The illegal migrant captured while delivering packages for Amazon on Feb. 1 has been identified as Jiewei Hu, 42, of China. He was sentenced to 12 months and one day in prison after pleading guilty to charges in 2021. Hu operated an illegal marijuana grow op in Lewis County.

ICE ERO Seattle captured Jorge Maradiga, 45, of El Salvador, on February 8 in Seattle. He was charged with commercial sex abuse of a minor in King County in 2023. Maradiga was booked into jail and released on low bail by Judge Michael Scott, court records show.

ICE ERO Seattle captured Shakhrukn Atakhojayev, 33, of Kazakhstan on February 8 in Seattle. The agency said he was unlawfully in the country and is considered to be a public safety threat.

On February 11, ICE ERO Seattle arrested an El Salvadoran “hitman” wanted in his country for murder.

Several of the illegal migrants arrested by ICE this week in Seattle were able to obtain WA state driver’s licenses.

This includes a fugitive “hitman” wanted in El Salvador for murder and a child s—x trafficker. There are serious issues with state laws.

3 – Brazen Canadian ‘coyotes’ smuggling migrants across the northern border — even advertising on TikTok
From the New York Post: Smugglers are brazenly using TikTok to advertise their human-trafficking services across the Canada-US border — undercutting the Great White North’s position as it tries to hammer out a critical deal with the US on tariffs and security, The Post has learned.

For close to a year, the Canadian “coyotes” — who largely target Indian nationals — promise a hassle-free trip to the States for as much as $5,000, with new border-crossing accounts popping up every time others are removed from the platform.

The posts often feature a US flag waving over a wooded northern border, set to Indian music, urging wannabe border crossers to DM them for more details.

“Payment after reach,” reads one post, while another assures “100% safe.”

Northern crossings have fallen from an average of around 4,500 Indian nationals nabbed each month before President Trump took office, to 2,900 since, according to US Customs and Border Protection data — but the Post has identified at least half a dozen of these coyote accounts still operating on TikTok.

The following CBS News report notes that last year, Border Patrol apprehended 564 people trying to enter the United States, who were on the terror watch list. Out of those, 484 were caught at the northern border.

Conservative host Steve Gruber pointed out, “Up until a few weeks ago. Canada did not require Mexicans and some other foreign nationals to have travel visas to fly to the country.”

4 – Border Patrol agents ‘crash a Tupperware party’

The cartels are bringing drugs across the border into the United States in plastic kitchen storage containers.  The Chief Border Patrol Agent in the Tucson Sector put a humorous twist on a social media post, joking that the Border Patrol agents “crashed a Tupperware party.”

5 – Trump Admin Reforms ‘Unaccompanied Alien Children’ Policy to Prevent Trafficking
From Breitbart: President Donald Trump’s deputies have reformed the Democrats’ 2008 “Unaccompanied Alien Children” (UAC) program to shrink migrant smuggling by labor traffickers and by illegal migrant parents.

“This is another big win,” said the Immigration Accountability Project. “It would mean fewer children handed over to sex or labor traffickers.”

But Democrat-affiliated pro-migration groups lament the reforms, which will require government officials to verify the legal or illegal status of people who volunteer to “sponsor” the many youth migrants who are welcomed across the border and housed in government-funded hostels.

“The real goal of this effort is … to use custody and care data on these children to track any undocumented adults supporting them,” complained Jeff Nesbit, a pro-migration deputy in President Joe Biden’s administration. “Sadly, Trump’s immigration enforcement team appears determined to use them as propaganda pieces of a larger — and ugly — political game,” he wrote on February 13.
