BREAKING: MAJOR announcement about ICE deployment to US airports




I am so glad I have the option of not traveling through airports anymore. Used to travel every week for work. It was a pain when everything was working fine. If they start arresting Americans in airports, it will shut the system down. Is this a controlled rolling out of chaos before the midterms?

Since it's clearly not "breaking" now.

you would notice that the video was posted on YouTube 6 hours ago. And the producer of the video is the one who put "Breaking" into the title. I added a few words to better describe the topic of the video, but other than that, it is unchanged. Heck, we even have a story on this topic in our Late Breaking News that was posted one hour ago. Why don't you find issue with that "Late Breaking" report and only mine? But I do thank you for your concern.

On edit: Considering my revelations about your comment, maybe you should delete your comment about this post.

Even if he actually announced anything new there, as opposed to the even earlier actual news that Trump wants ICE in airports.

This is not LBN, it's GD. So you can be accurate in your DU titles, and don't have to parrot what the breathless YouTuber said, 6 hours ago. And no, you haven't added anything useful to describe the topic; it appears to be the story that started on Saturday. I clicked on it, thinking something "MAJOR" had just been announced - and it hadn't.

If you're referring to this in LBN: https://www.democraticunderground.com/10143637231 , then that's about a specific appearance in an airport - which your YouTube video is not about.

I pointed out it's not "breaking", but you are happy to continue to shout to everyone that it is.

of the video that put in the "breaking" not me. I just copied it and tried to stay as true to the original title as is possible. That's called integrity. I would suggest you take your grievance to and direct your hostility toward the producer of the video, not me.

If Brian Tyler Cohen turns up here, I'll tell him he's writing clickbait, and shouldn't shout "BREAKING" when he's a day behind the news.

It was barely breaking when BTC posted it. But, he uses click bait headings. Here, we don’t want or need click bait.

But my comment nullifies your repeated justifications. But really, it’s mostly a matter of tone.

That's just the YT algorithm. I follow hundreds of creators, and the thumbnails rarely match the content. The people I follow are worth it though. Very talented and many keep me abreast of the content I'm most interested in. I need to hear some interesting stuff when I'm on my 1-hour walks. BTC is a creator I follow too. Thanks for the post and cheers!

It's been a matter of incompetence since DODGE tore apart the government and now poses physical threats with Trump's ICE thugs manning the scanners.

Our retirement will feature a lot of driving to places close to home. Not exactly what we planned for in our retirement.

One of my goals is to travel to the gravesites and/or libraries of every late President. If I make it to that goal, the old car will have a lot of miles on it!
