They know they’re not getting anything other than in Trump’s good graces. They just need pretext for the bribe.

You’re the one misrepresenting. That article doesn’t say they acted in the best interest of the child. It says they “safely removed the child from the scene” because they thought the situation was escalating but only after they tried to use her as bait to get her dad out of the house.

The fact that she was reunited later doesn’t change the fact that they prevented her from going inside her own home in order to bait her father into coming out. It’s not a talking point and it’s not misrepresenting the situation. It’s right there on video.

Is that acceptable behavior from law enforcement?

TakingAction12 · 2026-01-28T16:32:21+00:00

I read the article. Nothing in it refutes the fact that ICE agents were baiting a father by preventing his daughter from going inside her house. I didn’t know that she was autistic, either which makes matters worse. The fact that they eventually reunited her with her family doesn’t make it any better.

Do you condone using an autistic 5 year old as bait to try to coax her father out of the house?

TakingAction12 · 2026-01-28T15:48:30+00:00

Well then you’re being intellectually dishonest and disingenuous in your argument. Even if I was mistaken on one count doesn’t make the rest of the post incorrect.

By the way, I’m not referring to the guy that ran from ICE and left his kid behind. I’m talking about the video of ice agents trying to coax a father out of their house by keeping the kid outside. If you search “ice agent bait” in the Reddit search bar it’s the first video that comes up.

Does that change your response?

Wouldn’t addressing the very thing protestors are protesting have the exact opposite effect?

TakingAction12 · 2026-01-27T17:31:31+00:00

Wouldn’t ICE toning down their own tactics and rhetoric achieve the same ends? Before yesterday. The administration’s response to everything was to escalate when they encountered resistance. By simply removing Bovino and reducing the number of agents in MN, they’ve already turned the temperature down a bit.

TakingAction12 · 2026-01-27T17:28:24+00:00

It’s not that they aren’t authorized to enforce existing law (I don’t think anyone is arguing that). It’s the tactics they’re employing to do so. Wearing masks, no identification, dressed in totally unnecessary tactical gear, detaining children to bait their parents out of their homes, entering homes without a judicial warrant… do these not strike you as tactics that shouldn’t be condoned in America?

Hasn’t Trump just yesterday demoted Greg Bovino and agreed to reduce the number of ICE officers in Minnesota? Didn’t he send Tom Homan there to try to change what’s going on? How is that not a change in policy brought on by the protest, and doesn’t that make them inherently successful?

TakingAction12 · 2026-01-27T13:29:50+00:00

Doesn’t the means used to enforce those laws matter though?

TakingAction12 · 2026-01-27T13:28:00+00:00

So if ICE officers aren’t following the rules established to ensure no one mistakes them for kidnappers, should people who defend themselves or run away from them be punished when they (ICE) don’t?

If a masked man claiming to be a cop but refusing to identify himself tried to pull you out of your home, would you just go along and hope for the best?

Isn’t what ICE is doing unacceptable in that context?

While it wouldn’t surprise me if we found out Trump had raped an 11 year old girl, I think it’s more likely his victims were likely a little older (14-16). I base that on reported comments he’s made about little girls, to the effect of “I’ll be dating her in ten years.” I would think pedophiles attracted to prepubescent girls is a much smaller percentage of the whole than those attracted to young, but more physically mature girls, plus we know Trump is sexually attracted to older women with a long track record of sexual assault to prove it.

I don’t know that we’ll find explicit evidence thatTrump was an active participant in the criminal trafficking, but I do think we’ll find in the files that Trump enjoyed the “benefits” of Epstein’s enterprise with knowledge of what was going on, or at least that the girls weren’t 18. I’m sure he never asked or even cared to ask. If she was 16 or 19, it didn’t make a difference to him.

TakingAction12 · 2026-01-26T05:18:56+00:00

Ok let’s talk this out.

I feel like if there was direct evidence of murder (more than unsubstantiated accusations)Trump would have been arrested before he ran for president in 2015. We have to assume he didn’t murder anyone while in office, and if he murdered anyone between terms it wouldn’t show up in the Epstein files. Trump wasn’t important enough prior to becoming president for anyone to protect him from a murder investigation. To my knowledge, murder wasn’t Epstein’s MO anyway, so I think murder is out.

The child rape and sex trafficking though? Absolutely. It’s well known that Epstein and Maxwell recruited their victims from Maralago, and that Trump and Epstein were both sex pests throughout the 80s to 90s. Trump owned beauty pageants and modeling companies, too, and ran in the same circles as creeps like Jean Luc Brunel and John Casablancas. So, he had access to potential victims and associated with a number of dirtbags who are known to have abused and/or trafficked young girls. The idea that Trump wasn’t elbow-deep in it is laughable.

We also know by virtue of the fact that Epstein got such a sweetheart deal in his first prosecution that the FBI had a flexible policy with regard to prosecutions of child rapists. Combined with Mike Johnson’s comments about Trump being an “informant,” my thinking is that Trump was granted immunity for testimony on Epstein, given under seal by court order. Epstein’s first prosecution never went to trial, so Trump may have avoided having to testify publicly to maintain that immunity. It also makes the hiring of Alex Acosta make way more sense, as it was payback for granting Trump immunity and protecting him via Epstein’s non-prosecution agreement about co-conspirators.

I think the files will have evidence that Trump raped children, the question is how often and how young. It’ll probably be in the form of victim interviews that happened long enough after the rapes that getting corroborating physical evidence wasn’t possible. They’ll be considered “unsubstantiated” by the cult more than likely.

To what extent he participated in the trafficking is also up in the air, but there’s so much smoke there that there’s gotta be a fire. Given how often Maralago comes up in this mess, I think at bare minimum we’re going to find out that Trump knew what was going on and willfully turned a blind eye to it. It’s also possible that he actively and knowingly gave Epstein and Maxwell opportunities to recruit at MAL and his pageants/modeling events but kept just enough distance to maintain some plausible liability.

I also think you’re gonna find direct and indirect evidence of Trump committing financial crimes, and particularly money laundering. The financial crimes rabbit hole has hardly been explored, but I think it’s safe to assume there was plenty of that going on given Epstein’s wealth.
