    • DHS, in a post on X, said the man “approached US Border Patrol officers with a 9 mm semi-automatic handgun” and that “officers attempted to disarm the suspect but the armed suspect violently resisted.”
    • “Fearing for his life and the lives and safety of fellow officers, an agent fired defensive shots,” the post continued.

    Lies.

    Even if true, the title is straight up misleading bullshit.

    ‘protesters’ is plural, so you mean to tell me it took multiple protesters to bite off a single finger?

    Why do I already smell some level of bullshit? 🤔

    She also posted images of two individuals allegedly involved in the attack, though their roles and identities remain unclear.

    I’ve seen cops do this at protests—they’ll grab a few random, odd-looking people just because they look scary, so they can post their mugshots the next day alongside their narrative of events. Then once the news cycle is over they’re released without charges.

    Hight of - 2 and low of -10 (-19/-27 in C). Yeah that is glove weather.

    Crazy we don’t have 14 different videos of the event, just a photo I cannot even see because its on X.

    What was that finger doing in or near a protesters mouth? And what was the agent doing to the protester at that the time? If you’re unlawfully beating or kidnapping me and I have no other defense, you better believe biting is an option. Keep your hands to yourself and you won’t have this problem.

    “We executed two white American citizens 1300 miles from the southern border. The optics are horrible. Quick, make shit up.”
