One of the firefighters said members of the crew were told not to take video of the incident
That's your signal to definitely take video.

For real holy shit. For the same reason it's important to have journalists in war zones, this needs documented so people can see what's happening. We absolutely can not let fascists be the source of truth for what's happening out there.
Plus idk about this situation, but at least when I was in Seattle SPD would immediate behave somewhat better when I would start obviously filming them harassing someone.
Thanks to Bob Furgeson, a corporate Dem, for allowing Trump and ICE to operate with impunity in WA.
He has been such a fucking disappointment...
Federal policy under President Joe Biden’s administration stated that without “exigent circumstances” agents would not conduct their operations at natural disaster or emergency sites. Whether that policy remains in place, however, remains unclear.
Willing to bet policy doesn't matter anymore.
Turnip literally deporting the firefighters....
Trump: "THE RESPONSE TO THE FIRE WAS UGLY, THEY HAD NOBODY FIGHTING THE FIRE! THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER"
Just release the files you pedo!
"Papers please. Where's your star?"
They want Washington to burn down. So when they want to perform their Gestapo arrests, stopping firefighters fighting an active fire is just a bonus.
Ironic since most of the wildfires happen in the red/literal KKK half of the state.
But also:
I'm going in!
Fuck with the people who can burn you alive and make it look like an accident... smart.
