Border Patrol agents conducted an operation at the site of Washington state’s biggest wildfire this week, and a Washington congresswoman’s office confirmed two firefighters were arrested at the site where first responders are working to contain the blaze that’s already torched almost 9,000 acres in the Olympic National Forest.
I thought these immigrants were supposed to be rapists and criminals. Why are they targeting the ones helping their community???
Is it possible that there just aren’t enough “dangerous” immigtants?
They need to meet their quotas and sell a narrative to ensure people don’t realize Republicans are the real enemies.

“Trump has undercut our wildland firefighting abilities in more ways than one—from decimating the Forest Service and pushing out thousands of critical support staff, to now apparently detaining firefighters on the job,” she said in a statement. “This administration’s immigration policy is fundamentally sick. Trump has wrongfully detained everyone from lawful green card holders to American citizens—no one should assume this was necessary or appropriate.”
Under the Biden administration, the Department of Homeland Security said it would not conduct immigration enforcement “at locations where disaster and emergency response and relief is being provided” such as evacuation routes or areas where emergency supplies are being distributed.
Not sure if you’ll be getting priority the next time a fire breaks out at an Border Patrol facility.
How easy would it be to do this? Asking for a friend.

Could be arranged to be very soon.
So much winning. USA! USA!
Shouldn’t they be helping?
Their plan is to let the fire spread to the border to act as some kind of hazardous flaming wall to prevent border crossings.
Ah yes, that makes sense along the <checks notes> 15 mile wide stretch of water that separates that area from Canada.
Well duh, hot things are too hot to cross. That’s why they painted the Mexico fence black last week remember? If the fire heats the water too much they can’t cross it. It’s genius is hear, genius!
I love that they painted the American side of the wall, and not the Mexican side.
They could also just pollute the water to the point it catches on fire. And who said that only that section of border was their goal? They want a wall of flames from coast to coast.

Cleveland: can we also bring balloons?
They haven’t helped anyone in their lives other than themselves, why would they start now?
I feel safer. Does everyone feel safer. /s
