Independent journalist Michael Schellenberger drops a narrative grenade 💣—and it flips the script.

Hosted by Tara, this episode examines new video evidence showing that ICE officers weren’t over-policing—they were under-policing, and the consequences were fatal. Tara breaks down Schellenberger’s argument that Alex Preti became a casualty of selective enforcement, political propaganda, and a culture that teaches activists they can violate federal law without consequences.

From January 13th video footage to federal statutes like 18 U.S.C. §111, this episode dissects how obstruction, intimidation, and assault against federal agents have been normalized—and why failing to act now puts ICE officers and federal officials in real danger 🚨.

This isn’t about protests.

It’s about lawlessness, deterrence, and what happens when the law stops being enforced.
