Some of them have pushed back.

But I remember when tech companies complained about government overreach in previous administrations, and now I guess they're just handing over this information.

But to me, this is a big deal.

I mean, ICE has been running amok around the country and American citizens are angry.

And you know what?

Saying something bad about ICE is not a crime.

Put it posting where they're patrolling and where they're operating.

Yeah, well, you know, ICE agents have warned protesters that they would be recorded and identified with facial recognition technology.

Right.

And the borders are like Tom Homan has come out and said, you know, if you're impeding or interfering, which in their mind is is pretty much anything, you're going to go into a database of people.

I mean, this is like Chinese communist government stuff, mass government surveillance.

Yeah, well, it's chilling, and it's also intimidating people.

It's hurting your basic right of First Amendment free speech.

And I think what's interesting here is the DHS spokesperson, her name is Tricia McLaughlin, and she said, well, this database doesn't exist.

She just left her post this week.

Miles Taylor, who has been on this show before, he's a great patriot who...

was in DHS during the first Trump administration.

He was the DHS chief of staff.

He wrote an op-ed a couple of weeks ago, which I thought was really insightful.

He basically said, look, I was a part of building DHS.
