    County supervisor Juan Miguel Martinez said “ There has been NO CONFIRMATION that there was a Puerto Rican family picked up by ICE for speaking Spanish outside of Walmart, this story is FALSE. I have been working with Alders and orgs to verify this and nothing has been confirmed.

    Remember that when we spread misinformation, we are helping the people that want to destroy us. It isn’t your fault though, misinformation has gotten so sophisticated it is hard to tell what is and is not real. Let’s stay vigilant. Let’s not freak out. Let’s keep working.“

    Stop listening and believing things right on the spot, please do your research look into it. Because all you do with stuff like this is spread false information. As soon as I read what you said I looked into it and I couldn’t find nothing to verify it so you are spreading false information

    Seems like someone’s not being honest with you actually. I don’t base my opinion off of one thing that I see. I don’t see one new segment from a specific news channel and say yup that’s what I believe. It doesn’t matter if it’s right wing news or left-wing news or non-biased news If I see something I do deeper research into it and then I come to a conclusion. In this case the Puerto Ricans that supposedly got detained by ice for speaking in Spanish is a completely fabricated

      I’d believe it all except you leave out any details. Almost like this is a canned response for any allegation of ICE detaining Puerto Ricans. Because to be clear, a simple Google search reveals there are multiple allegations of multiple instances.

      No amount of sane washing is going to push this under the rug.

        This is literally from the county supervisor from Milwaukee. It’s wild that someone proves a point to you and you don’t wanna believe it just because you wanna Believe what’s already in your head. There is no credible source about this story whatsoever you are literally spreading false information and lies just so people can agree with you.
