The 'Trump Derangement Syndrome' has infected the brains of 'Never Trump' and Democrats (but we repeat ourselves) to the point they share completely inane things as fact and never even question the veracity of a post.
A few months ago, there was a 'trend' on TikTok of parents pretending to arrest their toddlers for various funny reasons. The caption might say 'Guilty ... of waking up 5 times last night' or 'Guilty ... of smearing diaper cream all over their walls while Mom went to the restroom'. Funny little parenting quips like that.
One of the parents happened to actually be a police officer in real life and he made a funny video 'arresting his toddler' while he was wearing his uniform. Note: no toddlers were actually arrested for these 'crimes' and no little kid was harmed. That's obvious to most people who aren't Democrats. Anyway, someone took a clip of the police officer Dad 'arresting' his kid and claimed ICE was out handcuffing babies. Eyeroll.
This post and allegation are fake & false, that’s not even an ICE agent or any kind of federal agent. It’s a screenshot from a TikTok video in July compilation on juvenile crime the child in cuffs was a parody. But Cato’s @David_J_Bier couldn’t bother to do 20 secs of research,… pic.twitter.com/sXH1obMLVs

One might hope someone from the 'Cato Institute' might have some critical thinking skills. One would be wrong.
Within a year, they went from “we’re only targeting the worst of the worst” to “we’re zip tying American children that we pulled out of their beds in the middle of the night.”#FuckICE pic.twitter.com/9vs9Y71dai

Then, the posts started going viral. Community Notes was trying to keep up, but a lie spreads halfway round the world before the truth can get its pants on.

And zero integrity.
A leftist listener on Friday threatened to make me “the next martyr” when I doubted the authenticity of this.🙄 https://t.co/CwIXmc9EFN

That is why lies like this are so dangerous. A mentally unstable person sees this and thinks they should go slaughter ICE agents to protect kids. It puts people's lives in danger.
CATO has been anti-ICE for years. I've countered and gone against David Bier during Congressional testimony last January. He has always been annoying and a leftist. https://t.co/y3QlpzHTI4

ICE agents were literally boxed in by a woman carrying a semi automatic weapon this morning.
Look out for inaccurate pictures like this which depict real events. People who do this don’t help the cause of ICE accountability pic.twitter.com/ZWw3KAbMlL

When Bier finally admitted the picture was fake, he couldn't even apologize. He said the picture is a fake depiction of a real event. Where is his evidence toddlers are being handcuffed? Just apologize and say you were tricked, for goodness sake.

I got caught perpetuating fake news bc I didn't bother to do a few seconds of fact checking and the story fit my preferred narrative. Now I'm deleting my post, putting the origin poster on blast & making myself look like an upstanding citizen.https://t.co/m1irmZw4Dd
Wow @David_J_Bier 👇🏻 maybe as Bill says do your research first https://t.co/jE9FgEUGgk

What a concept.
Editor’s Note: The Schumer Shutdown is here. Rather than put the American people first, Chuck Schumer and the radical Democrats forced a government shutdown for healthcare for illegals. They own this.
