Plain clothes DHS agents HID THEIR IDs when demanding to see FIRST GRADERS in L.A. Elementary Schools [View all]

ON EDIT: Per the comments below, I've learned that this is NOT "BREAKING," as the Bluesky poster states. Apologies for that. I normally don't post things like this if they don't carry a link. This one had the news story embedded via video, so I took it as legit, but didn't know it happened in April until it was pointed out to me.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”

They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.
