The ICE Martyr and Other Weapons of Mass Effect
The opportunists are movements, nations, and wealthy individuals who are funding these astro-turf riots and protests

I recently wrote a column at sbcurrent.com about the useful idiots protesting against ICE arresting illegal aliens who have already been convicted of child molestation, rape and murder.
A reader named Nick, in the spirit of Jeff Foxworthy, offered a few thoughts of his own on the column:
If you think ICE is more dangerous than the convicted rapists and killers they’re trying to deport…
you may be a useful idiot.
If you think “Abolish ICE” is a serious policy proposal but “enforce existing law” is fascism…
you may be a useful idiot.
If you are outraged about deportations, but a 12 year old rape victim barely moves the needle…
you may be a useful idiot.
If you believe every viral video with zero context but roll your eyes at court records and rap sheets…
you may be a useful idiot.
If you trust anonymous Twitter threads more than judges’ sentencing documents…
you may be a useful idiot.
If you think “sanctuary city” means “safe space for everyone” instead of “revolving door for repeat felons”…
you may be a useful idiot.
If you’re convinced ICE is the Gestapo, but you’ve never once looked up who they actually arrested in your state…
you may be a useful idiot.
If you’re more offended by the term “illegal immigrant” than by the words “child rape conviction”…
you may be a useful idiot.
If you’re sure America is a police state but somehow still feel perfectly safe screaming at armed officers on camera…
you may be a useful idiot.
If you think George Soros is a myth but your favorite organization proudly thanks his foundations in the footer…
you may be a useful idiot.
The ICE Martyr and Other Weapons of Mass Effect
The dreadful truth? If Rachel Good had been murdered by one of the illegal alien killers ICE was seeking to arrest in Minneapolis, would anybody in her activist circle, including the media, be asking for justice? If they did, it would be a first.
The mission of our heroic ICE agents that has been lost in all the spin? As reported by Fox News: some of the “worst of the worst” criminal illegal immigrants arrested in Minnesota include:
Sriudorn Phaivan, a Laotian illegal immigrant, was convicted of strong-arm sodomy of a boy and strong-arm sodomy of a girl, another aggravated sex offense, nine counts of larceny, unauthorized use of a vehicle, four counts of fraud, vehicle theft, two counts of drug possession, obstructing justice, possession of stolen property, receiving stolen property, burglary, and check forgery. He had a deportation order going back to 2018.
Tou Vang, a Laotian illegal immigrant, was convicted of sexual assault and sodomy of a girl under the age of 13 and procuring a child for prostitution. Vang has had a deportation order since 2006.
Chong Vue, a Laotian illegal immigrant, was convicted of the strong-arm rape of a 12-year-old girl and kidnaping a child with intent to sexually assault her. Vue has had a deportation order since 2004.
Ge Yang, a Laotian illegal immigrant, was convicted of strong-arm rape, aggravated assault with a weapon, and strangulation. Yang has had a deportation order since 2012.
Pao Choua Xiong, a Laotian illegal immigrant, was convicted of rape and child fondling. Xiong has had a deportation order since 2003.
Kou Lor, a Laotian illegal immigrant, was convicted of rape, rape with a weapon, and sexual assault. Lor has had a deportation order since 1996.
Hernan Cortes-Valencia, a Mexican illegal immigrant, was convicted of sexual assault of a child and DUI. Cortes-Valencia has had a deportation order since 2016.
Abdirashid Adosh Elmi, a Somalian illegal immigrant, was convicted of homicide.
Gilberto Salguero Landaverde, a Salvadoran illegal immigrant, was convicted of three counts of homicide. Landaverde has had a deportation order since June 2025.
Gabriel Figueroa Gama, a Mexican illegal immigrant, was convicted of homicide. Gama was previously deported in 2002.
Galuak Michael Rotgai, a Sudanese illegal immigrant, was convicted of homicide.
Apparently, Democrat party activists, like Rachel Good, would like the verbiage on the Statute of Liberty to read “give us your murderers, pedophiles, rapists, and terrorists- the truly wretched refuse yearning to be free”.
Now, let’s talk about the historical political context here.
Remember the p**** hat protest that called for Trump’s impeachment before he was inaugurated the first time? Then we had Marcia, Marcia, Marcia, er, excuse me, that was the Brady Bunch. I meant to say Russia, Russia, Russia. And how can we forget Michael Brown, of “hands up don’t shoot” fame; George Floyd, no introduction needed; J6, which may have involved more undercover provocateurs than genuine protestors; the numerous prosecutions to put the Donald behind bars so that he couldn’t run again; Hamas, a terrorist organization that can do no wrong even after massacring over 1,000 Israeli civilians; the no kings movement which somehow morphed into “make dictatorships safe again” for the likes of Maduro; then finally, federal agents who are charged with enforcing immigration laws are now labeled Nazi scum.
And I am sure I missed several because, well, I am exhausted. As one pundit explained it, the left is very good at raising a veritable army of useful idiots (they are nothing more than proverbial lemmings), true believers (they wrongly believe they are fighting for the moral high ground), opportunists (the people pulling the strings and dousing gasoline on the fires) and cowards (the people who know better but won’t say a word or lift a hand. How could Senator John Fetterman be the only democrat that sees through most of this manufactured hysteria?).
It is not like the truth isn’t out there. Dr. Rachel Ehrenfeld, PhD in Criminology, has trained the CIA, Homeland Security, and the Department of Defense, not to mention having counseled parliaments, presidents, and prime ministers around the world, on her subject of expertise- “Economic Warfare and the Weapons of Mass Effect”. That is, the suppression of free speech, disinformation campaigns, political subversion, indoctrination, lawfare, corruption, and terrorist financing among many other subjects.
To make a long story short, the opportunists are movements, nations, and wealthy individuals who are funding these astro-turf (they are anything but authentic grassroots) riots and protests with a view towards weakening the United States from within. The funders include China (the CCP), CAIR (the Council for American-Islamic Relations) and the Muslim Brotherhood, George Soros and son, and one person you may never have heard of, Neville Singham, a U.S. billionaire with ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), that may be linked to the ongoing riots and violence in Los Angeles, California, as well as the far-left organization Code Pink, currently being investigated by the House Oversight Committee. Hopefully, Senator Ted Cruz’ bill will hold the financiers accountable for the mayhem they are creating on the streets of America.
Rachel Good, who was killed while allegedly trying to run over an ICE agent (who had already been run over previously) in Minnesota was, according to the New York Post, a member of “Indivisible Twin Cities”, which itself was an offshoot of the Indivisible Project in Washington, D.C., which had received nearly $8 million from Soros to “defeat the Trump agenda” and that is what all of this is really about.
What does that mean for practical purposes? Like many of the other useful idiots and true believers, Rachel was trained to follow, resist, and obstruct ICE. Obviously, her training didn’t bother to inform her that using a car against an officer is considered a use of deadly force. But, hey, the puppet masters got what they really wanted, an ICE martyr, as Daniel Greenfield of the David Horowitz foundation characterized her value for the cause, the equivalent of what George Floyd accomplished for Black Lives Matter.
Your mission if you choose to accept it? Please share this with a useful idiot – our community is full of them.
