david streever, 45, a tech worker in rochester NY, was in finland on vacation with his 7 year old daughter last week when his doorbell camera caught two homeland security investigations agents standing on his porch.

His wife, an episcopal priest, encountered them in person when she got home. They told her it was about "an email he may or may not have sent threatening todd lyons," the former acting director of ICE.

Streever had sent exactly one email to lyons back in january, right after federal immigration officers fatally shot two people in minneapolis. In it he told lyons his conscience would torment him for his actions and compared him to a nazi official. That's it. One email, 5 months ago, no follow-up, no pattern.

Here's where it gets stranger. Streever found out the same two agents had visited a poll worker in syracuse that same day, presenting her with a form claiming her instagram account "may have violated the law."

Then, days later, streever flew back into JFK airport from his vacation. A THIRD hsi agent tracked him down at the airport hotel he was staying at that same night and left a business card with the front desk.

The form the agents left said ICE's office of professional responsibility "has identified an email... which it has reason to believe may constitute a violation of Title 19 of the US code" and warned that "receipt of this notice will be taken into consideration should you continue to be involved in any criminal activities."

A free speech attorney at FIRE called it "clearly out of line," saying the government doesn't have to listen to citizen complaints but "doesn't get to dispatch federal agents to your door and stalk you across the state of new york."

DHS did not respond to questions about the case.

Is sending a harsh but non-violent email to a government official's work address now enough to get federal agents tracking your vacation?

America just turned 250. But which America are we celebrating?
There are two countries sharing one flag right now. One where billionaires build bunkers, buy citizenship abroad, and write the rules. And one where the rest of us can't afford to retire, can't afford to get sick, and are being told the solution is more surveillance, not less.
In this video, I break down where we actually stand at 250: the retirement crisis facing ordinary Americans, the accelerating push for digital ID, and what the UK and China show us about where that road leads. This isn't a celebration, and it isn't doom for clicks — it's an honest accounting, with evidence, of why this country feels like it's coming apart. Because it is. The division isn't the disease. It's the symptom. They want you arguing left vs. right. The real line is top vs. bottom. https://youtu.be/8M8B2JlPz4c

Standing at Mt. Rushmore, of all places, Trump has just said in his America250 speech that people that say America is on stolen land, are Communists, evil, and many other things. This just happened just moments ago or I would include more details. This isn't the only thing that has been said that litally points to natives or can be taken as pointed, but again... I had to come and get this started because the irony and full audacity. It's not surprising, really. But even still.

ETA: Speech is now available

The Video Starting Just Before Part Where It Is Referenced

ETA2: For those that don't wish to watch:

“As for those who peddle Marxist lies about our heritage, tell our children that we live on stolen land, or that our heroes were oppressors, they're doing something much worse than slandering our past," Trump said. "They are slandering and attacking our future."

They scream Freedom of Speech but it's only for what them.
