Leftist outlets have swapped "deported" for "disappearing people", framing it as "ICE is kidnapping and disappearing people"

Mainstream news outlets would say "arresting and deporting illegal aliens"

In 2026, progressive outlets began using "kidnap" in place of "arrest", for example "the police kidnapped their father for missing child support payments"

yeah, words like that totally shape the narrative - "deported" sounds routine, "disappearing" makes it sound sinister. classic spin

totally - at this point I just cross-check everything with a few sources to cut through the noise

When you listen to 5 different news sources, you sort of think the one thing they all agree on may be close to true

One from the far left, one from center, one from far right and one from the libertarians... mix in the stuff from X too 😉

solid plan - that spread of sources keeps it balanced without the echo chamber bs. X adds the raw takes too
