The allegations of fraud made by the people invading my home and terrorizing my friends? I’ll take those with a grain of salt.

And for the record, I’m not afraid of ICE, never said I was. ICE is racially profiling people, arresting them without cause, and deporting them without due process. I happen to be white, so that doesn’t apply in my case. It’s also coincidentally the same reason I feel safe posting a comment like this online. Free speech is being chilled in communities that ice targets, and I feel responsibility to relay what I’m hearing.

ICE also just gunned down a US citizen in the street, and that should scare everyone.

They’ve shot and killed American Citizens

Police shoot and kill American citizens all the time.

Obama authorized the bombing of American citizens.

Those who are authorized to commit violence tend to do so. That in itself is not really saying much.

Because if an ICE agent violates your constitutional rights, you have zero recourse. There is no freedom.

If you're not afraid of that, you got your head in the sand.

Currently going on? You mean the ones which were prosecuted a few years ago? Or are you talking about that "journalist"'s YouTube video that was hyped by the government to cause misinformed rage?

Yes I am talking about that "journalist"'s YouTube video, like I said the evidence out there is accessible on the Web. If there is a nanometer evidence that implies your tax money goes to Somalians bank account, you need to investigate that.

Your question is essentially equivalent to "Why are you scared of the Gestapo if you aren't a Jew?"

It's not a coincidence that a winner of the Nobel Prize gifted his medal to the then Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels[1], exactly as María Corina Machado gifted her Nobel medal to Trump. History doesn't repeat itself, but it sure does rhyme. If you close your eyes to all these similarities, you're going to be in for a big surprise.
