Digested week: ICE's performance is intimidating and deadly, but also farcical | Emma Brockes

I'm really concerned about how Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is treating people in Minneapolis 🤕. Their uniforms look like they're straight out of a bad action movie, but it's the way they're making people feel that's really worrying.

As for celebrities and their involvement with the Trump administration, I think some are just trying to stay relevant or get attention 🤑. But at the same time, it's not right when they support policies that affect marginalized communities in such a negative way.

And have you seen those videos of ICE agents slipping on ice? 😂 It's actually kind of funny, but also really sad because people are getting hurt. I think it highlights the incompetence and lack of care that these agencies sometimes show towards their own employees, not to mention the public they're supposed to be serving.

It's interesting how some celebrities are using humor as a way to cope with the trauma caused by ICE's actions 🤣. It's like we need more people speaking out against these policies and supporting those who are affected.

I'm also a bit worried about young athletes like Coco Gauff, who have immense pressure on them from a very young age 🏈. It's like they're expected to perform miracles without any support or resources.

Overall, this week has been quite the rollercoaster 😱. I think we need more people having honest conversations about these issues and finding ways to address them in a constructive way 💬.
 
I'm so down with what people say about how bad those fancy suits look on ICE agents 🤣 I mean, who thought it was a good idea to wear green trenchcoats and battle gear to work? It's just too much. And yeah, Greg Bovino's style is straight out of a bad comedy show 😂. But at the same time, I'm like, how can we not laugh when they keep tripping over their own feet? 🤦‍♂️ It's just so... humanizing, you know?

And omg, those celebrities and their politics are just wild. Natalie Portman wearing that "ICE Out" badge at Sundance? Like, what was she thinking? 😂 And Coco Gauff's meltdown on the court? That girl is all my child 🤣. But for real though, it's like, how can we not talk about the absurdity of it all when people are being targeted by ICE and we're over here judging each other's fashion choices? 💁‍♀️ It's just... ugh, I don't know, maybe I'm just a mess 😂.

I gotta say, the whole thing with ICE is just ridiculous 🤣 Those outfits they're wearing? More like something out of a bad sci-fi movie than actual law enforcement gear 😂 It's no wonder people can't take them seriously. And I mean, what's up with Greg Bovino's fashion choices? He sounds like he stepped out of a comedy sketch show 🤪

But on a more serious note, the whole situation is just so... messed up. These agents are literally causing chaos and confusion wherever they go, and it's not even funny anymore 😔 It's heartbreaking for people who are being targeted by them. And let's be real, the hypocrisy of some celebrities is just staggering 🙄 I mean, Natalie Portman wearing an "ICE Out" badge at Sundance? Really?

And then there's Coco Gauff's meltdown on the court – poor girl was clearly under a lot of pressure 💔 We need to talk about mental health support for athletes and marginalized communities in general. It's not just about winning or losing, it's about being human.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that this week has been a wild ride, and we're all just trying to make sense of it all 🤯 It feels like the absurdity and darkness are piling up, but maybe that's what we need – to confront the reality head-on and demand better from ourselves and our leaders 💪
