Boycott the Olympic games if ICE comes to italy, melt ICE, never forget Renee Good and Alex Pretti
In Italia abbiamo già le basi USA, perché devono venire anche gli agenti ICE? Io questi criminali incapucciati non li voglio!
They are taking their problems to my country just to make a political statement.
Classic yankees smh😤
No Trump Mercenaries in Italy.
Fuck it!
I feel the need to say this as an American because us people are getting hate it on for Trump but I would caution when Trump come The fact that he wants to come I've been studying and watching every movie makes from the get-go I've never liked him he's up to no good I would not let him come in my country he just wants to come over there and snoop in the next thing you know he's going to start chaos with y'all look at all these countries he's already started chaos with I'm just warning you this man is evil He's probably one of the evilest people I've ever seen
And so they should.
The total lack of respect is mind boggling.
Ban the US from the games
bravo peuple Italien!!
Lets hear prime minister response to this😊
We are not rejecting anyone, we love ICE and Bovino
Abbiamo i nostri poliziotti. L'ICE non sono graditi.
"Homeland of democracy" – since when? European democracies have been superior for many decades and the original concept is European too.
How do you get the hairbrained idea to send US IMMIGRATION officials to Italy?!
My God, the levels of stupidity that the US is able to reach…
independently from all the controversy, ICE is an American law enforcement company that has the specific task of checking immigration and customs according to American laws. As such, they do not operate according to the ITALIAN laws for custom and immigration.
Given that, there is absolutely no legal justification, nor legal precedence, for their presence here.
The FBI? the Secret Service? unwarranted, but given their investigative and security-oriented purpose, justifiable. But a border control agency? ruling over a foreign country's border? absolutely not
IF ICE AGENTS ATTEND THE OLYMPIC GAMES IN ITALY, THE REST OF THE COUNTRIES SHOULD REFUSE TO PARTICIPATE
Fuck that shit. Don't bring ICE here!!!
It’s exactly like the eastern block athlete teams in the 80’s, having a lot of ”leaders” with them, to keep them from defecting to the west. US don’t want to drain their athlete ranks too.
Watch out, the admin wants to smuggle the 2 killers out the country. It would explain why no secret service. They will not go along with protecting those criminals.
Italians understand fascism well and they don’t want any fascist agents in their country. Proud of you my Italian friends
🎉🎉🎉
ICE isn't needed ANYWHERE.
what even would be the justification for ice? officially they're immigration control, fuck are they doing in a different country
Ovviamente! Non avete visto i cartoni morti 😂
I’m British and I’ve never been happier that the olympics isn’t here. ICE aren’t welcome anywhere.
USA Marshalls can protect the athletes from terror attack….not Ice. Italy has thousands of police and military trained for this. They don’t need Ice.
As an American, I urge you to disqualify the US Olympic team. The US is committing human rights violations on immigrants and their own American citizens.
Italians also REJECTED laws and democracy under MUSOLLINI!
As part of the global push toward fascism, fueled by billionaires, I'm convinced that the Italian GOVERNMENT will welcome ICE. Il Duce lives.
Abolish ice!
"TILL MY BALLS GET TOO COLD" I LOVE THIS FUCKING GUY!! GO VIKINGS!!! Global Workers' Rights!! Jai Krishna,Rama,Sita. Stop the genocide in Gaza!!! Free Gaza, free the World!!! DecColonizeYourSelf!!! A two state solution today!!Zohran Mamdani is the Mayor of NYC. The greatest City in the World! The City of Sex, love, and freedom!!!! Now we eat every day, pop good bottles of Tequila and pop it back on the dance floor, we live every moment, love the beauty of every woman, spread real freedom and joy, build the future of our greatest ancestors!!! Now we all go to White Castle after making out and taking shots of Tequila at the club!!!
What are you talking about?????? YOU control who comes into your country….. Certainly NOT the ICE goon squads and certainly not winnie, donnie trumpie. They are not going to cross the border wearing their ICE goon outfits, so you check everyone's luggage. You find something you don't like, masks, bullet-proof vests, etc. no entry. It's as simple as that. End of story……. YOU control what happens in YOUR country…..
Doesn't Italy have enough ice and snow for the Winter Olympics?
So..ISLAMIC brotherhood is working 😅😅😅 after a few years thank me..😅😅😅 my Question to Islamists in brotherhood.. whats your charter year?? ie ITALIA MISSION 20??
At this point,as an italian,USA is a totally joke. When I was kid my dream was USA,now I grow up and BY THE GODS I stay at my country.
That's our damn PM who's Trump's bootlicker. As an Italian, I want this madness to stop.
La polizia ICE dovrebbero metterla anche in italia. Trump e' un grande!
While we try to make a Europe, we are going to suffer them, I don't care is a rich galà
Bull, Ice is there to intimidate people, threaten people, hurt people. Trump is still trying to take over Greenland, Canada. Mexico, Cuba, Columbia, Panama. Maybe other areas. Trump wants to be God of the entire world.
The last gentlemen to speak is my new hero.
The US exported so much democracy to the rest of the world over the past 80 years, that they dont have enough left for themselves.
ICE deals with immigration. Homeland Security deals with security.
No 😮
"skeptical" is understating it
No ICE! Maranza Olympics 2026!
DONT INVITE THEM THEN…..its quite simple. 🙄
I heard a person say to ICE .. vai a cagare in mare (allegedly).
Italy push back before Trump tries to take over ….it's disgusting what they are doing to their own citizens
