True..no one knows what is going on I just think in general, that its never a good idea to announce a raid, because it gives the criminals time to scatter
That was before the surveillance state existed. That announcement lit up the boards so to speak on texts, emails and bank transfers/withdrawals from peeps with deportation orders wondering if they are on the list.
Same as the Iran strike announcement did on surveillance of the mullahs. How many of them checked into a bunker or safehouse in anticipation?
Now Trump looks reasonable and they are the warmongers.
