This story is about Big Brother spying on Americans by impersonating appliances and Americans impersonating Big Brother in Halloween costumes. Both sides of this coin are entertaining and informative.
Back in 2012 I took my new Harley Davidson motorcycle in for a checkup. There was nothing wrong with it other than my bike was not getting as many miles per gallon as promised. The sales sticker said it would get somewhere around 35-45 miles per gallon and mine was more like 30.
The dealership I was at welcomed customers in their service area at that time so long as you were not annoying, unsafe, or hung around too long. I went in to see my bike being worked on and was stunned to see it all opened up with the front fairing (wind cowling) off and a laptop computer sitting on the seat with wires running to the bike.
I mentioned how blown away I was seeing the innards of my motorcycle when the technician (they are not called mechanics anymore) spoke, “You were complaining about your gas mileage on your bike?”
I confirmed I had concerns.
He said, “I can give you three reasons why your mileage is not as advertised… You travel with your wife a lot, you did a Stage I performance upgrade on your engine, and you like those jack rabbit starts when a light turns green.”
I was stunned! I said, “Wow, your little laptop with Harley Davidson software on it told you all of that?”
He said, “No, my little laptop is hooked up to a big mainframe computer in Milwaukee at corporate and your bike told the server your driving habits.”
That was my first experience of how Big Brother could be watching.
Probably most of us were not too surprised when we learned the CIA, FBI, NSA, or any other division of the government intel community could spy on us through our smart phones, smart televisions, home security systems, etc. But we were shocked when we learned even our other mundane home electronic appliances, like our robot vacuum cleaners, could be watching and listening to us!

As the old expression goes, “What is good for the goose is good for the gander.”
So if the government and big corporate America can spy on us impersonating our appliances, some Americans figured it might be both profitable and funny for Americans to throw on a windbreaker and/or cap with the word “ICE” on it and impersonate government officials.
The logic was most patriotic Americans of all races hate what the Biden-Harris Administration did in their illegal and unconstitutional opening of our border as a threat to our national sovereignty so why not have a little fun creating instant panic with their “newcomers” (aka illegal aliens)?
“Bro Triggers Soy Lib Reporter” – Benny Johnson
So what is pretty remarkable is this Benny Johnson podcaster short reel has received some 2 million views in just 2 days now! Most all the comments are not favorable to the libs or illegals side of this little prank.
CONCLUSION:
As the old expression goes, “This story keeps getting better and better.”
The guy in the ICE jacket was attending the recent Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) convention when confronted by a liberal reporter but he was not your average CPAC attendee, he is somebody truly special.

Brandon Fellows is the same guy who was removed from a House hearing during testimony from Dr. Anthony Fauci last year. Fellows, seated behind Fauci, was seen making faces photobombing Fauci before being escorted out. Fellows yelled out as he was made to leave “Fauci belongs in prison!”
“Jan. 6 Rioter Makes Faces Behind Fauci During House Hearing” – Inside Edition
We checked the Amazon website to verify the jacket Brandon Fellows was wearing was still available this morning and it was not. Impersonating a Federal law officer is illegal but a good lawyer could probably make the case that a jacket or cap that only said, “ICE”, would not be illegal where merchandise that said “ICE – Federal Agent”, would be.
I have a cap collection (cover for military folks) and two of my most prized caps are actual DOJ and FBI caps. I never wear them not just because that might be illegal but because of something my father once said to me, “Wearing either of those two looks like a good way to get yourself shot! Speaking of that, did you ever notice how those guys never travel alone?” My Dad was the best.
It turns out this interviewer was Jason Selvig one half of the “comedy” duo The Good Liars. Their content involves going to conservative events as liberals to get interviews trolling conservative attendees.
This is what made me laugh even harder, the hunters (Selvig) became the hunted (Fellows).
Brandon Fellows absolutely owned Jason Selvig and it was priceless! The interview concludes like this:
Selvig: Do you think that’s funny?
Fellows: Absolutely hilarious. What’s not funny is them illegal aliens coming… (Gets cut off.)
Selvig: There you have it!
Maybe Slevig should stop trying to impersonate a comedian journalist interviewer.
As for me and my family, we cannot wait to see what Brandon Fellows does next to mock the liberal lefty socialists to make them pay for his wrongful incarceration relative to J6 and enemy antics within!
Brandon Fellows is President Donald Trump’s and my kind of guy, “Don’t get mad, get even.”
