Starting point is 00:00:00 All hell is breaking loose in the streets of the United States as Donald Trump's Gestapo ICE agents are attacking and disappearing migrants and citizens. This is among the most important videos I think we do here at the Midas Touch Network, where we document what is taking place across the country as it is caught on camera. Here's what I want to share with you first, how ICE detained a volunteer firefighter after 3rd, years of service in the United States. His application for citizenship was still being processed, but he always insisted on serving his community. Ice agents swooped into the neighborhood and handcuffed him on his way to work as a firefighter. You will hear him cry out for his wife in the video. His name is Gwilton Guamariga. He has no criminal record. He's lived in the United States since fleeing Ecuador at the age of 15. His wife and three children hope he will be
Starting point is 00:01:04 allowed to complete the application process at his home in Porchester, New York. This is the type of people that Donald Trump's Gestapo is attacking. Here play this clip. Ice agents swooping into a neighborhood in Westchester County and detaining a husband and father as he left the house for work. He's a volunteer firefighter and has lived in the community for decades. Tonight, I would his news reporter Saffan Kim with his family's fight to get him back. The tears rolling down Rosa Shagui's face, bursting through the floodgate that is now her broken heart. Since she was 15 years old in Ecuador,
Starting point is 00:01:40 she and her husband were inseparable until ICE agents detained him last week as he left his house in Porchester, headed to work. With his hands cuffed behind his back, 43-year-old Milton Guamariwa can be seen yelling his wife's name, but Rosa never heard his screen. No idea at the time what was happening. Oh, deeply. Guamarigua works as a marble stone installer and is a volunteer firefighter in Portchester.
Starting point is 00:02:07 The father of three volunteers because he is undocumented, so he can't be paid. But his family says he serves his community because he wants to be more. He was recently trying to go back to college to get a degree in IT. My younger sister who's eight, she asked for my father every single night, night and we lied to her and told her that he's on vacation or like a work trip and for that reason he's not able to come home jocelyn admits her father crossed the border illegally when he was 15 years old but she says in the almost 30 years since he's been here he has never gotten into any trouble she says he is not a violent criminal we reached out to dhs but have not heard back
Starting point is 00:02:50 his family says he is currently being held at calhoun county correctional center in michigan They say he was in the process of applying for his citizenship and they hope he'll be allowed instead to complete that process and be released. Honestly, it's hard not to break down because I know my mom's already struggling a lot and she has my two younger siblings that are both still in school. And we're just trying to honestly figure out how we can make everything work until my dad comes out and hopefully comes home. Portchester, Saffan Kim, Channel 7, eyewitness news.
Starting point is 00:03:27 Now, the next video I want to share with you involves ICE arresting a mother outside of an elementary school during morning drop-off with her two kids in the back seat. You don't think something like that can happen in front of the school, said one parent. Another parent said she's scared by the news, even though a U.S. citizen because she looks Mexican, and if you look Latino, you get attacked by Trump.
Starting point is 00:03:54 and ice. He hates Latinos and Mexico. He just attacks you. Arrest like this have a corrosive effect on schools. One study found that immigration raids have led to a nearly 25% drop in school attendance across parts of California. The principal confirmed that the two children left in the back seat were students at Camerina Elementary School in Chula Vista, California. Just think about that. They take the mom. The kids are left in the seat in the in the back seats in sweltering A hundred degree weather? Here, play this clip. Part of this road was blocked Wednesday morning.
Starting point is 00:04:29 Parents trying to drop off their kids at school watched as ice agents handcuffed a woman just a block away from the playground. Video shows immigration enforcement agents in bulletproof vests, getting out of unmarked cars with flashing police lights near Camerena Elementary in Chula Vista.
Starting point is 00:04:46 I'm surprised that they chose to do it at that time in that area. It was around 8 a.m. on Wednesday. The cars on the road, filled with kids waiting to get dropped off at school. Yeah, it was just surprising. I was like, wow, it's happening right here. Ashley Sina says she saw ICE agents pull over and detain the driver of a white Tesla. I saw them pull out a lady from her car, and she was in handcuffs, and they just brought her over to the SUV.
Starting point is 00:05:14 Sina says there was a little boy and girl in the car talking to agents. Chula Vista Elementary School District confirmed the children are students at Camerena Elementary. The district says it's providing resources and support for the children but could not confirm their location. You don't think that something like that would happen like on the way to school in front of the school. I mean, this is a very nice neighborhood. The superintendent sent out this letter to families in the district, emphasizing this incident happened outside school property. The letter reads there are protocols in place that limit law enforcement from accessing school campuses. It says officials are only permitted to interact with students.
Starting point is 00:05:53 if there's an immediate threat to campus safety. I know they've been around. People, you know, posted on the ring app that ICE is, you know, at the Target or the Walmart. And so, I mean, they're just doing their job. Federal law currently allows immigration enforcement near schools, churches, and hospitals. But agents are required to provide a warrant
Starting point is 00:06:11 in certain private areas of campuses. Pearl O'Shea Hine, ABC, 10 News. Now, this next video I want to play for you involves ICE detaining a U.S. citizen, a five-and-a-half-month pregnant mother of twins. Then agents attempt to blackmail her, saying she'd only get released if she gives info on her husband. You may recognize her. Her name is Sabrina Medina.
Starting point is 00:06:34 She's the same woman who had her house raided by ICE back in June when Christy Noem was shooting those cosplay videos of herself. Gnome was outside waiting for the photo op. Medina said of this recent encounter with ICE, I told my daughters to run. They already used my mom against me. Could you imagine what they'll do with my daughter? Here, play this clip. There is Sabrina Medina. And that is where a five and a half month pregnant mother was just released.
Starting point is 00:07:05 Now, as you take a look at this picture, let us remind you of what took place back in June. That is when Sabrina, 28-year-old who says she is a U.S. citizen, claimed she was showering when ICE agents suddenly entered her home. Not only that, Homeland Security Secretary Christy Gnome was there with ICE agents outside of the home. Now, they said they wanted her undocumented husband, who did serve time for a violent offense, but we don't know exactly what that violent offense was. That day, she was questioned, not released. Now listen. Again, we are just learning this as we are going on air as she tells us what happened today when she was taken away by ICE. to agents. He said that they're after my husband because he doesn't have papers and he has a
Starting point is 00:07:56 criminal record from nine years ago. And they told me that if I turned my husband in, I was going to get released. There's several departments looking for your husband. And she's like, and this is outrageous. She's like, it's already been so much that he's not even caught already. We need to get him. Turn them in. Turn them in and we'll release you. And I was like, I don't know where he's at he's then she told me think about it she's like think about it he's going to be your best bet because if somebody else gets him he's going to get hurt my daughter i told her to run i told her and they're like how could you do that i'm like you guys are not taking my daughter imagine they're trying to use my mom against everything imagine what they would have done with my daughter
Starting point is 00:08:38 so again as you look at this live picture right now this is sabrina speaking with nbc4 as well as our partner, Telemundo 52. You may have a lot of questions. Some of them we still cannot answer for you. We can tell you that Sabrina did tell us that her daughter did run into the arms of relatives. Her daughter is okay. I can't even begin to imagine all of the money that I've spent on skin care and beauty products over the years to battle issues like acne and damaged hair and eczema, change in hair color, rashes, etc. But I recently realized that I was completely overlooking the most fundamental step, the water I shower in.

She is five and a half months pregnant with twins.
Starting point is 00:10:40 Her other daughter managed to run away and find safety with other relatives. This raw footage was obtained by L.A. Taco. Here, play this clip. Are you okay, what's your name? Are you okay? What's your name? My name is? Michael Parker. Okay. Armando?
Starting point is 00:11:46 Armando? Can I have a phone number? No, it's fine, it's fine. Are you okay? No, I'm not. What happened? Why? Why?
Starting point is 00:12:01 Because I actually did you take that? Why is she being detained? Who has my phone? You fuck her! Can you let her get up? What's wrong? What does she do? Now, just as a reminder, this is the local news coverage of some of the first ice raids back on June 12, 2025. I have never heard that Christine Nome is going to be at somebody's house.
Starting point is 00:12:31 A whole team, a lot of people like raiding my house, like it was a show, Sabrina Medina said. This is what happened back in June. And then she just had this interaction again, play this clip. Never heard that Christine Nome is. going to be at somebody's house. A whole team, a lot of people, like, raiding my house, like it was a show. Sabrina Medina showed a surveillance video of agents searching her Huntington Park home at 6 a.m. This morning.
Starting point is 00:12:54 She captured Secretary Christine Nome in the streets with agents. Other video shows known with members of her team putting vests on as agents moved into Medina's home and the home across the streets. I could tell that she was doing a full camera crew production. She was getting hair and makeup done. So she was putting on a show. for people. And I really object to that. That's really not what our government should be doing. LA County Supervisor Janice Hahn, who served with Nome in Congress, came to the neighborhood and said these
Starting point is 00:13:24 operations are frightening families and children. We have kids on this block. So I'm calling on her to stop these raids in our county. They had guns and the other soldiers. They didn't want to put the guns down. Agents caught Medina as she was in the shower and demanded she come out. Throughout the whole process, they have to see me naked, you know. I'm getting changed. I feel humiliated. I'm pregnant. I'm scared.
Starting point is 00:13:48 I'm shaking. Like, what's going on? What's going to happen to me? I feel like a criminal now. I'm four months pregnant. I'm due on November 26. Pregnant with twins. She says agents were looking for her husband, Jorge Saddania, who she says is undocumented and did
Starting point is 00:14:02 serve time for a violent offense. She did not want to tell us what offense. She shared this photo of him with the condition we blur his face. She says he wasn't home this morning. he had left last night after they argued overseeing federal agents surveying their home. I thought my baby was going to come. I thought that with all this scariness, my sugar was going to drop. I didn't, I thought a lot of things, you know.
Starting point is 00:14:24 I was very scared. We should also point out that agents handed Medina a complaint, not a warrant. Medina still let them inside our house. We are told that we're actually, we're not quite sure if any arrests were made at any of these two operations. we did reach out to DHS for comment and have not heard back. Now in this next clip, you'll see ICE tearing down security cameras at a business in Burbank. They shatter the windows, they break down the doors to enter into the business. They said it was a wellness check.
Starting point is 00:14:55 But this is the pattern that ICE uses called wellness checks as a pretext to access homes and schools and businesses to disappear people to concentration camps. Here, play the clip. Look, there's some ice agents and they're trying to arrest people. but when they're not supposed to. Ice agents told somebody that they have to come out of the building. Right here in Burbank, California, I'm never to leave, but in this country, we'd have ice agents right here in our own city in Burbank.
Starting point is 00:15:31 They're trying to storm a person getting some illegal immigrant that didn't do anything wrong but live here in America. They're breaking down the person's door to somebody's place. Now here's another image of one of the new concentration camps going up across the United States. They call it Fort Bliss, but it is a concentration camp. Nothing bliss about it. in El Paso, Texas. This is what they're building the same way they have the Alligator Alcatraz camp.
Starting point is 00:16:45 Here's the Fort Bliss concentration camp. This one's in Texas. Alligator Alcatraz, of course, is in Florida. Let me show you this. ICE is now dressing up as construction workers to kidnap laborers across the country. As part of their Operation Trojan horses, what they're calling it, where they're pretending to be other professions. Then they jump out and then they arrest people and beat them.
Starting point is 00:17:08 and put him into concentration camps. So here's ICE dressed up like a construction worker in Brewster, New York. The agent admitted to being federal law enforcement and threatens more on the way dressed in disguises. Here, play this clip. Yeah, what agency? What agency? I'm not going to tell you.
Starting point is 00:17:27 Why agency are you with? What agency are you with? What agency are you with? It is my business. I am a citizen. Okay. Okay. And then going to West Coast, from East Coast to West Coast, here you have the Trump
Starting point is 00:17:50 Gestapo in Penske trucks as part of Operation Trojan Horse. In MacArthur Park, 20, 30 ice agents loaded in the truck. They jump out and they start chasing migrants, beating them, pummeling them to the ground and throwing them into concentration camps, never to hear or speak from their families potentially ever again play this clip and here they are grabbing the necks of migrants and treating them like their animals although animals should never be treated like this either here play this clip and finally here's one of those other quote wellness checks or welfare checks on first graders ice rated a los angeles elementary school disguised
Starting point is 00:18:37 federal agents told school staff, they had the parents' permission to take kids out of class. They then tried to ID the kids to go after the unaccompanied minors who may have crossed the border. Here, play this clip. Lingering fear in the L-A-USD community after an unusual and disturbing visit. Several federal agents from the Department of Homeland Security showed up at two elementary schools this week demanding to talk to students. What happened next was or has Superintendent Albert. Carvalo praising school workers and demanding answers.
Starting point is 00:19:11 Eyewitness news reporter Sophie Flay explains. What interest should a Homeland Security agent have in a first grader? On Monday, multiple Homeland Security agents showed up at two elementary schools in Los Angeles, according to L-A-USD Superintendent Alberto Carvalo. These agents were stopped, questioned, and turned away by principals at Lillian Elementary and Russell Elementary schools, both in the first. Florence Graham neighborhood. They wanted access to the students to determine their well-being. Based on, according to the agents, the fact that when they entered this country, they entered
Starting point is 00:19:49 those unaccompanied minors. It is well known that these students are under the care of relatives. According to Carvalho, the agents claimed they were not part of immigration and customs enforcement. They conveyed to both principles that the parents or the legal guardians, in charge that these children had provided them authorization for access to these kids in school. That is absolutely blatantly untrue. These agents asked specific questions about students ranging from first to sixth grade. The superintendent says they arrived in unmarked vehicles and wore casual clothing. When the principal was attempted to write down details about their IDs, they quickly hid their IDs.
Starting point is 00:20:34 All parents from these schools were notified about these incidents. Ahead of the November election, L-A-USD staff were trained in protocols to protect students from federal agents showing up at schools. We wonder if this may happen at more schools, if they simply will ram through. So we're having to really lean on the principals, the workers, the teachers. That's what's going on in the United States of America. That's what's happening. Full-fledged fascism in the United States. Horrifically dangerous here in the United States.
Starting point is 00:21:04 Sad to see, but that's what's happening. We have to observe it. We have to know that's what's happening. Hit subscribe. Let's get to 6 million. Thanks for watching.
