Misti Kristi, now known as Ice Barbie, continues to conduct a master class in administrative incompetence and corruption

 

Headline:  Daily Beast, 5/30/2025

Ewan Palmer reports:

An undocumented migrant arrested on suspicion of threatening to kill President Donald Trump may have been the victim of a setup, according to an explosive report. 

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, dubbed ICE Barbie for her stylized anti-immigration photo ops, has accused 54-year-old Mexican national Ramon Morales-Reyes of writing a letter explicitly threatening to assassinate the president. 

Investigators now think Reyes did not write the letter and it may have been penned instead by someone else attempting to frame him in connection to a separate robbery and assault case in which Reyes is the victim, unnamed law enforcement sources told CNN. 

Officials suspect the actual author of the letter may have written it in Reyes’ name in an attempt to have him deported before their own case goes to trial.
