Excerpt:
No later than 60 days after the date of this proclamation, the Secretary of Homeland Security shall supplement existing enforcement and removal operations by deputizing and contracting with State and local law enforcement officers, former Federal officers, officers and personnel within other Federal agencies, and other individuals to increase the enforcement and removal operations force of the Department of Homeland Security by no less than 20,000 officers in order to conduct an intensive campaign to remove illegal aliens who have failed to depart voluntarily.
So all the federal budgetary RIFs were for what?
Government employees who reclaim billions of dollars in fraud(CFPB): laid off.
Government employees who break the law and behave more like Nazi SS: we need 20k more.
Says everything you need to know about this government.
I’m ready
Aahh, so the SS is about to arrive
Whoever is going to be in charge should seriously watch his back, though
These are going to be members of white supremacist gangs. Arm yourselves. This is the same thing Hitler did
Everyone who hates ice should apply and then just be shit at their jobs. Deport nobody. Lose paperwork. Say you can’t find the person. Then if you get fired they just hire someone else who’s screwing things up from the inside.
They’ll still be nurnberged afterward.
So, we’re going to have even more poorly trained ICE officers rounding people up to be sent to concentration camps. People who have no idea how to validate documents. People who don’t understand the different types of legal statuses. People who want nothing more than to round up anyone with brown skin, regardless of their status. People who know that due process is dead because we can’t afford five million trials.
Ignoring what anyone thinks of undocumented immigrants, people with legal status are going to get caught in this. Some of them are going to go to camps. Some of them are going to be deported. Some of them are going to die. There will be more and more “mistakes” with no attempt at remediation.
I have no doubt that even citizens are going to die as a consequence of this.
They don’t know the legal nuances, and they don’t care. They just want to kill people they don’t like with impunity, and they will get their chance. There will be an outcry at the first few murders, but then there will be so many that it will become routine, and the news won’t even cover it.
He wants to deputize the gravy seals and have them round up anyone they don’t like.
Beefing up the gestapo under the guise of immigration enforcement. Meanwhile the shelves are starting to dwindle down and things might start to get a bit restless. The “homegrowns” are next…
Y’all constantly go on about that fucking dumb ass 2nd amendment, here’s a threat to your free state.
It’s not a threat to them. They want their christofascist ethnostate.
Apply, interview, whole nine. Take the job, get all the way through the training, then quit or sabotage.
get job in HR, leak all the employment files, names and addresses.
Where’s the money coming from?
ice “troops”?…
This doesn’t sound good.
This is all perfectly normal immigration and customs enforcement. We will call them the “Nice Troops”.
“Troops” is in the title of this post but not in the executive order. It’s editorializing to make a point.
I’m guessing Musk’s iRobot android army isn’t fit for public yet
Holy shit this is bad. There’s already tons of reports of the already expanded ICE field personnel calling detainees “Mexican bitches” and not following well-established law and law enforcement laws and procedures. At least with local law enforcement, you still get some people joining because they’re true believer types that want to really protect and serve. Not everyone, sure, there’s plenty of asshats in local enforcement, but there’s always a few boy scout types that put on the uniform thinking of helping grandma cross the street and stopping actual bad guys instead of shooting minorities. Nobody who wants to do good in the world is going to be joining ICE right now. It’s basically MAGA welfare; get paid to be a gun carrying shitheel whose only qualification is being able to spot brown people. He’s effectively making a gestapo here.
I’m not in any way defending this. This is going to get people killed, including people who are here with legal status. Likely even citizens.
They don’t appear to be accepting just anyone off the street, though. The order talks about deputizing existing law enforcement officers as ICE agents.
The Gestapo were evil but not stupid. The closest equivalent to ICE in Nazi Germany would have been the SA.
That’s a good point. The gestapo didn’t have large numbers either did they?
People in America don’t really know the difference, but we do learn about the Storm Troopers/Brownshirts, and the SS. The Gestapo was kind of lumped in with the military and paramilitaries.
Edit: Thinking about it. We’re at the stage where feds are the SS. The Gestapo was pretty much absorbed into the SS.
