Thanks to Trump's megabill, ICE will soon be supercharged and more dangerous than ever—but it’s also vulnerable. Dig into what to expect as Trump builds his very own Gestapo here:

Hitler’s Brown shirts and SS were also goons who got a uniform to legitimize their hooligan and criminal behaviors. I worry that at some point, Trump and his minions will make some excuse that homeland security is being threatened and give ICE more power in addition to immigration enforcements.

Even the Gestapo didn’t hide behind masks. ICE is utter scum. What kind of person thinks ‘hell yeah that’s a job for me?’ A racist, a fascist, a sadist, that’s who.

'One of its cruelest moves has been to remove Temporary Protected Status from people who arrived here legally, throwing them overnight into the “immediately deportable” list.' This is also classic Trump. It's how he did business. Break promises, change the deal. Screw everyone.

One more thing that piece reminds us of is that the US pays more on its military than the next 10 nations combined—who represent 43% of the world's population. The US is 4.2% of the world's population. On a continent with no enemies. What are we so damned afraid of?

Even if they're supercharged, it's unlikely they'll use the money wisely. At best, without oversight or auditing, the top brass will use most of the money on themselves and the very minimum on hiring those without morals or logical thoughts. At least half of them would become multimillionaires.....

This is true. This is a very dangerous situation. We need to get trump out of power asap. Worth noting that there’s a finite amount of the type of asshole that wants to/can do ICE type work. Currently, ICE has very low morale and I wouldn’t be surprised to see them bleed employees.

Vote them out and then hold them accountable. The precedent of “moving forward together” is horseshit with this criminal GOP. Anyone in Congress who helped plan and coordinate J6 is a domestic terrorist and should be treated as such.

Let there be no place where these ICE officers can hide. As was the case post WWII - those who carried out the orders should be held accountable in a court of law. Claiming they were just following orders is no defence from justice.
