      The ticker is very relevant. ICE is now a world-ranked military force. They’re building concentration camps. Even if it were actually just for immigrants, eventually they’ll be deported and you have a bulked up secret police and empty gulags just sitting there waiting to be used.

    Ahhh! Jump scare! Clicked the link and suddenly a rapist started talking.

    Its important to communicate that this is not just revoking citizenship or deporting people (a LOT of us would be cool getting a free trip to Europe or Canada…). It is about putting people in concentration camps where they sidestep the legal system because they are not dealing with a citizen.

    In other words, trump intends to throw US citizens who disagree with trump in these camps as well.

    That’s gonna mean politically motivated disappearances, abductions, a.k.a. state sponsored terrorism.

    The question is, can the states protect their own people against the Federal Government?

    I did some research and found that:

    • the Army branch of the military has 500K active troops and 300K reservists. The national guard has 200K troops. Both can be commanded by the president, hypothetically.
    • Additionally, the US has 200K federal police officers (FBI, …) and 900K state / local police officers. I guess this means approximately 1 Million officers are under state control across the whole US?

    Just to give you an idea of troop strengths, in case a civil war does break out.

  • By “bad” he means

    • People who aren’t white
    • People who didn’t vote for him
    • People with the JD Vance baby meme on their phones
    • People who speak out about how corrupt the administration is
    • People who disagree with him

    Yes, this is the same turd that is upset he didn’t win a Nobel peace prize. What makes him think deporting/locking up more than 50% of the population is what a peace revolutionary would do?

    Community organizers and vocal opposition are at the top of the list Palentir is making right now. Scrub your social media and start taking your data privacy seriously if you aren’t already. Degoogle and take your opinons off Meta and Reddit at the very least.

    They’re going to test the waters by going after some brown protestors first, but the end game is all political opponents and uncontrolled opposition.
