    This is exactly what they’ve been setting up, a masked, ID-less, military force that kidnaps people off the street and takes them to a variety of facilities that not even Congresspeople are being let into. No accountability, no oversight, there is likely a lot more abuse than we will ever know.

      It is also directed at people who are already oppressed and excluded from power structures socially and legally. The big news murders were typical white people, for every one of them there are ten or more marginalized people.

        Yeah we almost made some progress after Pretti and Good were murdered. But our representatives have run out of steam since then.

          Reps don’t really care they’re who created and funded ICE in the first place.

    Its been a serious problem for a very long time. I think the way they are constantly dehumanizing detainees is a major factor.

      I think they are cop shaped bastards, but are technically a paramilitary of the executive branch

        Is that not true of other police forces too?

          Other police forces (though excessively militarized) are not lead by and loyal to the executive branch, nor are they funded through special means.

            Correct me if I’m wrong, but I seem to recall that US government structure has all police technically under the purview of the executive branch. It’s what allows the big boys to put in those mandatory reviews or ‘agreements’ with cities that are actively fucked up, right?

    In May 2026, a federal employee who conducted background checks for Department of Homeland Security agents during the Twin Cities ICE crackdown was sentenced for solicitation of prostitution involving a minor.

    “We hired this fox to guard the henhouse. I know what you’re thinking but based on his own report, he’s doing an outstanding job.”
