Correction, ICE put out a press release saying it was conducting raids in Chicago after saying they were reconsidering. We don’t have reliable (i.e. independent) information on where specifically was raided, who was detained, etc. (at least, not that I saw in this article).
One of the first steps to resisting any kind of tyrannical government is to stop taking them at their word when they tell you to believe something. They want to hurt migrants but they’re also trying to terrorize them and have every incentive to exaggerate what they’re capable of doing.
Trump administration officials to increase daily arrests from a few hundred to 1,200 to 1,500.
So, where are these people now? The weren’t deported yet.
Most people arrested on immigration charges either stay in custody until they can get a hearing, or get released with a court date. They only get deported after they go through the system and the order to kick them out is finalized. Usually, the court date option works fine, since immigration generally knows where they are, there are options with ankle monitors and things, and they can get in more trouble by trying to avoid it.
At least that’s how it used to be. Now, for all I know Trump is trying to hold on to every single person, but that’s quickly going to become unsustainable as fuck because the facilities were already bursting at the seams. Of course, maybe the misery that will result, and the temptation to say “fuck your hearing, we don’t have time for that” is part of the plan.
Edit: Also, he seems to want to use the military to turbo-kick people out without bothering with the hearing. It’s not clear to me whether that’s what is happening, and I hope not, but that seems to be what he wants to do.
Well that’s just poop. Poop I say.
The plan is to build private facilities (concentration camps) to house these people in and make them pay off their deportation costs by working in sweatshops. The goal is to eliminate the dependency on Chinese labor. And we all know how these people love slaves.
I’d say what needs to be done, but since you are very much in favor of censoring any kind of resistance over in your community, I doubt you’d be willing to here it here.

Yeah, pretty much. And then expand the facilities to house domestic “enemies” once they’ve solidly established the precedent with the immigrants. That’s a few steps down the line, I was talking only about the immediately likely future.
I’m not sure why you want to hold onto an interpersonal grudge with me, instead of listening to a bunch of people in YPTB who tried to show you a different perspective, but I won’t plan to reply to you in the future if it’s going to upset you. I just saw the reasonable question and was aiming to give a reasonable answer, but maybe I should have left it alone, yeah.
I’m not sure of what’s going on with you two, but you seem to be agreeing with each other on most things. Neither of these comments are removable worthy in my opinion, but maybe you both can let it go? I’m not going to track down outside drama.
Sounds good to me. I’ve let it go. Like I said, I just plan not to engage with them anymore. I’m not sure why I thought it would be a good idea to reply to their comment, but it was clearly a mistake, so lesson learned.
Hope you had a good weekend. Everyone in Seattle was out today because the sun was out. It felt like tourist season.
It was alright but I’ve had some sad news and honestly not really dealing with it well. It is ok but weekends have been better, TBH.
The grudge is you banning me for saying “poop” and suggesting we do something about Trump, for which you made your own assumption that I meant to “shoot” him—words I did not say. No rules got broken, you just did it for personal reasons.
I think that deserves a personal grudge where you are not met with kind greetings when you reply to one of my comments. Yes, please be a hypocrite somewhere else. 💩

I can’t let go of shitty mods and their ban hammers, especially when no rules were broken and they’re just silencing anti-Trump speech.
They said they won’t speak to me again, and I have no intention of initiating anything with them. I expect no further issue.
I do recognize and appreciate your patience.
