In 50 years, history will speak about ICE the way we speak about the SS now.
Many of us have been comparing ICE and the SS since it’s inception alongside the Department of Homeland Security post-9/11.
9/11 ended up being way more successful than Osama Bin Laden could ever have imagined. It just took an extra 25 years for the Republican party to destroy the country from within like he wanted.
Wikipedia recently added DHS to the list of Secret Police organizations. 👀
Department of Homeland Security
This is something that’s always chilled me since they created it. To me, “Homeland” always had that echo of Nazi Germany’s “Fatherland”.
In the same creepy category, the Department of Defense used to be called the Department of War until 1947. Wouldn’t be surprised if they switched back soon.
They won’t. They switched it because it’s easy to justify spending any amount of money on “defending” yourself. If they switched it back, it would cost them some support.
Yup, euphemistic language is preferred. It’s all very Orwellian. Soon the Supreme Court will be the Department of Truth.
Fatherland is still used in many countries/languages, hell even polish uses “Ojczyzna”.
There’s a German furniture store in operation today called Lebensraum, which absolutely gutted me when I first saw it, but it also just means habitat/living space.
“Department of Homeland Security” is almost as oxymoronic as “Military Intelligence” or “Department of Justice”
How is military intelligence oxymoronic?
Have you ever met anyone in active duty? Every single marine is fueled by a six pack of Monster, punching each other in the dicks for fun, and eating crayons for lunch.
I have actually, even talked in depth with a few at a country fayre after the recruiter had pissed off along with on several RAF & Army bases the actual soldiers are generally quite intelligent and those working in SIGINT are often very intellignet.

They’re deporting non-citizens without due process, which means that anyone can be deported. All they have to do is claim they thought someone wasn’t a citizen, at which point there’s no due process for you to prove that you are.
What surprises me most about this encounter is that ICE actually backed off when they saw the guy’s proof of citizenship. It means they actually feared punishment for getting it wrong.
And I will remind everyone who has any melanin at all to get a Passport Card. That’s what this guy likely had, and it was the best $30 he ever spent. Get yours now, before they get DOGEd.
I assume they were hired before this administration. Those hired by the current administrarion would be a lot worse.
For now. I fully expect them to start saying “this is fake” and confiscating it and arresting you, regardless of its actual validity.
And this is the issue with the people saying “only citizens deserve due process”… If you don’t get due process, how are you supposed to prove you’re a citizen?
Things may already be getting iffy at the state department. My wife and I both put in passport renewal requests on the same day in February. She got her new passport in the mail about 2 weeks later. Mine took another 6 weeks.
I heard there are a bunch of illegals near 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Lets get a Militia to perform citizen’s arrest and then ship them to Iran.
Then we declare Morgan Freeman to become the acting president.
Morgan Freeman is a conservative who might very well have voted for Trump.
Its a joke referring to London Has Fallen where the president was take hostage, and Morgan Freeman was VP.
Oh, I think I might have seen that back in the day.
Innocent until proven brown
I think the opposite is more accurate.
So, “Guilty until proven white”?
Brown until proven white
Unfortunately.
Thank you I was trying to figure out how guilty until proven brown worked in this situation.
i hate myself for upvoting you
Brown until proven white and rich.
And even then Im white but Im Mexican born. My brother and I are currently figuring out what we do if we get deported as I lived in Mexico for a few months before being naturalized in the USA.
I’m sorry you’re dealing with this.
As am I. I took Latin in school. Mi Espanol es muy malo pero yo entendiendo mas de me hablar?
Obviously this is incredibly racist. They are just going after non whites, predominantly Latino and Asian, because they are not white. It’s 100% racism.
They are deporting and detaining Europeans too. It’s racism and non-race based xenophobia all at the same time.
“Mistakenly”
…he’s a traitor…take him in…when the records disappear…just a small sin…ffs
