GOP Budget Bill Would Make ICE “Largest Federal Law Enforcement Agency” in U.S. History
The budget bill just passed by the Senate provides more than $170 billion in new funding for immigration enforcement and detention. Aaron Reichlin-Melnick, who worked on an analysis published by the American Immigration Council, says the new budget would make ICE “the single largest federal law enfo...

And here's a bit of a hint for the slow people out there - they don't need that many agents or that big of a budget if they're only dealing with immigrants.
Just sitting here quietly wondering what it would take to deport everyone who admitted to being a homosexual, black, Latino, or drug addict on a medical form…cause I assume that’s why DOGE wanted so much of our private information - to use it against us.
The leading edge of the Nazi thought machine is already saying it.

At this point, all it would take would be to successfully establish the precedent that legal citizens can have their citizenship revoked (which just requires a case getting to the Supreme Court, where the corrupt majority has already demonstrated that they're going to just rubber-stamp whatever Trump wants), then to issue an executive order declaring that [whatever quality] is [whatever has been deemed to be acceptable grounds to have ones citizenship revoked]. It would undoubtedly be challenged, but again, it would wind up in front of the Supreme Court sooner or later, and they'd rubber-stamp it
and when those excuses for hunting people run out, who do you think they will focus next to keep getting funding?
Whoever they deem "undesirables".
Deportations will stop soon. Remember the whole nitrogen execution thing from last year? They have the budget to build gas chambers and nobody will stop them
easy to target every democratic and independant voter out there, most of them arnt raiding mostly blue more than red areas.
But then where would they hide extra money to syphon later in corrupt dealings??? C'mon man! Think like a republican!
The goal is to go back to the slave system using some legal trickery and brute force. The money is there to make it happen.
Yes, though with a feudal system mixed in.
Corporations and wealthy individuals will be the sole property-owners and will play the roles of feudal lords, and the people will be serfs, allowed to live on the lords' estates only if they serve the lords.
Since homelessness will be criminalized while all property will be owned by the feudal lords, those who won't serve the lords "willingly" will be imprisoned, and yes, they will then be slaves.
Weird how the conservative fear of "FEMA camps" was just them drooling about using them to put anyone that looks too brown in.
One of the various conservative thoughts is to make large swathes of US territory governed by corporations and billionaires. Basically, non-state zones subject to rules set by non-state systems.
Surprise! They're trying to make feudal / monarchy systems. Welcome to bring peasants again, fellow peasants.
The underlying foundation of conservative thoughts was, and is, to uphold a hierarchy that supports a monarchy. It has been from day 1. The American Revolution was a war against conservatism.
I think one of the most concise ways to conceptualize the current conservative project is that they looked at the French Revolution and the collapse of the Ancien Regime and drew the wrong conclusions.
Rather than seeing it as the inevitable result of the systemstic oppression of the majority for the obscene privilege of a select few, they see it as a failure of the select few to sufficiently protect their privilege. And their goal is to recreate the conditions of the Ancien Regime, but this time around to prevent the peasants from successfully rebelling.
It'll be different depending on the skin color. The darker the skin, the shorter the road to slavery and skipping the feudal system.
