Here’s some recent reporting around ICE funding and expenditures
snopes.com/…/men-lost-from-alligator-alcatraz/
and here’s a very careful take on the missing “detainees” from Snopes. Stuff like this is pretty tricky to report on in the moment, it’ll be a lot clearer in the history books.
“FALSE. No one is unaccounted — including at Alligator Alcatraz — in ICE’s online detention locator system. This is yet another hoax about the facility.”

Thank you, good reads. Between the lines then is mass extermination happening? Not yet, but people are dying and disappearing, being relocated to obfuscate the line of paper work. GIven it’s Y’all Qaeda in charge of iCE we’re at the tip of mass exterminations and slavery.

At what point you consider the exterminations “mass” is somewhat arbitrary. Slave population has remained relatively steady (highest per capita in the world, but steady) while the rate at which we eliminate “undesirables” is shooting up in a way that’s really difficult to track or hold anyone accountable for

Any amount of killing/deaths because of ICE/DHS is still monstrous. Just that until the word comes out that they’re killing them actively in large groups will some people “in the middle” be convinced.
