Is ICE still doing the so-called "immigrant" hardass stance and in the states we don't hear about because "bigger" stories? Kind of like the Nazi's did against Germans about the Jews?

  Yes. They’re still building more “detention centers” and still rounding people up.

  As far as I can tell there is actually a big surge right now. They just stopped making idiotic trolly social media posts.

  In my area this is by far the highest level of ICE activity we’ve seen so far.

    There has been a noticeable amount of ICE all over here as well. The problem is that almost all of our Latino population is from Puerto Rico. So they have been harassing people on the street, kicking in doors, and beating people up, but making few arrests, and almost no sustained charges. This is a problem for them because their good standing clause to not pay back their bonuses is based on getting people actually deported. So the ICE agents here are crying about how they might end up bankrupt because they spent those bonuses, and can’t afford to pay them back.

      Kinda hilarious if it wasn’t for the innocent victims of their violence.

    Always wanted to visit DC. But that sounds boring as fuck for any National Guard.

      I am not sure if your comment is serious or not, but if you are in the National Guard, that would be a damn good deployment to get.

      Unlike Operation Lone Star where you are sitting out in the Texas desert going insane and being fucked out of benefits, a DC tour is just waddling around Georgetown, The National Mall while staying in apartments and hotels and as it is a federal deployment you get the pay and retirement benefits.

      I am sure you would have some downtime to see the sights, Trump and MAGA America are fucking up the Smithsonian, but there are other great sights to see.

  I hear about it. I’ve even been reminding people that ICE went without funding from January to June thanks to DNC refusing every budget where they had any, until Republicans passed a reconciliation budget with simple majority in house and senate. That gap of funding might be why you didn’t hear about it for a little while.

    They've always had funding. The more recent budget funds then through 2028.

      Incorrect. The government was in shutdown at the start of this year because funding had already ran out, then it reopened without DHS funding which was later limited to only without ICE funding.

  They've actually increased activity in much of the country. They've just not been shoving it in everyone's face like Bongino did.

  All information is suspect because the right wing media is complicit and that’s most media.

    *controlled media

    it’s not even right wing vs left anymore, just who is complicit.
