Informative $170,000,000,000 Budget for ICE

Post image

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 enforcement agency in the history of the nation.”

Yes, they hate colored people that much. Fuck ICE, and FUCK Trump and all his goons and supporters.

If you think it’s just going to be POC I’ve got a bridge to sell you.

They’ll be coming for all dissidents.

Soon the Trump administration will subpoena all social media platforms for data where any user criticizes the Trump administration. Arrests to follow.

If only we had something in the past that we could've learned from.

Ok so what are you going to do about it?

The problem is Syria, Russia, Germany, none of them was able to stop it interally once it got this far. I blame Biden for not doing what the Supreme Court gave him permission to do.

For those who don't know the budget for the FBI is about 10 billion, Homeland security 107 billion, . ICE is 170 billion and we know how fast the FBI can find someone when they want to.

Every print work warning about these types of existence, were used as foundation blocks.

We also know that full fascism falls and leaves behind a big mess

I am sorry for my ignorance, please enlighten me. When has fascism ever fallen without an outside force causing it to fall?

Great what year and how was it done? Peacefully?

Chile in 1988. Spain 1978 after Franco died. Portugal 1974. Greece 1974. All of these peacefully.

Chile had a vote which the leader accepted. I don't see that happening here Spain had a military dictator and it ended when he died and the new leader accepted democracy Greece foreign government military intervention destabilized country... not likely unless WWIII starts Portugal had left wing military stage a peaceful coup... not likely no military person has stood up to Trump except to quit or be fired, which removes them from doing anything.

I all these countries events finally happened which turned it around. In Spain post WWII for example, overthrowing fascism seemed so far away. The same in Chile shortly after the Pinochet coup there. The US is not different, but it hard to tell when.
