Trafficking children just like their child raping pedophile leaders

Miller is a ghoul, but who are the troglodytes who believed, or still believe, that they're going after the worst of the worst? This is a terror campaign aimed at the softest of targets
mastertigurius@lemmy.world · 39 pts · 204d
It was never about going for the worst of the worst, not in any part of the chain of command. The point was to start a war of attrition with one goal: drive out undesirables by any means necessary. Trump and his ilk have a soft spot for Putin and are taking a trick straight from his playbook: destroy enemy morale by attacking their weakest and most vulnerable.

Miller is the heart of this operation, it’s his baby. That’s not defense for anyone else. It’s just recognition of top of the command structure here.

He also set absurd deportation quotas and pushed ICE to go after the "easy" targets to meet them.

I am curious as to how such a man is removed. Does his tenure end if Trump dies of natural causes? Can he be impeached? Can Congress boot him in another way?

It's hard to imagine the full effect of America's modern self-sustaining fascist disinformation ecosystem. It's an alternate reality that follows the same patterns as cult brainwashing, with the same cognitive effects and resistance to deprogramming. North Korea and Russia have a version of this but modern first-world algorithmic feeds and astroturfing / bots multiply the impact and resilience against real information by a thousand times. The people captured by it don't know it's there, even when it wraps them as tightly as a straight jacket.
So: I think the majority of conservatives in the US at least believe ICE is only targeting criminals, and the typically just the worst ones. They don't even see stories like this unless they're strong enough to break that propaganda bubble. And when they do, that fascist media treats it as an honest mistake and that the victims are overreacting.

Sure, but I think a healthy portion of them see the cruelty and celebrate it

My friends two kids were followed home from elementary school. They ran in terror for several blocks until they were home.
The family sheltered in place, switching to home schooling and calling in to work for over a week until ICE moved on to other schools.
Their dad is Caucasian. Their mom is half Ojibwe half African American. Both sides have 4+ generations of citizenship. They were targeted due to their tan skin and dark hair.

that is.. frightening.

I try to put myself in these kid’s parent’s shoes, which is obviously impossible to do, and my heart truly breaks. Knowing that your children are afraid, 24/7, of their parents disappearing at any time… I have a hard time finding any other situation that would be so terrifying.
Just trying to make a better life, and spat on for doing so.
Everyone who supports this is an irredeemable piece of shit. When this madness ends, anyone who had a hand in this needs to be prosecuted and punished, severely. A message must be sent to those who would ever attempt to install a fascist regime again. I mean s e v e r e.
Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works · 10 pts · 204d
I honestly don't know how anyone can be a parent and work for ICE.
ayyy@sh.itjust.works · 7 pts · 204d
It’s pretty easy if you view women as property and just rape them and get away with it. Death to ICE.
VieuxQueb@lemmy.ca · 8 pts · 204d
Imagine having to tell your 4 year old what to do in case you get disappeared. Now imagine that 4 years old trying to make sense of all of this.
Fucking crazy America.
athatet@lemmy.zip · 8 pts · 204d
And then the 4 year old gets disappeared instead. Shits beyond fucked.
novibe@lemmy.ml · 42 pts · 204d
There was* a prison riot in an ICE detention center where CHILDREN had to revolt for better conditions. Like what 2 weeks ago?? These are concentration camps, full stop.
athatet@lemmy.zip · 22 pts · 204d
Death camps

Well then you have no problem with me calling them what they are.

If you were curious what Conservative America would look like....here it is.
And your conservative family and neighbors made it happen and are ecstatic about it. And no one is going to hold them accountable except you.
rozodru@piefed.social · 31 pts · 204d
I'm sorry but if my child was attending a school in Minnesota and ICE was "circling" it looking for children to traffic I would be standing out front with a gun in hand all day.
Skankhunt420@sh.itjust.works · 18 pts · 204d
And then they would arrest/kill you. Now if you were to get the rest of the community to do it with you maybe it would be successful.
Problem is a lot of assholes in all communities directly support this shit.
HasturInYellow@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 203d
I would bet a LOT of money, if what you said happened, there would 30 people doing it the next day
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today · 3 pts · 203d
I doubt you'd have much problem recruiting enough parents to form a human wall between the ICE Apes and the kids. I know that if this had been happening when my son was in school, I would have happily joined.
Let's see the Apes attack parents who are just trying to shield kids from psychopathic MAGA human traffickers, and see how that goes over in America.
Fedizen@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 203d
They'd shutdown the school and the local police would arrest you when the first parents saw you outside.
Druth@discuss.online · 4 pts · 203d
People are forming brigades around the schools, though not with guns. Ice would gleefully shoot you in front of your children if you tried that.
Jumbie@lemmy.zip · 6 pts · 203d
They already did that without a gun drawn. Two murders, multiple attempted.
bstix@feddit.dk · 1 pts · 203d
The people ought to follow ICE and start circling around their homes.

HulkSmashBurgers@reddthat.com · 31 pts · 204d
I think there's a very good chance kids in ice custody are being abused/molested.
alekwithak@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 203d
I think even 'very good chance' is an understatement.
Axeman666@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 203d
I could see that. They're kidnapping undocumented children for Trump's new pedo island.

They are probably going to contract measles from that, among other things. And unwanted pregnancies.

The caravans of murderers and rapists was another accusation as a confession.

If you approach ICE with a nice pot of tea they may get a little suspicious. Or they may be too stupid for that.

So Heavily Armed KNOWN Child Molesters are being Protected by Jeffrey Epstein's BEST FRIENDS when they Take YOUR Children to a Location that not even LAWMAKERS can Access? It SOUNDS like the ONLY Problem is they need a Larger Budget!
-Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries! And Tim Walz if he was in Senate!

How long before they kill a kid? As if school shooters weren't enough to worry about for them.
Entertainmeonly@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 7 pts · 203d
100 percent they already have. Only one reason you don't let your facilities be walked.

With everything we've recently had confirmed in certain files, it makes sense the elite need more trafficking victims and 'jerky.' 🤢

What about all the gang members and violent criminals they were saying they were gonna get rid of? Oh yeah, those ppl are scary, they might shoot! Let's go for the easiest option possible - children.
FFS. Unbelievable.

Oh yeah? My kindergarten homie got a stash of Nerds and Mexican Takis he sell by the back corner at school. Cross him and he gonna put a cap in yo ass! He got himself a cap gun.

Halloween masks for all the kids, to defeat face recognition?

More people should have listened to Manic Street Preachers.
Washedupcynic@lemmy.ca · 4 pts · 204d
Seems like a good way to fight back would be for the districts to decide to BUS all children to and from school. Busses lined up right in front of school, and school administrators walking children directly to the bus. Kids get picked up and dropped off right in front of their homes. This would make it harder, (not impossible,) for ice to just grab children.
Zephorah@discuss.online · 11 pts · 204d
What’s to stop them from just stopping the bus? Nice package of all the kids they’re looking to remove from their parents, like some kind of rogue CPS. Bait, probably.
Washedupcynic@lemmy.ca · 4 pts · 204d
My bad, I hadn't though that far out, and assumed a bus driver would prevent children from being snatched from the bus. Maybe instead we need to go back to covid era learning online.
SabinStargem@lemmy.today · 2 pts · 203d
I wouldn't be surprised if busses start being escorted by a SUV filled with armed Rainbow Panthers.
ayyy@sh.itjust.works · 9 pts · 204d
Many school districts have already implemented a policy that the bus driver is not allowed to open the doors and let kids off if there are Nazis around. They are taking advantage of this by just stalking the busses and trapping the kids in them for hours and hours because they are sick fucks that get off on torturing children. All ICE must die.

i suggest taking them out of school, either remove them from that district, or have at-home hw material
