It's no coincidence that ICE's detention of a European woman is eliciting reactions that the same treatment of thousands of racialized people from across the globe doesn't, but these are some telling insights into ICE detention. These detainees could be housed in luxury apartments and provided high-quality food and medical care for what it costs to detain them in gruesome cages:

“She says it was like a horror movie,” Lofving said. “There were people screaming from the rooms all around. They are feeding her through a little mailbox hole. She didn’t have a blanket, she didn’t have a pillow. It’s basically a yoga mat on the ground and a toilet on the corner.”

Spending [nine] days in one of CBP’s short-term detention facilities appears to be a violation of the agency's own internal detention standards, which, “generally limit detention in these facilities to 72 hours,” according to a 2023 report from the Office of Inspector General.

Inspectors conducted unannounced inspections of four short-term facilities in San Diego and El Centro. They found that of the 447 migrants detained in all four stations, 42% of them exceeded the 72-hour standard, with some being there for more than 20 days.

The average cost of detaining a noncitizen adult is $164 per day, according to an ICE memo. Based on that average, a month of detention costs taxpayers $4,900."

"The Trump admin is planning a registry for immigrants in the country illegally, threatening prison time for those who refuse to comply.

Failure to register could subject an immigrant to a $5,000 fine or up to 6 months in prison, docs."

Trump is "out of control." He's targeting undocumented immigrants bc he wants to persecute, dehumanize, demonize, detain, & deport them.

If Donnie and Elon Fascist really go through with their plan to evict 15 million undocumented taxpayers the cost will be enormous.

How much would you pay for plane tickets for 15 million people? and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

This is gonna be the biggest government spending spree is history.

https://lawandcrime.com/crime/epitome-of-evil-hungarian-national-hunts-disabled-senior-men-like-prey-before-killing-them-police-say/

A Hungarian national was accused by Florida police of targeting disabled, older men and using a fake identity to gain their trust. He’s now charged with murdering two of the men he allegedly pursued.

Zsolt Zsolyomi, 25, was arrested on Feb. 19 and held without bond after being charged with two counts of second-degree murder.

In 1995, a group of Haitian migrant children detained at the #GITMO launched a desperate attempt at freedom -set fire to tents. Many of the children were weak from a hunger strike. US officials regained control & handcuffed >two dozen young ppl & dragged them away.

They were housed in shoddy tent cities, ill-suited for #detention. When storms came -metal poles of the tents collapsed -camps flooded.

🚨Trump wants to house 30K undoc. #immigrants in tents there.

#LosAngeles high school students walk out to protest #ICERaids

by Kevin Reed, February 5, 2025

"Students from multiple high schools in East Los Angeles walked out of class on Tuesday in support of #immigrants’ rights and against the Trump administration’s policies of arrest, detention and #deportation of migrant workers and their families.

"Students at Garfield High School walked out at 10:00 am and marched down Whittier Boulevard, blocking traffic. They waved Mexican flags and carried signs and banners reading '#LuchaContraTrump' [fight against Trump]. Shortly thereafter, students from Oscar De La Hoya, Esteban E. Torres, Bravo Medical and Roosevelt high schools joined the walkout.

"By 1:00 pm, the student demonstration had reached City Hall. A report by CBS News said that student protesters had breached City Hall barriers by 2:30 pm.

"The CBS News report continued:

School officials encouraged students to stay on campus for safety purposes, and to “express their views on campus.” Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto M. Carvalho encouraged students not to stay home, and to protest “within the school facilities.”

"The student walkout coincided with a third day of protests in downtown Los Angeles against the Trump administration’s Department of Homeland Security (#DHS), and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids and arrests of thousands of immigrant workers since Trump’s inauguration on January 20.

"Some immigrants have been detained and flown out of the US on military aircraft to countries such Columbia, Venezuela and Guatemala. While the White House is claiming that those being deported are guilty of crimes in the US, the truth is that the migrants being deported on military flights have been caught up in the ICE dragnet regardless of their immigration or legal status.

"Tuesday saw the first US flight of detained migrants to the US naval base at #GuantanamoBay, Cuba, where Trump said a prison camp for 30,000 people is being built. The flight from Fort Bliss in Texas was reported to have a dozen migrants on board, most of whom were from Venezuela and classified as 'high-value' detainees. [I warned you wall that #Trump would start using #Gitmo!]

"The Trump administration, which asserts that the migrants are affiliated with the Tren de Aragua gang, will house these men in cells like those holding the 'enemy combatants' who have been jailed at Guantanamo since the administration of George W. Bush, following the terror attacks of September 11, 2001. The 15 detainees remaining have been held in violation of their democratic rights.

"The demonstrations on Tuesday were part of a nationwide #DayWithoutImmigrants campaign, with workers staying home and students organizing walk-outs. The campaign was initiated on social media and took place in many of the cities where ICE raids have already taken place.

"In #SeasideCalifornia, south of San Francisco, hundreds of people marched on Monday, blocking traffic on Fremont Street and Del Monte Boulevard to protest the Trump administration’s anti-immigration policies and plans for mass deportations.

"Protesters reported that on the previous day Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents were spotted in Seaside and North Salinas. Many Latino-owned stores in Seaside and down the Central Coast were closed. Lupita’s Bakery on Fremont Avenue in Seaside released a statement that said, 'Our decision today was about more than just business; it was about people, unity, and standing for what is right.'"

Protesters at #Florida Capitol join national movement pushing back against Trump

By: Jackie Llanos - February 5, 2025

"Roughly 300 people gathered in front of the old Florida Capitol in #TallahasseeFlorida Wednesday afternoon to protest the Trump administration, including the president’s actions against #immigrants and #transgender people.

"The protest, which went on for hours under the sun, was part of a nationwide movement that started online calling for 50 protests in 50 states on one day under the hashtag #50501.

"'We need to be loud,' Madalyn Propst, a lead organizer of the protest with the climate activism group #SunriseTallahassee, told the growing crowd as the protest began. She told the Florida Phoenix that organizing the event, which drew people from other parts of the state, had required a quick turnaround.

"Protesters held signs bashing President Donald Trump and #ElonMusk, plus #Project2025, which is the #HeritageFoundation’s strategy for the administration. Other signs called for the protection of #immigrants, #LGBTQ people, #ReproductiveRights, and the #Environment."

"You simply cannot cover Trump’s second term accurately and responsibly if you are not willing to situate his acts as part of a terrifying descent into authoritarianism, racism, and cruelty.

And the mainstream political media – for a variety of reasons -- is not willing to do anything of the kind."

Part two: This one happened today so posting now:

ICE & Situations: What to do

🔸️In Public:
As Pantera said, Walk on home.
This includes basically at the drive thru (happened today in Chicago) if they walk up to you. Dont talk to them. Keep moving.
"ICE must allow you to pass by if they do not have a “good reason” to keep asking you questions. An example of a “good reason” is if you are leaving a place where they have previously found many undocumented workers. They cannot stop you just because you are dark-skinned or because you have a foreign accent.. Remember that you have the right to remain silent.

However, it is very important not to run. If you run away from them, you are giving them a good reason to arrest you."

🔸️At Work
"ICE can legally go into areas open to the public at workplaces, such as the reception area of a business. "
BUT - "To enter places that are not open to the public, they must have a warrant or permission from the boss or owner. If ICE enters your workplace with or without a warrant, you always have the right to remain silent. They should only ask you questions if they have a good reason to believe that you are not a U.S. citizen. If all workers, documented or undocumented, behave in the same way or do the same thing (for example, remain silent and continue working), ICE will not have any good reason to arrest any workers."

🔸️In Your Car driving
"If the police stop you, you must only show them your driver’s license and car registration. You do not have to show them any other papers. In California, the police should not ask you any questions about your legal status in the U.S. because they enforce local law and immigration law is federal law, not local law.
Our state laws protect our undocumented immigrants in these situations. However, the police in many other states cooperate with ICE. Police may require proof of your legal status, but remember anything you say can be used against you. So it is really important to only say your name and address to the police. You can remain silent and request an attorney before you answer any other questions from the police."

This is the point where #liberalization will be replaced with #fascism, as it invariably will lead to, ushering in the old era of #Norway where people are beholden to the #barons, working their asses off and blaming #immigrants for economic and political instability - because the barons told them the immigrants are the REAL problem, creating a cyclical abusive relationship with an oligarchy that really couldn't give a shit about Norway or Norwegian culture.

It's time to face facts. #Norway is slated for even more #liberalization. What's this mean?

Basically one of the most bonkers parties #fremskrittspartiet - which is like the #republicans of Norway, in that they lie a lot and use emotional manipulation to vilify #foreigners and #immigrants - is popular with the youth.

That's because the youth are more into individualism and making money than ever before. Essentially we're politically destined to becoming more like the #UK or the #USA.

I fixed Telegraph UK's lede:

"Migrants not interested in i̶n̶t̶e̶g̶r̶a̶t̶i̶o̶n̶ #CulturalAssimilation ‘should not be here’, says Badenoch"; a 2nd Gen Nigerian whose fully assimilated and one of the "lucky" ones. You see this in almost every immigrant group everywhere. People secure in their new home nation making demands and hating on their fellow nationality #immigrants who come later and might their take jobs, deplete other resources, from their 'priviliged' selves. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2025/01/16/politics-latest-news-kemi-badenoch-major-speech-tories/

"Multiple experts drew comparisons between Meta's recent changes around immigration and what happened in Myanmar in 2017, where Facebook contributed to a genocide by allowing the spread of hate."

"If you were waiting for Democrats to capitulate on the issue they claimed during #Trump’s last term was dearest to their heart, his hostility to #immigrants, you didn’t have to wait long. A bill called The #LakenRileyAct is zipping through #USCongress, already approved in the House and moving quickly in the Senate."

Adrian Carrasquillo reports on how many observers, including those inside the media, think the media are totally unprepared to report on what's really coming as Trump promises to round up and deport millions of people.

He quotes Ryan Girdusky, a former Vance advisor, who says,

“It’s gotta be all gas, no brake.”

Which sounds to me for all the world like something Hitler or Eichmann night have said….
