Odd to pick an area with such a low number of illegal immigrants.

  1. With the number of illegals being so much high in other states and areas. It seems this is 100% a political attack from the president of the united states against someone that was running against him as president.

    Surprise that Texas is not seeing larger ice raids or Florida. Know ice is afraid of the governor of California so they are staying out of that state. But crazy that they pick an area with less the. 90k people. And cause this much of a fuss. If this was really about illegals. Then they are picking the wrong places to start.

    It’s impossible to get an accurate count. The numbers have such a large range of estimates.

    Estimates are from 10m-15m.

    So gotta take statistics with a grain of salt on things like this. Like how do you count when someone snuck in and never reported to be here.

  3. We’re all born on the same planet but let’s call it illegal for moving to the other side of an imaginary line.

  4. Excuse my ignorance, but is gun laws a bit more strict there? Maybe they thought they’d have less push back or shooting at ICE?

    If they were after illegal immigrants – or immigrants at all, they would be at Tyson chicken plants, Amazon warehouses, and other major employers known to employ large numbers of illegal immigrants.

    But they’re not. Because it is not about immigration.

    It is about striking terror and fear in the American people.

    trump is a traitor to America.

    Lot of bootlicking bots on this sub today. Has anyone else noticed there’s been a decline in hasbara posting? The Israeli bots have been redirected.

    Those no warrant home entries combined with stand your ground laws in Texas and Florida could be big time trouble. 

  8. 1) small state that can’t mount much resistance. 

    2) too cold for mass riots.

    3) Walz/Frey likely involved in Somali fraud.

    4) most of the illegals are concentrated in a single city.

    5) ***most important*** red states already cooperate so they can be picked up, en masse straight from the jail by a couple agents. Sanctuary states require community arrests, which are inherently chaotic and require more resources (agents) per arrest.

    Right, let’s pretend millions didn’t enter the country since these numbers were put out in 2021.

  10. I don’t buy those numbers at all. But I think the overall point is not wrong.

    EDIT: On the other hand, am I going to fight in the street along side the “state your pronouns, shows us your vaccine papers crowd” to keep illegals in the country? Not on your life.

  11. At least for Maine, I think it’s because our governor poked the orange bear at that dinner once.

  12. weird they aren’t dragging the people who give paychecks to illegal immigrants out of their cars and homes in shackles. seems backwards.

    If ice was really after illegals they would target industry warehouses, for example, the meat processing plants and greenhouses are full of illegals. ICE is only meant to create chaos and fear, and somehow it will be used to control the election.

  14. You are aware ICE agents and law enforcement are active in Red states too – just their governors and senators arnt encouraging their citizens to riot in the streets about it.

    Also odd to pick a place where:

    – It’s winter, and really fucking cold

    – The population is known for being very supportive of immigration in general

    – The population is also known for political activism

    hm. It must be some file said Minneapolis was basically Portland or something?
