One important story I don't want to get lost in the time jump shuffle now that I'm back at work, is the evidence that Trump's Department of Homeland Security no longer considers the 4th Amendment of the US Constitution to be valid law. Or at least it sure looks that way given the orders they've been training up new ICE Gestapo pigs on.

Several months back, I wrote about news that DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, and Trump's nazi shadow chancellor Stephen Miller wanted to use ICE to enter homes without a judicial warrant; which would be a clear violation of the 4th Amendment, based on previous SCOTUS precedent. Well, thanks to leaks obtained by the Associated Press, we now know that they're actually doing it; even if they're clearly trying to keep that a secret. This article is kind of trash, but AP broke the story so I guess we're going with it.

https://apnews.com/article/ice-arrests-warrants-minneapolis-trump-00d0ab0338e82341fd91b160758aeb2d

Immigration officers assert sweeping power to enter homes without a judge’s warrant, memo says

"Federal immigration officers are asserting sweeping power to forcibly enter people’s homes without a judge’s warrant, according to an internal Immigration and Customs Enforcement memo obtained by The Associated Press, marking a sharp reversal of longstanding guidance meant to respect constitutional limits on government searches.

The memo authorizes ICE officers to use force to enter a residence based solely on a more narrow administrative warrant to arrest someone with a final order of removal, a move that advocates say collides with Fourth Amendment protections and upends years of advice given to immigrant communities."

Despite the weasel words the AP used here, understanding this issue isn't that complicated. The Constitution says police can't enter your home without a judicial warrant, except in some very narrow circumstances involving probable cause. This should mean that ICE can't just break into your house to "round people up" without a judge's warrant, but the Trump regime is arguing that they don't need to respect the US constitution for "reasons" and because ICE has never tried this before, nobody is entirely sure a 6-3 fascist high SCOTUS won't ignore the entire legal history of the United States to allow it some day.

Furthermore, the Gestapo is arguing that because they have an administrative final removal order, that is just as good as a warrant. Which is farcical, because immigration "judges" are literally employees of DHS and don't have to be anywhere near as qualified as a judge has to be, so allowing the Gestapo to violate the constitution because of an administrative order issued by "judges" who work for DHS is pretty much akin to letting the Gestapo decide who the Gestapo can legally violate the constitution to kidnap.

Whether the fascist Roberts court allows it or not, this is patently illegal and morally unconscionable; but I guess the maggots at the Associated Press are too afraid they'll be next on Trump's media revenge tour to say that out loud. As the AP itself notes, DHS is clearly aware that this bullshit is illegal because they're not actually distributing the memo to the Gestapo itself, but rather keeping it on a need to know basis and using it to train new ICE goons who don't know Kristi Noem is telling them to break the law. Finally, please be aware that none of this is hypothetical; in one of the most tense moments (so far) of the occupation of Minneapolis by Gestapo troops, ICE was literally filmed smashing an older, clearly harmless man's door down to kidnap him in clear violation of the US Constitution.

"The memo itself has not been widely shared within the agency, according to a whistleblower complaint, but its contents have been used to train new ICE officers who are being deployed into cities and towns to implement the president’s immigration crackdown. New ICE hires and those still in training are being told to follow the memo’s guidance instead of written training materials that actually contradict the memo, according to the whistleblower disclosure.

It is unclear how broadly the directive has been applied in immigration enforcement operations. The Associated Press witnessed ICE officers ramming through the front door of the home of a Liberian man, Garrison Gibson, with a deportation order from 2023 in Minneapolis on Jan. 11, wearing heavy tactical gear and with their rifles drawn.

Documents reviewed by The AP revealed that the agents only had an administrative warrant — meaning there was no judge who authorized the raid on private property."

Folks, I'm not going to blow sunshine up your ass here; if you want to know how the Trump regime makes it "legal" to send the Gestapo door to door to root out their "enemies," this is what the process that leads there looks like. A fascist police state built to disappear migrants is a fascist police state that can disappear anyone.

One of the most underexamined, perhaps even actively avoided topics of discussion in the larger discourse about the Trump regime's fascist ethnic cleaning project, is the administration's efforts to establish what Nick Turse has dubbed a "global gulag" of dangerous third party countries willing to accept trafficked migrants the US government insists are "dangerous criminals" yet in many cases, have no significant criminal record at all. Perhaps adhering to a philosophy of out of sight, out of mind, the US media has shown little interest in pursing these stories beyond whatever mystifying, pro-kidnapping and deportation rulings come out of a 6-3 fascist-high Supreme Court. As multiple investigations by The Intercept have shown however, the regime is running far more deportation flights, to far more dangerous concentration camps around the globe, than mainstream media coverage would lead you to believe.

In this examination, Turse checks out the US State Department's own assessments of the human rights records of both the countries the Trump regime has actually trafficked people to, and the countries the Trumpenreich is negotiating with to allow those "deportations." To the surprise of precisely no one, Foggy Bottom gave the vast majority of them a failing grade - 91% of them to be precise.

https://theintercept.com/2025/07/29/trump-deport-immigrants-third-country-human-rights/

State Dept: Trump’s “Third Countries” for Immigrants Have Awful Human Rights Records

"The nations that the Trump administration is collaborating with to accept these expelled immigrants are some of the worst human rights offenders on the planet, according to the U.S. government’s own reports.

More than 8,100 people have been expelled in this manner since January 20, and the U.S. has made arrangements to send people to at least 13 nations, so far, across the globe. Of them, 12 have been cited by the State Department for significant human rights abuses.

But the Trump administration has cast a much wider net for its third-country deportations. The U.S. has solicited 64 nations to participate in its growing global gulag for expelled immigrants. Fifty-eight of them — roughly 91 percent — were rebuked for human rights violations in the State Department’s most recent human rights reports."

Given the alarming number of people the Gestapo is rounding up off the streets, I can understand folks getting the idea that 8,100 kidnapped migrants trafficked to countries they often have no connection to whatsoever, is merely a drop in the bucket. They reality however is that these deportation flights, which can often contain as few as five people, represent one of the highest priorities for the Pork Reich's larger ethnic cleansing project because they are among the most difficult to stop, or undo. This is why the Trump regime took their case to remove the injunction blocking these third country deportation flights, all the way to the Supreme Court - where Roberts and the other "conservatives" found a loophole to let them get away with it.

Please then, keep in mind that the regime fought tooth and nail for the right to conduct expensive and inefficient migrant trafficking flights, while you consider what the rest of this data means. Specifically, and as Refugees International's Yael Schacher told the Intercept, that "the Trump administration cares nothing for human rights and wants these deportations to third countries to be punitive." Which is a very college way of saying we're purposely shipping migrants to unstable third country gulags because we want to disappear them in the cruelest, most harmful way possible. Let me rephrase that: we are paying to vanish people in some of the worst dungeons, and least safe places on Earth because our white nationalist government loves hurting nonwhite people, and is trying to create a white, or at least significantly whiter, American ethnostate.

Given the broad spread of countries the US is secretly negotiating with (at least 64 right now), the conditions trafficked migrants are held in vary significantly; but as the State Department's own reports detail, confinement, abuse, torture and extrajudicial murder are common dangers in the majority of third party countries accepting US deportation flights. For example, both South Sudan and Eswatini, countries which recently accepting 8 and 5 kidnapped migrants from the US government, are unquestionably hotbeds for extrajudicial killings and torture according to both the US State Department, and the United Nations.

In the end, it doesn't matter what the media, or the Supreme Court say, these are all violations of international law, and in some cases crimes against humanity. The Trump regime can write themselves whatever policy guideline excuses they like, it doesn't change the fact that this is absolutely nightmare Nazi shit, and everyone involved had better hope America never sees another day free from fascist domination, or they're all going to prison for a very long time.

When writing about both the Trump regime's ethnic cleansing project, and the ensuing reign of terror being conducted on our streets by the Gestapo, I've tried to focus on a few reoccurring, and important lines of examination. We've talked a lot about the way local police forces are aiding the Trumpenreich's white nationalist mass deportation project, the role that a pre-existing "counterterrorism" mass surveillance panopticon is playing in the larger fascist agenda to transform America into a dictatorship, and how everything Trump is doing here is built on the already massive skeleton of a racist, fascist police state that was created long before the Swine Emperor ever took office. All of which exemplifies what I've been saying about Donald Trump and the MAGA movement since 2016; namely that Downmarket Mussolini and his entire regime are at once a product of, and an accelerant for, Pig Empire fascism.

Today I'd like to look at a terrifying Intercept report from late July, that in its own way pretty much encapsulates everything I've been saying about Trump, the Gestapo, and the cop-humping fascist society that produced them. A recent investigation reveals that at least eight (and almost certainly more) states and municipalities are sharing their racist, unsupervised, and extremely flawed "gang database" entries with ICE, who are using that data to kidnap and deport people often guilty of nothing more than a civil violation (or indeed, nothing at all) in our workplaces and on our streets.

https://theintercept.com/2025/07/22/ice-gang-database-trump-deportations/

State Cops Quietly Tag Thousands as Gang Members — and Feed Their Names to ICE

"An investigation by The Intercept found that at least eight states and large municipalities funnel their gang database entries to ICE — which can then use the information to target people for arrest, deportation, or rendition to so-called “third countries.” Some of the country’s largest and most immigrant-dense states, like Texas, New York, Illinois, and Virginia, route the information to ICE through varied paths that include a decades-old police clearinghouse and a network of post-9/11 intelligence-sharing hubs.

Both federal immigration authorities and local police intelligence units operate largely in secret, and the full extent of the gang database-sharing between them is unknown. What is known, however, is that the lists are riddled with mistakes: Available research, reporting, and audits have revealed that many contain widespread errors and encourage racial profiling."

Well, the American police state is certainly the gift that keeps on giving, isn't it? Although the article doesn't directly articulate it, what you are looking at here is the nightmare confluence of over four decades of Pig Empire racialized policing policy, transforming into a many-headed Gestapo hydra at Trump's beck and call. The American obsession with gang violence rises out of 80's era US white supremacist politics, where virtually all crime committed by non-whites was racially coded under the auspices of gang activity to allow a largely bipartisan, cop-humping political class to portray marginalized communities as a threat to upstanding (white) citizens in need of aggressive and quite lucrative (for some) policing. The political rhetoric of this era, which continued well into the 90's, defined it as "the War on Drugs," but in reality it was, and always has been a war on marginalized communities. After 9/11, this War on Drugs, was fused with the alarming rise of a new counterterrorism police state inside America, as part of the "War on Terror." This too, turned out to pretty much be a war on nonwhite people, although the government also found time to expand it to include all sorts of dissenters, including anti-war activists, anti-police violence activists, and uh, dangerous environmentalist teens who believe in scientifically-verifiable climate crisis. Regardless of whatever purpose these programs were created to achieve, the reality is that they have resulted in the systemization of racialized policing and oppression in our society.

Naturally then, it only stands to reason that a fascist regime, built around the myth of a formerly-racially pure fallen America, conducting a white nationalist ethnic cleansing project before our very eyes, would seek to integrate the pre-existing, fascist American police state into its even more racially-focused operations; after all, we did build him a machine that already oppresses the shit out of minorities, and that's something the Trump regime wants to do a lot more of. When Tom Homan tells you kidnapped migrants are in a gang because he says so, this pre-existing structure is what he's relying on to make his propaganda hold water in the American discourse. To paraphrase hip Zoomers, if you don't want the torment nexus to fall into the hands of literal fucking nazis, don't build the torment nexus in the first place.

Does the neofeudalistic reactionary hellworld got you on the unemployment line? Don't worry, Trump's fascist Gestapo is hiring. Now you too can join the only growing job market for labor class workers; hunting down and brutalizing brown people as part of a fascist takeover disguised as a fake war! Recently I wrote about the massive (over $200 billion in total) "immigration enforcement" funding increase in the now-passed GOP budget, and why that probably meant ICE and CPB would grow from Trump's secret police force, into his own private army - a Schutzstaffel, if you will. This of course included provisions to hire 10,000 new ICE enforcement agents to do the regime's fascist dirty work in our streets.

Well, it looks like the Department of Homeland Security isn't wasting time assembling Trump's new white nationalist goon squad, because ICE is now running an openly fascist advertisement campaign to recruit "deportation officers," while offering lucrative bonuses and perks for aspiring nazis who want to bust heads for the Swine Emperor. Furthermore, the language used to promote this Gestapo hiring campaign makes it abundantly clear that the regime knows what kind of people they want for the job, and folks who aren't prepared to go all the way for the Trumpenreich need not apply.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jul/30/ice-hiring-incentives-signing-bonuses

Ice entices new recruits with patriotism pitch and pledge of $50,000 signing bonuses

"In addition to appealing to prospective applicants’ patriotic fervor, homeland security is making a pocketbook pitch. The agency is promising up to $50,000 in signing bonuses, the potential for lots of overtime for deportation officers and other benefits such as loan repayment or forgiveness options."

First let me start by saying this article is terrible, and despite being critical of the Trump regime's plans here, still goes way too far to pretend the Pork Reich has legitimate reasons to be offering thousands more nazis a signing bonus to join up for, at a minimum, a white nationalist ethnic cleansing project in progress. With that having been noted, I think there are three major issues at play here; the signing bonus, the fascist nature of the advertising campaign, and the ominous hints about what Trump is really hiring these new goons for.

Obviously you don't need me to tell you it's disgusting to be promising $50K bonuses to would be Gestapo pigs, while you're simultaneously throwing millions of Americans off Medicaid. I think however its also important to understand that in offering such a lucrative signing bonus, it is clear that the regime intends to entice nazis with experience in professional or institutional violence. You don't offer a 22 year old unemployed Proud Boy a $50K signing bonus because you don't need that kind of money to recruit that kind of guy; what Trump wants here are cops, mercenaries, and folks with military training.

Which then brings us to the fact that DHS Secretary Kristi Noem isn't even trying to hide that they're also purposely recruiting fascists who are prepared to go along with Trump's narrative of an America under existential threat from enemies within.

"The US Immigration and Customs Enforcement campaign, which rolled out late Tuesday, recalls recruiting posters from the second world war with images of Uncle Sam and the words “AMERICA NEEDS YOU.” There also are photos of the US president and top homeland security officials with the words “DEFEND THE HOMELAND” across the images.

“Your country is calling you to serve at ICE,” said homeland security secretary Kristi Noem in a news release. “This is a defining moment in our nation’s history. Your skills, your experience, and your courage have never been more essential. Together, we must defend the homeland.”

Noem's statement and the advertising campaign that goes with it naturally bring up the obvious, but still alarming question - who exactly are you and the Gestapo defending "the homeland" from Kristi? To anyone watching the news, it sure looks like the answer to that question is "day laborers, grandmothers, legal immigrants, students, protestors, journalists, and opposition party elected officials." I see no reason to believe that's going to change for the better when we massively increase the size of Trump's nazi goon squad. As the article makes clear, ICE isn't really trying to hide that part either.

"On the recruitment webpage, the link to learn more about applying to be a deportation officer shows a photo of an armored vehicle rolling down a street with officers in military gear hanging onto the sides of the vehicle."

The rest of this piece wastes ink pretending there's a *good* way to hire 10,000 new Gestapo thugs; which says a lot about how we got here. In a society too racist to admit that creating ICE in the first place was a mistake, the best criticism the system can offer when Trump starts hiring his own SS is apparently that we're probably not going to train the nazis well enough. Taste the freedom.

The Trumpenreich's quest to massively expand the US Gestapo really is the "gift" that keeps on giving. Recently I wrote about how ICE was spending the billions of dollars the GOP just gave them, on an objectively fascist recruiting drive to entice more nazis to join ICE with perks and a signing bonus up to $50K. At the time, I theorized that these massive signing bonuses were designed to attract recruits with experience in professional violence because there's no shortage of unqualified racist goons willing to brutalize and terrorize brown people for a paycheck in what has always been, a white supremacist America.

Well, if a couple of recent stories in the news cycle are to be believed, I may have overestimated the attractiveness of hunting down Hispanic people in the streets of "liberal" cities, even for American racists, because the Gestapo appears to be getting increasingly desperate to find a mere 10,000 new fascist thugs.

How desperate? Desperate enough to recruit goons over the ICE age cap of forty, and allowing recruits as young as 18 to join the Gestapo. And in a move that I'm sure is unrelated, washed up TV actor and frothing nazi Dean Cain, who is over forty, immediately signed up for duty.

'What Could Possibly Go Wrong?': Trump's ICE Is Now Recruiting Teenagers

"Approved applicants will be joining an agency rife with human rights and legal abuses as it scrambles to satisfy alleged ICE arrest quotas and President Donald Trump's desire to carry out the biggest mass deportation campaign in the nation's history—a campaign of kidnapping, unlawful imprisonment and expulsion of innocent people, family separation, concentration camps, terrorization of American communities, alleged torture and sexual crimes, and many other outrages.

Noem told Fox & Friends Wednesday that in addition to lifting the 40-year-old age cap, ICE applicants can now be as young as 18."

Keeping in mind that I don't think the major priority for Americans who don't want to live in a fascist dictatorship run by the dumbest nazis in the country should be "our nazis are unqualified and poorly trained" - turning armed, eighteen year old racists loose inside a secret police force that is conducting an ethnic cleansing operation, while actively violating our Civil Rights and ignoring the law, is categorically one of the dumbest, most dangerous things the Trump regime has ever proposed. Furthermore, I would encourage readers once again not to sleep on the objectively fucking Nazi tone DHS is using to advertise this. Between the artificially aged AI slop mimicking Third Reich recruiting posters, to tying "defending the homeland" with the father son relationship in the same way that was so crucial to early Nazi propaganda, I am pretty sure evoking Nazi Germany during the interwar period was quite intentional.

Still, the point here is that they wouldn't be trying to hire white nationalists right out of high school, or lure their aging fathers to the front lines of a made up war, if better applicants were falling all over themselves to sign up for the Gestapo. Which is why I don't think it's a coincidence that at the exact same time this was going down, noted D-list celebrity Superman actor Dean Cain went on Fox News to talk about the ICE recruiting drive, and then signed up immediately afterwards.

https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2025/aug/07/former-superman-actor-dean-cain-reveals-hes-becoming-an-ice-agent-to-support-trumps-mass-deportation-agenda

Former Superman actor Dean Cain reveals he’s becoming an Ice agent to support Trump’s mass deportation agenda

"Speaking on Fox News on Wednesday night, Cain told host Jesse Watters that he decided to join Ice after sharing one of their recruitment videos on his Instagram account on Tuesday, which Watters had spoken about on his show.

“I’m actually a sworn deputy sheriff and a reserve police officer – I wasn’t part of Ice, but once I put that out there and you put a little blurb on your show, it went crazy,” Cain told Watters on Wednesday. “So now I’ve spoken with some officials over at Ice, and I will be sworn in as an Ice agent, ASAP.”

You might be tempted to think that sending Dean Cain on Fox News to leverage his recent return to "relevance" into Gestapo sign ups would be too crude and obvious a propaganda ploy, but let me assure you that this is absolutely what the Trump regime is doing here. Cain's pitch about hunting down brown people being "the right thing to do" is the giveaway. Don't worry however, he also more or less just up and admitted he was doing this to get other aging racists back in the game for the Gestapo.

"Cain, who played Superman opposite Teri Hatcher as Lois Lane in Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman in the 1990s, said he hoped others would join him. “I’m stepping up,” he said. “Hopefully, a whole bunch of other former officers, former Ice agents, will step up and we’ll meet those recruitment goals immediately, and we’ll help protect this country.”

Is America great again yet?

(This thread predates our labeling system but our primary purpose here is to talk about domestic ethnic cleansing and genocide, as a function of US white nationalist immigration policy, Trump's mass deportation agenda, and of course the DHS/ICE Gestapo that enacts those policies and agendas. ICE's growing role as a militarized political police force, including ongoing DHS occupation of (mostly) Democrat-controlled American cities, is discussed in other threads.

Given that DHS, and in specific the ICE Gestapo have been the chief vehicle for Trump and Stephen Miller's larger ethno-nationalist purification project in America this past entire year, I don't think there's much hope of me catching you up on what ICE has been up to in the months since I stopped writing have passed. The short version is that they've been up to a whole lot of nazi shit, that makes it clear that at a very minimum Trump's mass deportation agenda is both real as penitentiary steel, and an ethnic cleansing operation in progress.

Of course, as far back as 2017, I was writing that Trump and Miller's then 1st term immigration policy was blatant white nationalism, and while the Swine Emperor did not yet have a large enough army to do a genocide (and ethnic cleansing is really just a polite way to say genocide; especially once some clever nazi starts pointing out that bullets cost less than boats) he was molding ICE and CBP into just such a force as we watched on live TV. I'd say that analysis aged pretty well, quite frankly; although I was certainly not the only analyst to notice - Adam Serwer in particular was writing many of the same things and issuing many of the same warnings.

Naturally, anyone who (correctly) analyzed that all of Trump and Miller's stated policy intentions pointed directly towards an ethnic cleansing operation, was dismissed as an alarmist. Yet if we fast forward to the very first year of Trump's second term in office, the reality that the entire US government has been repurposed in a variety of ways to conduct just such an ethnic cleansing in America, is so undeniable as to discredit an establishment that still wishes to pretend otherwise.

Take for example this December 13th opinion piece published in the Guardian; roughly 9 days after Trump sent 3,000 federal Gestapo goons to occupy Minneapolis, but before they'd actually murdered anyone there for exercising their constitutional rights.

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/dec/13/ethnic-cleansing-racism-us-trump-ilhan-omar-somalia

The ethnic cleansing of the United States will destroy it

"The rant is abhorrent and factually incorrect, but it does hold one truth – the Trump administration’s vision for the United States is one of a white Christian nation. And the path to accomplish it is through the exclusion and removal of all who do not fit that vision – in other words, through ethnic cleansing.

To that end, Trump and his acolytes have increasingly been using the term “reverse migration” and even proposed an “office of remigration”. The idea, borrowed from white supremacists in Europe, understands immigrants as an inherent threat to the identity of what they imagine to be “white” nations. Immigrants’ forcible and systematic removal – remigration – is envisioned as a way to “restore” that whiteness.

This vision of an ethnically cleansed, white US is being enacted in policy."

As I implied above, I don't think it *should* be controversial to refer to Trump's mass deportation agenda as an ethnic cleansing project at this point; although to some degree, it still is. The reason I chose this piece by Professor Gowayed however, is because the author walks you through the ways this ethnic cleansing project goes beyond ICE disappearing people in our streets for the color of their skin, and instead has repurposed the entire apparatus of the federal government to "restore" whiteness and white supremacy. Legitimate pathways to citizenship or residency are closed, the regime is seeking to end birthright citizenship and expand the government's power to denaturalize people who've legally obtained citizenship already. The Supreme Court has allowed immigration pigs to stop people based on race, and at the same time an openly white supremacist GOP has poured enough money into the federal Gestapo to transform Trump's immigration security forces into his own private army. The entire federal government is now feeding data into a racialized police state, mass surveillance panopticon, at the very same time the Trump regime is slashing social safety net and support programs that will disproportionally affect people of color. All of which is to say nothing about the fact that the fascist police state being unleashed on migrants, is also being simultaneously repurposed to target anyone, including white American citizens, who opposes the Gestapo, or Trump's fascist agenda at all.

I'm not gonna lie to you folks, the situation is grim; but whatever we're going to do about all of this must be done with eyes wide open. It is not hyperbole to call an obvious ethnic cleansing operation, ethnic cleansing and indeed a genocide in progress. Thanks to the long history of fascism we already know how this story ends, and waiting around for Trump to start digging mass graves is a very good way to end up with mass graves.
