America will have its own Gulag Archipelago. Twenty-three concentration camps will soon come online, unless, together, we can find and pull the political handbrake.
America will have its own Gulag Archipelago. Twenty-three concentration camps will soon come online, unless, together, we can find and pull the political handbrake.
"Without concentration camps, without the undefined fear they inspire and the very well-defined training they offer in totalitarian domination, which can nowhere else be tested with all of its most radical possibilities, a totalitarian state can neither inspire its nuclear troops with fanaticism nor maintain a whole people in complete apathy."
--Hannah Arendt, "Totalitarianism in Power"
ICE will pursue these projects quietly whenever possible.
ICE will obfuscate and sow misinformation to frustrate inquiry.
ICE will not alert community leaders where new detention facilities are being planned and constructed.
ICE will endeavor to fill every bed in these new camps. Tens of thousands of "beds."
Once built, the gears of these camps must turn with maximum efficiency and therefore with built-in inhumanity.

At least 20 communities with large warehouses across the U.S. have become stealth targets for Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s $45-billion expansion of detention centers. Communities are objecting to mass detentions and raising concerns that the facilities could strain water supplies and other services while reducing local tax revenue. In many cases, mayors, county commissioners, governors and members of Congress learned about ICE’s ambitions only after the agency bought or leased space for detainees. That's led to shock and frustration even in areas that have backed President Donald Trump. This is happening as public support for ICE and Trump's immigration crackdown sags.
