Welcome to the new era
"Man's distinguishing trait is not logic but imagination and, more precisely, unbridled imagination, defunctionalized imagination." -- Cornelius Castoriadis
It appears as if we are well past the stage of mere wannabe fascism and into the one where dreams are realized.

and then you have this notion, which I've been trying to discuss.
Trump DHS Post Calling for ‘100 Million Deportations’ Suggests Intent to Kick Out Nonwhite Citizens
It receives an interesting depiction in Jeffrey St. Clair's column of three days ago, incl.:
+ Using federal tax dollars, the Department of Homeland Security posted this ethnic cleansing fantasy on its social media account on New Year’s Eve. Appropriately, the image is by a Japanese artist.

Meanwhile, St. Clair suggests, in cold Minnesota:
And, courtesy of ICE itself:

So, no, their immigration propaganda has nothing to do with their actual behavior. They are arresting people who are just there, without any real excuse for doing so. They are narcissists, of the type described by Phil Ochs:

Funny, but I would have sworn that the 4th Amendment specifically forbade this sort of unlawful blanket search and seizure. Oh, well- the Constitution was good while it lasted, wasn’t it?
It appears to me that they deliberately intend to manufacture a civil war in some of those "horrible commie blue states". Sooner or later, they'll kick down the door of one of the many actual US citizens who are fully prepared to fight back, in defense of their constitutionally-"guaranteed" right to the peaceful enjoyment of their own homes.
The stormtroopers seem to believe that they are immortal. It is such a terrible tragedy that innocent US citizens will have to die to prove them wrong...
Might does not make right: might makes corpses. This is going down a very dark path indeed, and if it goes much further there will be no returning.

ICE is not nice

The fact that local communities and municipalities are fighting back and
banding together is a good sign. Whistles were passed-out at our democracy
group to be used wherever the ICE gestapo are operating. Warning people and
drawing the crowd in to disrupt proceedings. We have the numbers in our favor.
