Is your community on this map?

ICE is spending hundreds of millions of dollars to buy up industrial warehouses all around the country. These are planned concentration camps.

Among the proposals for these camps is the construction of biohazard incinerators.

The one in Minnesota, in Shakopee, has been blocked so far by community activism. That one was a bit surprising: Shakopee is mainly known for Valleyfair, a seasonal amusement park, and the Minnesota Renaissance Fair. It would have kind of wrecked the family weekend if the kids had to deal with smoke from the crematorium drifting over the celebration.

We’re one short step away from building ICE death camps.

    I assume most here are familiar with the story of the Irish citizen that is in the US legally and is being held in a private prison despite the courts ordering his release.
    They are not even pretending anymore.

    Birger, the claim about “the courts ordering his release” was superseded.

    cf. https://www.irishtimes.com/ireland/2026/02/11/irishman-detained-in-texas-overstayed-90-day-visitors-visa-issued-in-2009/

    In her ruling on January 23rd, Judge Kathleen Cardone noted that Culleton had entered the US under a visa waiver programme that allowed visits of not more than 90 days.

    Under the programme, beneficiaries “waive any right … to contest other than on the basis of an application for asylum, any action for removal” from the US.

    […]

    In October he requested a bond hearing, and an immigration judge ordered he be released on a $4,000 bond, which was paid by his wife, Tiffany Smyth.

    However, the decision was successfully challenged on the grounds that visa waiver recipients are not entitled to make bail bond applications. On November 14th, Ice served Culleton with an order of removal on the grounds that he violated the terms of his visa waiver.

    “They are not even pretending anymore.”

    You are not keeping up.
