The vast “immigration” apparatus is quickly migrating to a political enforcement apparatus.
The original excuse for building a vast “enforcement” apparatus was to deport “immigrants.” (People who are not white.) The pretense was “immigration” but the purpose was political — they sent them to “liberal” states and cities.
Now the right and their propaganda apparatus have drummed up a fake story about “fraud” in Minnesota. So guess what? They’re sending more agents to terrorize Minnesota over “fraud”, not “immigration.” NYTimes, Noem Says ‘Hundreds More’ Agents Will Be Sent to Minnesota Over ‘Corruption’,
Minneapolis crackdown: Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem told Fox News that “hundreds more” federal agents were being dispatched to Minneapolis to uncover “true corruption,” citing a yearslong federal investigation into social program fraud in the state. The deployment, to be carried out Sunday and Monday, comes after an ICE agent shot and killed a woman, Renee Good, there on Wednesday. On CNN, Ms. Noem again claimed that Ms. Good had attempted to “run over” agents.
Building the vast apparatus was never about “immigration.” It was about building a vast apparatus to enforce fascism.
