ICE's Biggest Fear Is Transparency
They aren't rounding up "the worst of the worst" they are going after the easiest, most vulnerable targets, and they're bypassing the law to do it. Trump's goal was to deport 5,000 per day and thank god they are nowhere near reaching that goal. The arrest records show that the overwhelming majority of those being detained are not criminals. Those claimed to have "criminal records" mostly have minor things like traffic violations. Even if you paint those people as "criminals" they are far from being gang leaders or "the worst of the worst."
What they have succeeded in doing is terrorizing our communities by carrying out raids with violent heavily-armed masked Gestapo thugs with no police training. When SCOTUS allowed racial profiling through "Kavanaugh Stops" that's exactly the method they used. They're trying to detain as many people as possible in order to reach their mission quotas, the laws be damned. They don't want the public to know what the real arrest numbers and criminal statistics are because it points to their abject mission failure despite all of their bluster and propaganda.
Our greatest weapon against these domestic terrorists is to use our whistles and record everything that they do. We've been winning all of these legal cases mostly because of the videos that prove how they lie in court. We have to organize rapid-response groups in every community as they spread their efforts across the nation.
In reporting out of Louisiana, it shows how the local and state police are helping them monitor social media through the local DHS Fusion Center. When DHS, the feds, and police got hacked during BlueLeaks we learned exactly how these fusion centers really work. Very few press outlets would cover the BlueLeaks revelations because of their relationship with police, but in places where the truly independent media covered it the fusion center got quickly shut down. The BlueLeaks data trove is still published on DDOSecrets.com, and although it's a few years old, it is still of great value in understanding their training, procedures, and the propaganda that is disseminated.
Here's the latest reporting about the operations they're conducting in New Orleans:
