The topic of a five-year-old being detained by ICE in Minnesota has gained significant search interest, surpassing 20,000 searches, primarily due to the recent media coverage surrounding the incident. This surge in searches is largely attributed to the high-profile nature of the case and the specific involvement of a minor, which often draws heightened attention from the public and media alike.
Recent articles, including one from USA Today, highlight Vice President Vance’s defense of ICE’s actions, bringing the issue to the forefront of national discourse. The defense of such a controversial operation, particularly involving a child, is likely to provoke curiosity and concern, prompting individuals to seek more information about the circumstances surrounding the detainment.
Additionally, the fact-checking measures being undertaken, as reported by El Paso Matters, further contribute to the trending status of this topic. As the situation evolves and more details emerge, people are likely searching for accurate information regarding the child’s detention and the implications of the actions taken by ICE in this case. This combination of political commentary and fact-checking efforts has created an environment conducive to increased search activity.

Should we see ICE as a terrorist organisation?
C
They are. They are a klansmen’s wet dream. They are the American Taliban.
M
All those years they whined about “sharia law” wasn’t about “protecting Americans”; they were jealous and wanted to do those things here they heard about happening in the Middle East.
W
Hypocrisy is a maga cultists game.
R
There is no hypocrisy here. This is what they always wanted, chanted for, voted for. They have always been racist assholes who see “the other” as not American. They are not hypocrites, just white supremacists.
W
Then boy does america have alot of em..
S
“The south will rise again” was not a refrain made in an empty gesture.
O
Like stink on shit.

[they’ve dug up an old play book](https://youtu.be/njHOJHb86HI?si=-phmuoZWaBca774T) Like it was pointed out, this is what they’ve wanted. They slow walked us into it with help from people that said we were exaggerating and being boomers. This is what we end up with. The same shit over and over again
D
Decades of post 9/11 propaganda from outlets like FoxNews and billionaire propped up creators like TP, DW, etc have cultivated an army of zombie racists.

Seriously, I’m sick of seeing the “rules for thee but not for me” type comments on posts like this *every single day.* When are people going to realise that these people are not hypocrites, because they never held a moral stance in the first place. They’re literally just opportunistic animals who use whatever laws are available to them in order to subjugate *anyone who disagrees with them*. That’s all it boils down to. You see it when members of the far right don’t agree on a topic; they become absolutely vile to each other. We’re well past the time of discussion and negotiation with these fools; their words are meaningless because they’ll say whatever they have to to get what they want, with entities like FOX “news” providing all the semi-coherent talking points for them. There’s nothing we can do to diplomatically compromise with far-right social conservatives. ***They have no values, they just want everyone to conform to their worldview by any means necessary; we all need to wake up and act accordingly.***

Its always a shifting other too, so they can never be satisfied, weather its muslims, or trans-people, or gay people, or woke leftists, or black people, or immigrants, or latino people, or RINO’s, or or or or! Its just an endless stream of fabrication from the smallest possible truths to claim the end is nigh and rally their base.
F
This is why I always say, Hate won’t stop before it comes for you. Hate has no end. This is why people chant, Hate has no place here! And why Loving someone different from you is an act of defiance in the face of hate.
A
Thank you.
R
The whole every accusation is a confession is so true. Everytime maga accuses the left of something crazy, it’s because the right is already doing said crazy shit.

I’ve said it for years. The only difference between american evangelicals and islamic extremists is their choice in reading material

I remember getting heavily downvoted before the elections for saying that US can become a Christian version of Iran, with religious militias in charge…
C
Alright well I guess that reaction is dependent on who the audience is, but also: we have tons of publically available info now proven that ICE is not motivated by law, but race. We have footage of them retaliating against legal protestors. If ICE kidnapping children, mistreating children, using them as hostages. All that said the people who downvoted you should have seen all this coming. Maybe they didn’t. But they can’t honestly deny it now.
R
If you believe that they won’t deny it then I have some affordably priced bridges to sell you. They’re deep into the sunken cost fallacy. Just go over to the conservative sub if you don’t believe me.
A
A lot of republican politicians are connected to the dominionist Christians who want an Iran style government.

There is no need to compare them to foreign organizations. The United States has plenty of home-grown ones to use, such as the KKK and the slave catchers of the civil war. The United States also inspired the Holocaust with our genocide of the natives and with Jim Crow laws. All these comparisons to foreign organizations make it sound like this is something abnormal to come out of the United States but the truth is this rot has always been here and it runs so deep I don’t think we can simply reform our way out of it. If we snapped our fingers and it was suddenly 2012 again that rot would still be there and it would manifest again, and if we don’t cut out that rot when we have the chance it will just come back in a generation. Edit: the same goes for police crackdowns on protests. No need to compare us to Iran or China, just look back to the civil rights movement (a lot of those racists yelling at kids in those photos are still alive and still vote, btw) or the labor movement, where companies hired literal mercenaries to kill striking workers. America has always been a violent, sick police state. “A peoples history of the United States” should be required reading, especially for progressives.
C
I think that can and *should* keep comparing them to these other infamous organizations because the comparison is so devastatingly appropriate. It’s not for nothing- it’s to try to convince people who are unsure to come off the fence. We must raise the alarm, shout, rage against them if we’re going to try and change things for the better again.
D
Ice is the Hutu, the VRS, the Khmer Rouge. Its ethnic cleansing.
A
AAAAAND what are we going to do about it? Tell me. More protests with catchy slogans & goofy pictures? I’m absolutely sure that tactic will work *this time*! I know the other 10,000 times didn’t *quite* work, but THIS TIME WILL BE DIFFERENT! >!The USA is officially in shithole territory now & won’t be surpirsed when public executions happen this time next year when ICE detains all naysayers!<
S
It will with the cowards we have in this country. That’s exactly why I’m trying to find a way out! We can’t even get some of these cowards on board with a national strike! They even too scared to stay at home! When the lynchings start, my black ass is gonna be lynched while these cowards wring their hands and yell on reddit! They are still waiting on a superman to come save us! Nobody’s coming to save us! I’m so done!
A
Precisely. The Democratic party has enough fractures in it that it’s essentially a party in name only. See the recent [budget increase](https://thehill.com/homenews/house/5702347-house-democrats-homeland-security-funding/) for ICE as an example. Remember [Cory Booker](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cory_Booker#U.S._Senate)? He was *dead set* on helping get Healthcare For All to the American people… until he got his senate seat, and *on top of that* he took a healthy amount of money from the health care industries in the week up to him being sworn in. That one stung & hurt *a lot*. Please don’t get me wrong, I’ve never voted for the GOP. It’s just I’m *far more aware* of the failing of the Democratic Party than some people are comfortable with.
M
its crazy to me as a Canadian that Americans do not understand how FUCKED they truly are. Nothing is ever going back to normal. Perhaps if they are white and christian it won’t impact them as much. But America will be more akin to Russia in the coming decade.
A
> Americans do not understand how FUCKED I live in Chicago, a blue-ish city. The amount of people that still think Biden is the fault of all this is remarkably high. > white and christian And financially well off, don’t forget that.
F
I’m in St Paul. I have a connection to ChongLy Thao, the US citizen who was wrongfully detained by ICE last weekend and was hauled out of his house wearing nothing but shorts and crocs. My Asian friends and family are literally afraid to leave their houses, and even then, they always bring their passports and green cards with them. We are truly under siege by these ICE Lice.
L
I am also in Chicago & don’t know a single person living here that is not shaken to the core & actively informed/involved. Now the suburbs of Chicago is another story.

They’re the KKK, the brown shirts. They are the same people that signed up to join Hitler in the 1930s.

~~~ The Bill of Rights (BOR) protects all people in the United States, including undocumented (illegal) immigrants, but not every right applies equally. 🇺🇸 Bill of Rights — Pocket Edition I. Freedom Protects freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly, and petition. II. Arms Acknowledges that a well-regulated militia is essential to security. Guarantees the individual right to keep and bear arms for lawful defense of self, state, and nation. III. Quartering Prohibits housing soldiers in private homes without consent, except under lawful wartime procedures. IV. Search & Seizure Protects against unreasonable searches and seizures. Requires warrants to be supported by probable cause and specifically describe the place and items involved. V. Due Process Bars double jeopardy and compelled self-incrimination. Ensures due process before deprivation of life, liberty, or property, and guarantees just compensation for taken property. VI. Fair Trial Ensures a speedy and public trial by an impartial jury. Grants the accused the right to know charges, confront witnesses, obtain witnesses in their favor, and have counsel. VII. Civil Jury Preserves the right to a jury trial in civil cases exceeding twenty dollars in value. VIII. Punishment Prohibits excessive bail, excessive fines, and cruel or unusual punishments. IX. People’s Rights Clarifies that enumerating certain rights does not deny or disparage others retained by the people. X. States’ Powers Reserves to the states or the people all powers not delegated to the federal government. 🫡 Quote from the Declaration of Independence. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
B
Republican SCOTUS has made the bill of rights almost meaningless.
V
We could always ignore the legal system and just fix the problem. Collectively we outnumber them, and there is quite literally nothing they could do about it. Could just force them to step down, and hold special elections. 
V
Theres a difference between a standard/rule/whatever and an implementation/enforcement of it. One can state something but implement the complete opposite of it. Very good example: North Korea has democracy.
H
The Bill of Rights is worthless when the Executive Branch refuses to enforce it. The Justice Department no longer exists to serve the people. It serves one man and does not prosecute or investigate obvious crimes that are inconvenient to their Master, such as the Renee Goode assassination. Americans of color are no longer protected by the Equal Rights Amendment. They must carry citizenship papers, and even that is worthless to the Brownshirts, such as this case. Yes, this is the end of the USA experiment and it only took one man to bring it down.

They don’t give a fuck about your rights. You’re really slow to understand that in the U.S.
M
ICE-is sounding more and more like one
M
I don’t believe that terror is the end goal, rather, it’s about inciting the people to revolt so they can exert even more coercion. The term “agent provocateur” would be more appropriate.
G
Bullies don’t stop bullying on their own if they are allowed to keep doing it without consequences.
