ICE is looking into 'mobile detention facilities'

Immigration and Customs Enforcement plans to create "mobile detention facilities" for immigrant detainees in Pennsylvania, according to publicly available government documents. It's part of a massive detention expansion that began last year when the agency turned into the highest-funded U.S. law enforcement agency, with a $75 billion supplement from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

This shift in strategy comes after ICE started buying large warehouses nationwide to turn into mega detention centers.

Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons described wanting squads of trucks rounding up immigrants and having the deportation process run like "[Amazon] Prime, but with human beings."

This idea doesn't seem that far a stretch away from the mobile execution vans from China.

If all of this is supposedly about deportation, then why do they need so much detention?

So, legitimately, when do people start shooting back? Don’t get me wrong, I don’t want to see any sort of armed conflict, but there’s only so much people can take.

That's not cringe. Cringe is just sad. This is incitement, which isn't protected by the First Amendment.

Yeah, libertarians don’t have the balls to follow through with a threat like that. That’s why it’s cringe.

Maybe, but the inciters never do what they can get others to do for them. Remember what instigated J6: an inciting speech from the jackass
