ICE actions in Kentucky

The map and chart above says it all. The Orange Menace’s Gestapo has seized 2,000 people in Kentucky since his kakocratic and keptocratic administration gained power nine months ago.

According to the Kentucky Center for Economic Policy, the atrocities of ICE extend across the United States.

A year into the Trump presidency, the administration’s mass deportation effort has resulted in a historic high of 68,990 immigrants locked up in detention, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is becoming increasingly aggressive in its pursuit of arrests. Despite mounting public outrage and fear, however, a growing number of local police and jails in Kentucky are entering into agreements and contracts to cooperate with ICE. And Kentucky legislators are proposing ways to further ramp up deportation efforts across the state even as ICE arrests in the state surge and the number of detainees in local jails increases.

State and local governments play a central role in implementing this mass deportation agenda, which includes financial incentives for law enforcement agencies to formally partner with ICE and for jails to rent out beds for detention. In Kentucky, 22 local law enforcement groups have already signed 287(g) agreements and 11 county jails are contracting with ICE to hold detainees. That is an increase of 8 additional law enforcement groups and 2 more county jails just in the last few months. In addition, several bills have already been filed this legislative session that would require local agencies to participate.

But here’s the evil part.

If you’re on Facebook, read the comments accompanying this post, and you’ll find they’re infested with MAGAts saying how great ICE is and how much they support the corrupt, flatulent, immoral pedophile and everything he does. These alleged “people of God” have demonstrated that they have no idea what’s in the Bible and have no comprehension of what compassion means.

Xenophobic miscreants want to be treated as decent human beings, when they’re not. They are the reason innocent people are cowering in fear, the reason innocent mothers are being shot in the streets, the reason everything this country allegedly stood for has been dismantled and the reason racism is reaching the level of acceptance it enjoyed back when civil-rights marchers were beaten in the streets in the mid-20th century.

Yes, the corruption in the White House is staggering. But the ignorance and hatred permeating this country by the MAGAt base is the reason this has happened and will continue to plague us for years to come.
