Running thread for ICE Raid coverage.

In New York City, ICE agents went to residences in the Harlem section of Manhattan and Brooklyn’s Sunset Park neighborhood, the person said. The agents were rejected by people at the residences because they didn’t have warrants, but plan to return at least to Sunset Park tomorrow, according to the person.

 

WTF ??? no warrants ??? what the fuck kind of mickey mouse shit are they trying to pull ?

 

This is 100% political stunt. Trumpkins will be eating this up. Arrest Crooks, Not Cooks !

So the agents showed up without warrants, went back to get warrants, and will return tomorrow to knock at the same apartments that will then be empty.

How do you right wingers feel about this?  Does it concern you that the Trump administration may not be able to effectively implement the racism it promised you?

Fucking-A, these idiots can't even do ethnic purges correctly.  Yes, Sunset Park is heavily Hispanic/Latino.  But "Harlem"?  Harlem, the neighborhood, is Black.  Now nearby, you've got some heavily Hispanic/Latino neighborhoods like Washington Heights, Hudson Heights, and East Harlem.  But you ain't gonna find any illegals in Harlem, but you would in those other places mentioned.  

If only there was somebody in charge of all this, somebody way up at the top ordering these raids.....somebody who not only wanted these ICE raids conducted, but who also intimately knew the ins and outs of the myriad New York neighborhoods from decades of experience in the New York real estate scene.  Such a person could easily direct ICE to the parts of the 5 boroughs that are heavily Hispanic/Latino/recent immigrants.  But where in today's political climate, could such a NYC real estate mogul-turned-political leader of racist-inspired ICE raids...be found?

Remember when Trump criticized Obama for announcing future plans for the militarty in Iraq and Syria? And then did the same thing himself? And now this? It's just more of the Trump reality tv show. 

Of course he started in Harlem.

Earlier, wasn't the Trump organization selling VISAs to rich Chinese?

That was the Kushners, using Trump and Jared in their marketing campaign.

They should probably go to a gym and pump each other

At least they left instead of busting in without a warrant...kinder, gentler Nazis

Well, I know some ICE agents who won't be getting jobs with Houston PD when they are looking for a job transition.

Yep. Another step towards full-on authoritarianism as the right and the center find a way to forgive each incremental step. 20 years after the fact, they'll think, "Oh no, how could we have seen this coming!?"

Going back for a warrant?  What kind of shit is that?  All they have to do is pretend that they mistook the immigrants' houses for their own and then they can legally murder everyone inside.

No dogs inside the concentration camps, so the cops' insatiable bloodlust didn't cross over the threshhold.

An armed man was fatally shot early Saturday during a confrontation with police after he hurled incendiary devices at a Washington state immigration detention center, Tacoma police said.

The shooting occurred about 4 a.m. local time outside the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Northwest Detention Center, where the man attempted to set the building and parked cars on fire, according to police spokeswoman Loretta Cool.
Authorities did not immediately identify the man who was armed with a rifle, saying in a statement the "medical examiner will release the identity of the victim when it is appropriate."

pretty generous use of 'victim' terminology.  could also go with 'dude hurling molotov cocktails'

You mean Donnie gave another empty threat?  Shocked I tell you, shocked.

[lemonlime 5,503]

Of course there haven't been. The point was never to deport people.  Hell, if the administration was truly concerned with illegal immigration, it would go after employers instead of immigrants.  

The cruelty is the point.  Make sure immigrants are afraid to leave their houses.

Typical Nazi move to deny the ethnic cleansing ever happened.

Just like the bombing in Syria, they announced it so everyone had to time to get educated, hide somewhere else and do what needed to be done.
