And here is the correct response:
Way to go, Philadelphia! The city has introduced new legislation putting real limits on ICE activity. Federal agents will no longer be allowed to operate anonymously no masks, visible identification required, and arrests must be backed by warrants signed by a federal judge. Physical intimidation and assaults are explicitly barred. If agents ignore these rules, they wonât be protected theyâll be arrested.
âWe have a nice little database and now youâre considered a domestic terrorist,â a masked federal agent taunted a protester filming him in Maine last week.
Department of Homeland Security spokesperson Tricia McLaughlinâs response was firm: âThere is NO database of âdomestic terroristsâ run by DHS.â
Thereâs just one problem: Sheâs lying.
Two senior national security officials tell me that there are more than a dozen secret and obscure watchlists that homeland security and the FBI are using to track protesters (both anti-ICE and pro-Palestinian), âAntifa,â and others who are promiscuously labeled âdomestic terrorists.â
I can reveal for the first time that some of the secret lists and applications go by codenames like Bluekey, Grapevine, Hummingbird, Reaper, Sandcastle, Sienna, Slipstream, and Sparta (including the ominous sounding HEL-A and HEL-C reports generated by Sparta). (...)
yep. It's a pretty obvious development. The economics of Trump's ICE "deportation" blitz already show this is not just about deportation.
From Oliver Kornetzke:
TAKE NOTICE:
This regime insists it is only trying to deport âcriminals,â yet it is pouring obscene amounts of money into warehouses, tent cities, and what it carefully labels âdetention facilitiesââa phrase doing Olympic-level rhetorical work to obscure what these places actually are: concentration camps. If the objective were merely deportation, this spending pattern would make no sense. Deportation is a throughput problem: short stays, rapid processing, minimal infrastructure. You move people quickly or you donât build at all. You do not pour billions into permanent cages to facilitate removal. You build permanent cages to facilitate retention.
That is the contradiction people need to understand. This has never been about deportation. It is about mass confinement. What is being constructed bears little resemblance to an immigration system and far more resemblance to a carceral architecture designed for long-term use: durable facilities, privatized management, opaque oversight, and legal ambiguity baked into the process itself. This is not an endpoint system. It is an intake system.
What is emerging looks far less like immigration enforcement and far more like an Americanized GULAG model: a geographically dispersed archipelago of for-profit run concentration camps designed to disappear people into bureaucratic limbo. Not just those convicted of crimes, but anyone deemed inconvenient, destabilizing, or politically threatening to the regime. Once the infrastructure exists, the definition of who belongs inside it becomes infinitely flexible.

No need to wonder who he's blaming... he's listed them by name.
I never really loved Bruce like I was supposed to...Jersey kid whose friends can name every time they saw him... but I appreciate his willing to call shit out. It's a very Jersey trait...directness (said with love, it's not aggression.... really).

Hopefully the next Dem Pres hires an AG with a take no prisoners attitude. Letitia James comes to mind. Someone who will not give a shit if you were pardoned or not, you will spend a lot of time and money in a courtroom.
I think the GOP doesn't get it that, in response to the blitzkrieg that was Project 2025, there will be a similar "he never existed and his followers will be punished, too" plan that will happen the moment the proper power switch happens.
No, it's all federal charges so he'll preemptively pardon the entire GOP on his way out. Including himself; last time around there was a debate about whether he could pardon himself but this time he'll just do it and let them fight over it forever.
