      Reader bypasses it.

      The incoming Trump administration is planning a large-scale immigration raid in Chicago next week, according to four people familiar with the planning, the first move in President-Elect Donald Trump’s promised mass deportation campaign.

      The raid is expected to begin on Tuesday morning, a day after Trump is inaugurated, and will last all week, the people said. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement will send between 100 and 200 officers to carry out the operation.

      Bit odd to announce where it is. Don’t go to work next week if you’re in Chicago I guess.

        Thank you. I tried using archive extensions with no luck, just got blocked repeatedly. Maybe I’m using it wrong.

        Is that the entire article though or is there more?

          They’re doing some weird things right now I think. I was posting a big paragraph about peak oil on slrpnk.net a couple hours ago and that’s when slrpnk went down. Maybe I’m just paranoid.

    This guy is going to intentionally tank the economy at the behest of Papa Putin.

      All according to plan, and 50% of the population think they want it 🤣

      Have fun Americans, show the rest of the world why being red is a bad idea so we can stop slipping that way for another couple of years. Tbh I would have thought Brexit would have shown that but I guess Americans didn’t want to be outdone on stupid self destructive acts.

        shown that but I guess Americans didn’t want to be outdone on stupid self destructive acts.

        The percentage of Americans that are aware of Brexit, let alone the problems with it, is vanishing small.

        As an American, I doubt most Americans could even describe what Brexit was let alone the after-effects of it.

    This wouldn’t be possible without a bunch of people already working for the new administration over the current one. I’m deeply concerned about how quickly and efficiently they are doing things—the opposite of the incompetence that was the hallmark of his first administration.

      It’s not like ICE is made up of a random assortment of Americans. It’s not much of a surprise that they would be talking to republicans basically all the time.

      The hardest part of watching brexit was knowing how many people there knew it was a terrible idea. The knowing that you could see how stupid it was and could do nothing to convince the stupids in there to realize they are too stupid to make up their own minds. With this trash internet that has infected our society we are at the mercy of the stupids. The stupids let themselves be lead around like sheep while calling everyone else sheep.
