We the U.S., definitely have some monsters on par with Hitler and Putin’s regime. It’s no surprise how 2 decades of I.C.E. (Immigration and Customs Enforcement; an organization created as part of the also then new Department of Homeland Security after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in the U.S.) have managed to turned into the modern day Gestapo, further enabled by this current regime of sociopathetic monsters that make up the executive branch.

I’ve heard separately (not covered in this report) about how I.C.E. has managed to attract many white supremacist/racists over the years (especially in the Customs and Border Patrol special tactical unit called the Border Control Tactical Unit aka B.O.R.T.A.C.). It therefore makes a lot more sense how cruel many of these agents can be when conducting these raids.
Some people still think a lot of this talk about how history (Nazi Germany) is repeating itself currently in the U.S. as being alarmist hyperbole, that this cannot happen here and that someone will stop it. Anyone who still believes that hasn’t been paying attention. We have complicit media and politicians to “thank” for that by normalizing the downplaying of what has been going on. They downplay it by sanitizing the wording. These El Salvador “prisons” that detainees are being taken to (again, without actual due process), are in fact concentration camps that people are being disappeared to.
These “deportations” aren’t following the proper procedures (no due process plus an actual deportation judge signing off on everything). Thus people based on their look or in other cases, what they’ve protested about, are being kidnapped and then human trafficked to these concentration camps via these flights. And once they are off American soil, there is no accountability or way to know what is going on with these people. The recent 5-4 SCOTUS ruling just makes habeas corpus something that most will never be able to use. The judiciary is therefore no longer a guardrail because the 6 conservatives on the high court (with the Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Barrett trading off their rulings in these 5 to 4 decisions just to make it look like they still believe in the rule of law or the Constitution).
Just like with the concentration camps in Nazi Germany, expect actual deaths to happen (the problem is we may never hear about them and/or how until much later). There have already been deaths in the “detention centers” (also concentration camps) in the U.S. ICE has a policy since 2021 to put out notices regarding deaths that occurred at a facility. I don’t want to link directly to the site (I’d suggest using a VPN) but just do a simple search for “ICE detainee deaths” (this link is to DDG search) to come up with hits and pay more attention to ones that have happened since these raids have been happening since January 20, 2025.
There was also that leaked viral video taken by a detainee awaiting deportation showing the overcrowded conditions of the Krome Detention Center in Miami, Florida (March 2025). Again under this regime, detention centers should now be looked at in the context as concentration camps. And any deaths that occur as a result of poor/inhumane conditions, should be looked as no different than the early deaths that occurred in the concentration camps of Nazi Germany (it just later ramped up to the holocaust levels). This is the ugly truth of what the U.S. is turning into as it slides into autocracy.
This regime will of course deny there is an actual holocaust happening just because most of it isn’t happening on American soil. But those detainees in El Salvador or Gitmo still came from here; some of whom may be completely innocent and swept up in a raid and given zero due process. If not even the above story of these flights makes you angry, then you lack humanity, lack a human soul, and have no conscience. And these are the kind of fascist monsters who are running the U.S. right now. I believe we’ve already crossed the rubicon with the rule of law and the U.S. Constitution only mattering to those in power (while the rest of us have those rights stripped away and be subjected to whatever “law” is the flavor of the day). People need to wake up and stop treating them like they are a normal administration.
