The Defense Department has mobilized 700 troops to assist Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Florida, Louisiana and Texas.
These troops will “not participate in law enforcement activities” but will “provide logistical support, and conduct administrative and clerical functions,” according to Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell. The troops were deployed last week, Parnell said.
The three states have seen several large-scale ICE raids since Trump took office in January and implemented his hardline anti-immigration agenda, promising to carry out the “largest deportation operation in American history.”

Remember when we had the Posse Comitatus Act? The law that makes doing this unambiguously illegal?
Fuck, they are going ahead and normalizing this. The coup continues to consolidate its grip.
This is death by strangulation
If you’ve wondered why everything looks like a coup since he got in, perhaps it is because it is one.

Edit: the upvote/downvote ratio on a comment like this shows how rapidly Lemmy is turning into Reddit. Nobody cares about the data, if you remotely sound like defending the GOP down the chute you go.
It’s your loss America. I’ll sleep fine as long as we don’t have electronic voting systems here.
You don’t have to read all those documents. You can just go read project 2025 mandate. Its only 900+ pages 
Are you whining? Down vote.
That YouTube clip, hell he all but admits that he rigged the election.
It’s so much more sinister than this. To understand he is not senile and going to bed and waking up every day knowing this and having this on his consciousness.
It’s interesting that you post a message like that when yours is the majority position on Lemmy and comes up regularly. Any time I post conflicting data on the election, I’m down voted at about a 40/60 ratio up/down. Meanwhile politically I’m somewhere between Lenin and Bernie.
No I accidentally included that edit from my previous comment in another post which experienced that.
The voting behaviour is very strange. To my autistic head black on white data indicating the “leader of the free world” may have have taken control over the largest nuclear arsenal of the world seems pretty unequivocally the most important message of our times, but people on social media just go
_But the way you’re saying it is not nice, so until you learn to be kind, I think the best path forward for humanity is to downvote so less people see that random information you’re posting. (Which I didn’t bother to read frankly, because did I mention your tone was off) _
I’m beginning to understand why the human race is really a race to the bottom.

Lol I mindlessly copy pasted my edit from the previous post, this should be a fun upvote downvote battle to watch. At least these votes are counted correctly and one time per user.
and you are still getting downvoted
In this post they are downvoting correctly thankfully. I admit I have changed my ways in the last 24 hours.
So they want to kill all the cheap labor based businesses in core red States? Congratulations. Smart decision. This will definitely boost the next election results.
Aww that’s cute that you think there’s going to be a next election. And if there is, I guarantee they’ve already gerrymandered and election machine tampered it into the result they want.
They. Do. Not. Care. About. A. Next. Election.
Yeah, that guy kitted out in body armour carrying a massive cockrifle is just a secretary, bro. Helping with the paperwork, brah.
and we will spit in the food of every one of them if we get the chance to.
Thank goodness—soon all us purportedly white people will be totally safe from the scourge of all the darker-skinned people cleaning our homes, our yards & hotel rooms…/s
