'10 Companies Have Already Made $1 Million as ICE Bounty Hunters. We Found Them.' theintercept.com/2025/12/23/i... 'And they stand to make millions more in cash bonuses for surveilling and tracking immigrants in service of ICE’s deportation machine.' #Trump #GOP #ICE #cronyism

These 10 companies stand to rake in $1 billion by 2027 by helping ICE track down and round up immigrants. Cashing in on cruelty.

If Trump saw a globe rather than a Mercator projection he might notice that Greenland is actually smaller than Algeria.

Bit of a parable here.

What can Europe do to deter America from seizing Greenland? 1. Making the U.S. aware of the implications of seizing Greenland 2. Preparing a deterrent package, by threatening to: - Suspend U.S. trade deals - sell-off of U.S. debt holdings - Invoke EU mutual defense clause preemptively

Der Reflex in einigen deutschen Medien, automatisch in faktenfreien „Both sidesism“ zu verfallen, wenn es um staatlich sanktionierten Terror und Mord geht - egal ob beim Thema Venezuela, ICE oder Grönland - ist eine Bankrotterklärung an Journalismus. „Polarisierung“ ist halt ein bequemes Buzzword.
