The Trump administration has set strict quotas for arresting anyone even suspected of being in the country illegally, with Stephen Miller ordering that 3,000 people be arrested every single day, or ICE officers will face consequences

What the fuck

Quotas are supposed to be illegal for law enforcement, not that they care about rule of law, but should be another note for the second Nuremberg Trials.

ICE is not law enforcement

ICE is law enforcement, you are mistaken.

Nazis. That's what the fuck. It is all so "by the book". That book was supposed to warm us away from stuff like this. But nazi rhetoric is being wielded so fiercely in 2025 that the rest of us are, justifiably, pretty confused.

So while that could 100% be real, the tweet source is a shady Nazi promoting rag, just to provide some context. It's full of propaganda and fearbait even with a Hitler worship piece in their recent articles this year.
