      It had some sort of surge in New Orleans, but the Republicans in Louisiana are overjoyed to see city folk get stomped on. Almost all cities are blue, so deploying to a red state just means the governor will cheer them on rather than talk tough and do nothing.

      For someone stuck in a red state, Trump is making where being a blue state puts you in danger. Here Oklahoma don’t see ICE doing this shit here. I really want out and wanted to go to a blue state. But looks like better leaving this shit hole country.

    Maine, notorious hotbed for illegal immigration and violence from undocumented immigrants. Definitely an efficient use of valuable ICE resources.

    Wait, you mean it has nothing to do with immigration enforcement?

    Wasn’t it a year or two ago that all of the Republican governors were sending these immigrants to “blue cities.” And now the Trump administration is raiding all of those blue cities? I’m not much of a conspiracy theorist, but these two seem connected.

    Maine is the 3rd whitest state in the US:

    We’re likely to see a lot more violence directed at white US citizens. Maybe it will finally change some minds on the right.

    Moving armed feds towards certain cities every week sounds a lot more like a wartime battle than immigration customs enforcement at a border.
