Donald Trump ordered ICE officers to prioritize deportations in Democrat-run cities in a wild Truth Social rant Sunday night.

Trump issued the unprecedented, politically motivated orders just hours after millions of protesters gathered in major American cities, calling for Trump’s megalomania to be curbed.

Trump told ICE staff to “do all in their power” to detain and deport undocumented immigrants in Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York.

Protests in these cities—and many more Democrat-controlled districts—attracted millions of citizens on Saturday, dwarfing the crowd that attended Trump’s birthday parade in Washington, D.C.

    If he knows there are millions and millions of illegal aliens, why is he rounding up the legal ones?

    • “millions and millions” is total bs
    • technically they’re probably not. It looks like they have a bunch of new unqualified people and set impossible quotas.

    While I would never have sympathy for any officers knowingly complying with illegal orders, it also fits with the current administration that management is by bullying, threats, impossible demands, and no concern for correctness until a scapegoat is needed

    Any semi-coherent post from Donnie is written by someone other than him. If he posted it he would have gotten distracted halfway through.

    Preventing admission of anyone who undermines the domestic tranquility of the United States.

    Any reasonable interpretation of this means that he just gave the order to keep himself from returning.

    The population of those cities combined is around 15 million. He wants to deport millions upon millions. Whatcha gonna do about the crumbling infrastructure and buildings that will become ghost towns and ruins. Can't become great with manufacturing if we don't have people to fill those jobs. Even "great" leaders used slaves he's just making everywhere else greater by giving them back their labor force.

    This has kind of been the plan from the begining. He's trying to set metros to be in the position NYC was when he bought it for cheap.

    COVID blaming cities, riots flamed to get people to move out and not want to be there. It's geo politics. Once it gets shitty enough he will just buy up property and market it to wealthy.

    That's the game. Homies got his hustle. Mainstream or street it's all the same evil.

    ICE doesn't have enough people to intimidate a single blue city, let alone the country. They can't even operate in Los Angeles without the backup of a small number of National Guard and Marines and they're doing that illegal action over the governor's explicit objections.

    ICE are a bunch of cowards, doing safe, comfortable hits in suburbs and on people who are complying with the law. (Immigration hearings and workplaces.)

    When I saw the pictures of the protests in multiple cities, I realized that ICE, law enforcement, and the military don't stand a chance. They might be able to wipe out one protest, maybe even 2 or 3, but they could never get them all, and it's likely they'd be spread so thin, they couldn't significantly impact any of them.

    They have to be looking at the sizes of those protests, and getting worried. And they know there are plenty more at home. All they have is intimidation, the fear of violence, but now they know they are badly outnumbered, and the people know it, too.

    Crackdowns on these cities is a sign of panic, and panic is very dangerous. Stay alert, Patriots.

    I want our Brave ICE Officers to know that REAL Americans are cheering you on every day

    Oh, how subtle. If you're not cheering ICE on, you're not a REAL American. So you should be deported too!

    The best I saw reporting in was a town of 800 in deep red Trump country with a turnout of 400. Wish I could remember the town. Faiy certain it was a rey on Lemmy but may have been bluesky.

    We’re already expecting the spite, personal attacks … even smaller places. My town is still pissed off from the last few weeks

    IMO, the next "No Kings" protest should be "No Kings II" and then the next III and so on. It's such a perfect name that we should keep it.

    Keep sharing this, The Tramp's grandfather was an immigrant from Germany, fleeing mandatory conscription to the army. Due to this, he was banned from the German Empire.

    He's trying to get us mad and become violent so he can declare martial law. He wants his opposition to look more like bad guys to his fan base.

    They'll false-flag or just start killing people. They don't need a reason anymore.

    This whole "don't have violent protests because they'll declare martial law" is a psyop preparing people for martial law and pre-loading it with the assumption that when it does happen (and it will) it will be the fault of the protesters, despite evidence to the contrary.

    Fascism 101 guys. Don't be a sucker.

    We'd like to see their faces too.

    Otherwise how we supposed to know they're not reich-wing political assassins or cartel gang members in disguise? They could fake their ID and warrants as well, better just capture them and work it all out in court, in front of a judge. Which is better than they're offering, or deserve

    Shouldn't he be focused on the G7?

    Trump already left G7 to supposedly "focus on the escalating Israeli-Iran conflict."

    That's not the reason why he left. He's leaving early because he tried to hijack the G7 conference with his usual, personal grievance bullshit and to make the entire conference all about HIM, like he always does. But they weren't having it and they told him to go home and get his f*cking shine box. So now, he's leaving in a huff because they hurt his childish, rodentine feelings.
