    The Pentagon has continued to insist that it is critical that troops do ICE’s scutwork. “This ongoing support, provided in response to a May 9, 2025 request for assistance from the Department of Homeland Security includes case management, transportation and logistical support, and clerical support for the in- and out-processing of illegal aliens at ICE detention facilities,”

    So ICE is going to handle disappearing people, and then the military is going to be in charge of herding them into the concentration camps.

    It’s a proud day for America, hmm?

        It’s a benign way to attach them legally to the effort. The next step of the slippery slope is to have them act defensively to protect ice agents, but then go back to their administrative duties.

      Honestly, I didn’t expect great reading comprehension or other skills necessary for clerical work from people who knowingly choose to be neo-nazis.

        I think that’s why they’re having the National Guard do it. Turns out the ICE employees aren’t even as qualified as a fifth grader.
