When I mentioned above that Pam Bondi and the Trumpenreich wanted to turn the entire US counterterrorism apparatus on anyone who criticized the regime's fascist agenda on social media, I was not exaggerating in the slightest. Over the past week, evidence has emerged that the Department of Homeland Security has been using bullshit administrative orders to subpoena posts and identifying personal information about critics of the ICE Gestapo online.

DHS Orders Tech Giants to Unmask Anti-ICE Accounts

"The agency has fired off hundreds of subpoenas demanding names, email addresses, and phone numbers tied to anti-ICE social media accounts, the New York Times reported Friday.

Unlike traditional warrants, administrative subpoenas do not require approval from a judge before they are issued. Instead of seeking court authorization first, DHS can sign and send the demands directly to tech companies—a power civil liberties advocates say is now being deployed far more aggressively.

Google, Meta, Reddit, and Discord received subpoenas targeting anonymous accounts that posted about ICE activity, the Times reported."

If you've been reading my writing about the fascist Trumpenreich's ethnic cleansing project, you will by now be quite familiar with the regime's use of administrative orders, issued by fake "judges" who actually work for DHS directly and are subject to virtually no relevant oversight; especially from a Trump mass deportation machine that purposely purged (and didn't replace) most of its oversight employees almost immediately after the Swine Emperor returned to office. These orders are literally DHS, saying they authorize DHS, to violate the US constitution, because DHS says so. Furthermore, if you've been reading the NSPM-7 stories in this thread, you will also be familiar with the rampant use of right wing "newspeak" to describe Americans exercising their legally protected civil rights.

"In court filings, department lawyers have argued that the subpoenas are intended to help “investigate threats to its own officers or impediments to their officers,” and to keep ICE agents safe in the field."

Again, please keep in mind that these are lawyers working for a Trumpenreich administration that calls protest an insurrection, filming ICE officers doxing, and both of those things fucking terrorism; often in official (and actionable) government documents and memos. By "impediments" they mean "telling your neighbors not to go outside because ICE is in the area disappearing brown people" and by "threats" they mean accurately calling ICE Gestapo goons nazi slavecatchers on social media.

As ridiculous as that is, this Daily Beast article is *still* doing nasty work to cover up Big Tech's collaboration with a fascist regime targeting the protected speech of Americans. As this Boing Boing post about how this played out for one user makes clear, big tech companies like Meta are only making the barest pretense of protecting users constitutional rights, and practically speaking they are simply turning your data over when DHS says they want it.

https://boingboing.net/2026/02/16/dhs-sent-hundreds-of-subpoenas-to-google-meta-and-reddit-demanding-names-of-people-who-criticize-ice.html

"A neighborhood Facebook page called Montco Community Watch had been doing what neighborhood pages do — posting tips about ICE sightings near specific streets and landmarks in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, in English and Spanish, for its roughly 10,000 followers. In September, DHS served Meta with an administrative subpoena for the names, email addresses, and postal codes of whoever ran it. Meta notified the account owners on October 3 with a form letter: "If we do not receive a copy of documentation that you have filed in court challenging this legal process within ten (10) days, we will respond to the requesting agency with information."

That's the deal DHS is now offering Americans who post about immigration enforcement: find a lawyer and get to federal court in 10 days, or your social media platform will identify you to the government. The New York Times reports that DHS has sent hundreds of these administrative subpoenas to Google, Meta, Reddit, and Discord in recent months, targeting accounts that criticize ICE or note where its agents are operating. Google, Meta, and Reddit have all turned over at least some user data."

Naturally, many will dismiss these stories; either because thus far the regime is only wants to identify social media users, or because in their mind this story is "only" about immigration. The reality however is these quasi-legal maneuverings to expose Gestapo critics are of a piece with Stephen Miller's ravings about criminalizing the left, and the regime's attempts to make antifascism the same as terrorism, legally speaking. In other words: all of this is NSPM-7. Which means the Trumpenreich Gestapo police state isn't "coming" for us all anymore; it's already here.

As far back as 2017, I wrote that what is holding Trump back from becoming the genocidal dictator of his dreams, is a big enough army willing to accomplish his illegal ethnonationalist goals. Even now, as GOP budget funding feeds into Trump's turbo-charged police state, he lacks the ability to occupy multiple cities at once, and as Minneapolis demonstrated, the violent fascist goons necessary to control even the cities he occupies. Furthermore, Gestapo security forces the regime is forced to deploy to quell resistance to the ethnic cleansing project in our streets, are Gestapo forces that aren't actually doing the kidnappings necessary to feed Stephen Miller's insatiable demand for deportation numbers.

As I noted above, one of the ways Trump has tried to bridge the numbers gap between the army he has, and the Schutzstaffel of his dreams, is to recruit local police forces into roving "task force" agents that resemble nothing so much as slavecatchers, through the 287(g) program. This program, a longstanding bipartisan gift to racist sheriff's departments that want to play border cop or concentration camp jailer in their towns, has rapidly expanded under the Trump regime, and now former DHS employees are sounding the alarm that like ICE itself, these "deputized" murderpigs are being tasked with rounding people up for the color of the skin, with virtually no oversight whatsoever.

Ex-watchdogs warn rush to give power to local police in immigration crackdown risks ‘threat to civil rights’

“Taking a problematic enforcement program, that reintroduces models of enforcement that were discontinued because of demonstrable civil rights violations and super-sizing it while removing all internal guardrails, is more than alarming,” said Katerina Herodotou, one of the former CRCL officials who was ousted last year. “It is a threat to civil rights nationwide.”

This is a long article but the short story here is that immediately after taking power, the Trump regime gutted every civil rights and oversight division that would keep track of abuses by pigs operating under these 287(g) agreements. At the same time, DHS mandated a return to a "task force model" of rounding up migrants that had been phased out in 2012 after longtime Trump ally Sheriff Joe Arpaio was found running what was essential a migrant torture camp out of his jail in Arizona.

"Now deputized local officials can interrogate anyone they believe is in the US unlawfully about their immigration status in the course of their regular police work. And they can detain people and turn them over to ICE without the pretext of a criminal arrest, purely on suspicion of violating immigration law despite that being a federal, civil offense."

So, pigs that sign up for this program can behave exactly like Gestapo goons in Minneapolis, and because there's literally nobody assigned to police the police doing this, they definitely will. Now Americans don't have to wait for ICE to come to their town; local police forces can bring the Gestapo to our streets by proxy. Of course adoption of the program is (for now) voluntary, but there sure are a lot of police departments signing up.

"An increasing number of local law enforcement agencies throughout the country have signed 287(g) agreements in the past year to actively cooperate with ICE. In January 2025, fewer than 200 jurisdictions were involved. Now, more than 1,400 local, county and state agencies have signed on to aid DHS in its immigration enforcement work."

How is Trump getting police forces to sign up for a program that makes them Gestapo agents? Sure cops are racist, but they're also lazy. Would you believe by bribing them with money the GOP provided in the Big Fascism Bill?

"Big Beautiful Bill funding is now used for incentivizing local agencies to deputize more of their officers for ICE task forces, offering $7,500 for equipment per new task force officer, $100,000 for new vehicles per agency and full reimbursement for the salary and benefits of each task force officer."

The Trumpenreich has even instituted a bonus program for murderpigs that round up migrants well.

"The Trump administration in October also began offering “monetary performance awards” to local agencies based on the number of undocumented immigrants they identify, including up to $1,000 per officer, per quarter. One CRCL official was shocked to learn of this.

“They have essentially set up a bounty hunter system and are incentivizing local/state law enforcement to detain anyone who appears to be undocumented,” they told the Guardian."

Folks, the Trump regime is turning local police into their white nationalist Gestapo and paying slavecatcher bounties to murderpigs who kidnap migrants. I don't know what it will take for Americans to realize we're already living in the Pork Reich, but it sure does feel like it's time to stop pretending.
