The Trump administration is planning a massive propaganda campaign aimed at recruiting thousands of new federal immigration enforcement officers to carry out its mass deportation agenda.

The Washington Post reported on Wednesday that it had obtained internal documents revealing that US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is planning to spend $100 million over the next year on what the agency describes as a “wartime recruitment” drive.

The propaganda blitz will be targeted at highly specific demographics, including “people who have attended UFC fights, listened to patriotic podcasts, or shown an interest in guns and tactical gear,” according to the Post.

      Exactly. Why risk lives escalating to violent resistance when the opposition is doing such a great job tearing themselves apart?

      Republicans officials are leaving the party every day, Trump has backed off the National Guard, the Epstein files debacle is only growing in strength, entrenched party seats are flipping every time they’re up for election…why interrupt your enemy when they’re in the middle of making a mistake?

      Let them fight it out. Whoever’s left at the end will be weaker and easier to defeat.
