ICE: Trump’s Gestapo

By David Starr

The following is a rant.

ICE, or the Insidious Criminals of Excess, is Trump’s Gestapo. It is made up of Nazi slime balls. 

The actions perpetrated by ICE have been savage. Its’ members are savages.

My remarks were sparked by footage of ICE forcibly separating a mother from her child in a hospital. The mother and child were brought there because of a car accident they experienced.

The mother, of course, was visibly upset. She cried out when her child was taken away. This is the epitome of cruel.

ICE members don’t hide their desire of wanting certain people dead. That is, immigrants of color and even U.S. citizens. This has been proven. In the ICE concentration camps, quite a number of people died so far. And we can’t forget about the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. 

And the ICE savages are largely not held accountable. Thanks to the Trump regime. ICE has gotten away with murder.

ICE is also involved in child trafficking. Further, some of them have forced themselves on immigrant females, ages 13 to 17. Some of the latter have gotten pregnant. That’s a justifiable reason for reproductive choice, as well as to arrest and prosecute the perpetrators. 

The methods of ICE have been crude and actually stupid. I also saw footage of ICE members confronting a man at a convenience store. One of them called the man an immigrant because of the way he looked. This was not checked out, however. A stupid assumption.

Even if that man was an immigrant, so what? There’s that U.S. saying about accepting the huddled masses yearning to be free. Freedom has been a casualty of the Trump regime. 

The corporate/neoliberal/Third Way Democrats oppose the regime, but they don’t really do anything about it. That is, they don’t follow through with their opposition. Eventually, they will cave to the Republicans like they have done before. Their strategy is more a failure than a success.

ICE should be abolished but some Democrats don’t support that. They suggest weak reforms. But ICE is a criminal enterprise and must be abolished. And, eventually, it will be.

The Trump regime may not last to 2028. It has committed so many crimes that it’s morally bankrupt. The November 2026 midterms will result in a miserable failure for Republicans. And the regime will be taken to task. That includes ICE.

ICE includes those who perpetrated the January 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol. They were imprisoned but Trump pardoned them. Another criminal act. Trump even wanted to give them monetary reparations.

The immigrants imprisoned in the ICE concentration camps cope with horrendous conditions. The food is bad, thus causing people to be sick. Medical care is pretty much nonexistent. There is abuse to the point where some of them face death.

To conclude this rant, I will say that there will be real change eventually to where both parties will be weak. Their monopoly on power will disappear. In the meantime, the Trump regime and its ICE Gestapo will face consequences. It has to be that way, for the sake of most people and hopefully for full democracy.

  The Russia-Ukraine War: Jeffrey Sachs Knows the Root Causes By David Starr   Political economist Jeffrey Sachs has a deep understanding of the Russia-Ukraine war and is thus knowledgeable on the root causes of the conflict. Sachs, however, has pretty much gone against the current of the major support for Ukraine and the condemning of Russia’s invasion as an act of aggression.    Sachs’s recent speech at the European Parliament  lays out in detail  the how’s and why’s of the conflict. There is an important factor some Ukraine supporters have ignored. And that’s the role of the U.S./NATO alliance.   Over the decades, U.S. leaders and their supporters have exercised a superiority complex when it comes to relating to other nations in the world. Russia has been no exception. One can go back to the 1890s, for example, and see the Old United States display overt racism in its  foreign policy as it expanded  across the world. This before there was ...

  The Moral Bankruptcy of the Anti-Defamation League     By David Starr   On March 03, 2025 Anti-Defamation League (ADL) CEO Jonathan Greenblatt made a  speech  for the State of Hate / Never Is Now 2025 campaign. It was specifically a press release. In it, Greenblatt conjures up the same old stereotypes about how pro-Palestinian supporters are agents of Hamas, as well as terrorists. And he, like always with hardline Israeli supporters, whipped out the anti-Semitic card for practically any criticism made by people who oppose Israel’s attempted genocide and ethnic cleansing military campaigns.   Greenblatt said that “after months of allowing the harassment, intimidation, and even violence against Jewish students and faculty, many university presidents, certainly not all, but many have discovered the virtues of actually enforcing their policies on encampments and harassment.”   True, there is a reemergence of anti-Semitism but it’s not from Pale...

  The Ibrahim Traore Phenomenon   By David Starr   Going back decades up to now, individuals have rebelled against and condemned the current capitalist world order; as well as implementing real change contrary to that order.  Karl Marx ,  Vladimir Lenin ,  Fidel Castro ,  Che Guevara ,  Patrice Lumumuba ,  Thomas Sankara ,  Rosa Luxemburg  and a host other individuals, both male and female, are major examples of those who have challenged the world order and to change it.    It’s not to say that they were pure as the driven snow, but they were sincerely concerned with the countries they lived in and most of the people in those countries in regards to looking directly at the causes of the poverty and violence many faced, the Global South being the prime example.   Recently, there is an individual who has stood out as a major force to combat poverty and the violence of colonialism and imperialism, the West being the main...
