As far as I can tell there is actually a big surge right now. They just stopped making idiotic trolly social media posts about it, and people are bored of it so the media is reporting on it less.
In my area (Northern California) this is by far the highest level of ICE activity we’ve seen so far.
Let’s all try to bring more attention to this. We need more people protesting, monitoring/filming ICE, basically creating as much attention and friction as possible.
In most areas, there are activists organizing to track ICE activity so I highly recommend volunteering with them. In my area NorCal Resist is the most prominent organization doing this work but if you’re elsewhere I am sure you could find a similar group with a web search.
There has been a noticeable amount of ICE all over here as well. The problem is that almost all of our Latino population is from Puerto Rico. So they have been harassing people on the street, kicking in doors, and beating people up, but making few arrests, and almost no sustained charges. This is a problem for them because their good standing clause to not pay back their bonuses is based on getting people actually deported. So the ICE agents here are crying about how they might end up bankrupt because they spent those bonuses, and can’t afford to pay them back.
Oh, this wasn’t your fault, for some reason my profile had your comment under a different comment where this would make no sense. Gonna delete that. Sorry about that.

Kinda hilarious if it wasn’t for the innocent victims of their violence.

Seeing ICE fascists getting fucked and losing out on their bonus is funny to me. Maybe it wasn’t clear but I was specifically talking about that part.
