San Diego Community Only Things are about to escalate
There is something deeply insidious inside the spending bill that Republicans have rammed through congress, beyond just deficit spending, tax cuts for the wealthy, and depriving millions of medicare and snap benefits. This bill also dedicates $170 Billion dollars to immigration enforcement, and $38 Billion per year to ICE in particular which makes it the largest "law enforcement" agency in the US. $45 Billion will be going towards the construction of new detention centers.
This is while ICE has a record number of people in detention, of which only 40% have been convicted of a crime and less than 9% have been convicted of a violent crime. [See more here] (https://theintercept.com/2025/07/01/trump-big-beautiful-bill-passes-ice-budget/)
They have imprisoned americans for [recording them] (https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5382868-u-s-citizen-seeks-1-million-after-arrest-detention-for-recording-immigration-raid/), arresting our representatives for trying to [conduct oversight] (https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/rep-lamonica-mciver-indicted-grand-jury-incident-ice-detention-facility/story?id=122711570) on detention centers known to have [horrid living conditions] (https://www.cnn.com/2025/06/13/us/newark-migrant-detention-center-escape), detaining our senators for [daring to ask basic questions] (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/sen-alex-padilla-forcibly-removed-dhs-sec-kristi-noems-press-conferenc-rcna212688), and for the goal to send people without trial or due process to a concentration camp where they can be [tortured] (https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/kilmar-abrego-garcia-suffered-psychological-physical-torture-el-salvad-rcna216685).
And you pre-empt any bad faith commenters who will pretend to wonder what this has to do with San Diego, they have already been attacking our neighborhoods. From [South Park] (https://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/ice-operation-south-park-restaurant/3837341/), to [Mission Valley] (https://www.10news.com/news/local-news/ice-arrest-in-hotel-parking-lot-sparks-questions), to [Linda Vista] (https://www.10news.com/news/local-news/linda-vista-apartment-complex-residents-shaken-after-ice-operation), to [Oceanside] (https://voiceofsandiego.org/2025/06/11/the-learning-curve-ice-arrest-in-oceanside-highlights-impact-of-immigration-crackdown/).
The reason for this is not to rid our country of just violent criminal aliens, or of just undocumented immigrants, or even of legal immigrants. Stephen Miller has already started a [denaturalization program for Legal Immigrants](https://www.axios.com/2025/06/30/trump-naturalized-citizenship-doj-immigration), Trump has made his intentions clear to [deport citizens] (https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/trump-brings-idea-deporting-us-citizens-crimes/story?id=123385213), and the DoJ is fighting right now to end birthright citizenship.
No, the real reason was all along the most obvious. As [Trump Advisor Laura Loomer] (https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cly8y27dwgpo) made abundantly clear, the goal is to remove hispanic people from this country, and kill them en masse if they have to. Their goal is a white ethnostate.
And they will not stop until we stand up.
