ICE ‘Detention Reengineering’ Plan
Will Expand Capacity, Speed Deportation

An internal Immigration and Customs Enforcement memo proposes a sweeping “detention reengineering” initiative aimed at fixing the system’s most chronic failures — overcrowded facilities, slow transfers, and deportation backlogs that allow criminal aliens to cycle repeatedly through American communities. The proposal, backed by frontline ICE personnel and major law enforcement groups, would expand detention capacity, streamline processing, and accelerate removals of offenders who currently linger in local jails for weeks or walk free due to lack of space. The February 13 memo, marked “For Official Use Only” and published on the New Hampshire governor’s website, states that the initiative is needed to address the agency’s orders

Good news. It has been going WAY, WAY too slowly. But all this detention seems to assume VERY slow flow thru. We need to flow them thru much more rapidly. To deport 10 million illegals who entered under Biden (and there are probably twice that many in the country), if we deported 1,000 per week would take 10,000 weeks, which works out to 192 years. If we want to deport them all during the next three remaining years of Trump's term, that is about 1000 days available. This means we must deport 10,000 illegals EVERY SINGLE DAY for the next three years to get out the ones that Joe let in. This sounds daunting, until you look at 'parallel processing'. We are barely scratching the surface with deportations. Self deportations have been claimed to accounted for 1 or 2 million exits. If true, this is FAR more than actual deportations. The goal needs to be 10,000 per day. Let's see what 'parallel processing' can do. If a flight has 250 deportees, that is going to require 40 flights per day to get to 10,000 per day. If we could select 40 cities and have one flight per day from each city, with 250 deportees, that would get us our 10,000 per day. This seems like a manageable goal. It will take a MASSIVE multi city effort to make this work. More detention is useful, but the deportees shouldn't be detained more than a day or two. To collect 250 per day in a city, we will need probably at least 250 agents in each of those 40 cities, each agent averaging catching one per day. This is doable with a lot of effort, but will require much more man power (even woman power) than we have now. So far the penny packet ICE efforts haven't been anywhere close to what is needed.

Final orders of deportation should bring IMMEDIATE deportation. Not this politically correct warehousing. Too much time. Too much expense. We haven't gone through this rigamarole in the past. Lock up the recalcitrant Dems and send these illegals home.

If the NAZIs could manage to move 6-10 million people to their horrendous death camps while fighting a war, using steam trains, stubby pencils, typewriters and paper, I would think with our modern technology we could easily move the gazillion illegals out of the country. Round em up and head em out !

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers discovered more than $6.8 million worth of cocaine hidden inside a Valentine’s rose shipment at the Texas-Mexico border. The massive drug bust at Laredo’s World Trade Bridge on February 10 yielded approximately 516 pounds of cocaine concealed among fresh flowers. Officials reported the haul contained enough cocaine for roughly 190,000 lethal doses. A CBP officer flagged the tractor-trailer for secondary inspection after it arrived at the crossing. The driver had declared the cargo as roses and fresh flowers. Officers deployed a canine team and non-intrusive imaging technology during their search. They discovered 211 packages of alleged cocaine tucked within the floral shipment.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio is making it clear to the world’s migrants that they do not have a right to immigrate to the United States. During a press conference in Budapest, Hungary, alongside Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, Rubio said that the U.S. under the Trump administration is singularly focused on what benefits and does not benefit the national interest. Part of that, Rubio said, is ensuring that foreign nationals are aware that they do not have a right to a visa in the U.S. “My job at the State Department is, if I identify someone who I believe — someone who is a visitor, a guest in the United States —

The United States once regularly resettled migrants from the most corrupt nations in the world across American communities, a new analysis details. Last year, though, President Donald Trump halted much of this immigration via executive orders. The analysis, published by the Center for Immigration Studies, looked at countries whose nationals Trump’s executive orders have either entirely or partially banned from immigrating to the United States. In particular, the analysis highlights corruption levels on a nation-by-nation basis, showing that in Fiscal Year 2024, and likely prior years, the U.S. issued visas to tens of thousands of foreign nationals from the most corrupt countries in the world. South Sudan, for example, is ranked as

WASHINGTON — Far-left New York City Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is being widely mocked for erroneously claiming that Venezuela is “below the equator” while trying to show off her foreign-policy chops in Germany. Venezuela sits just above the equator, but that didn’t stop the Democratic socialist — who majored in international relations at Boston University — from making the embarrassing gaffe while speaking at a Technical University of Berlin panel Sunday. “[Nicolas] Maduro canceled elections. He was an anti-democratic leader,” Ocasio-Cortez said, describing the Venezuela elections that took place under the Maduro regime and which many international organizations have said were rigged. “That doesn’t mean that we can kidnap a head of state

Last year's deadly midair collision at Reagan National Airport, which killed all 67 people aboard an American Airlines plane and a U.S. Army helicopter, was a wake-up call that many on the left refused to hear. President Donald Trump, however, understood the problem and sought to fix it. He pointed directly at the Barack Obama and Joe Biden DEI policies that prioritized checkbox diversity over actual competence in air traffic control. He was absolutely right. Air traffic control whistleblowers confirmed that the FAA's obsession with Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion initiatives has led to a shortage of qualified personnel. These disastrous policies began under Obama, were reversed during Trump’s first term, and then

Abigail Spanberger (D., Va.) who tried to look normal by grilling a substance some claim was intended to represent "beef." The governor posted a photo of herself on X along with the caption "Order up!" and a steak emoji. Many remarked upon the hideous appearance of the alleged meat, as well as the deranged grin on Spanberger's face—the manic visage of an overmedicated wine mom about to mow down a rival's goldendoodle with her luxury SUV.

This one spells out what Boasberg expects the administration to do to remedy the situation. To review that December ruling, Boasberg, after determining that he has jurisdiction over the matter, ordered the administration to facilitate the plaintiffs' return to the U.S. to provide them "a meaningful opportunity" to contest their designation as TdA members and the proclamation’s validity.

The reference to the weather was, in fact, a reference to Mamdani’s massive mishandling of Winter Storm Fern.

DENVER — A bill introduced into the Colorado State Senate last week would make Colorado the first state in the U.S. to fully decriminalize prostitution if it became law. Senate Bill 26-097 would require the entire state to decriminalize “commercial sexual activity among consenting adults,” both for people who buy sex and who would sell it. This would be unique in the U.S., as the only other states with any form of legal prostitution, Maine and Nevada, still have certain rules around it. In Nevada, for instance, prostitution is only legal within licensed houses of prostitution, or brothels, and some
