Rep. Walkinshaw leaving today’s ICE hearing: “All of this comes from Stephen Miller’s sick, twisted, deranged Great Replacement Theory.” He says when Dems have the majority they will subpoena Miller to testify: “If he doesn’t he will end up in prison for contempt.” @pabloreports.bsky.social

Remember, the shitty jobs numbers you see from this administration are their fake numbers. The real numbers are much, much worse.

Small business owners represent the American Dream. But the fear and uncertainty caused by Operation Metro Surge has been a crushing blow to business.
We need an end to this campaign of retribution and we need to reopen Minnesota for business.

I will not support any funding deal that puts money in the hands of Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, and this violent agency. Defund and abolish ICE now.

Listen to this. Not a penny more for this. Abolish and prosecute anyone who had anything to do with it.

I’ve seen a lot of questions on these lines, and the quick answer is that once the federal government purchases the property (including the land the warehouse sits on), local governments cannot regulate them or tax them. They are now federal properties and so the Supremacy Clause applies.
Aren't warehouses usually zoned as 'Commercial/Industrial' properties?
So, then why are they being used as 'Residential'!?
Am I wrong?

ICE is likely paying a premium to get the deal through quickly. E.g., in Hamburg, PA, the warehouse was purchased in 2024 for $57.5 million and sold to ICE for $87 million.
The real profit will come with the private prison companies and contractors hired to refurbish and staff these facilities.

Crucially, many local governments are furious with ICE over these purchases, because they were not consulted or even told. Because they are federal property now, it's taking a commercial property off the tax rolls while likely imposing dramatic additional infrastructure costs.

Purchasing and converting these warehouse detention camps will cost the U.S. government billions of dollars. So far ICE has purchased at least half a dozen warehouses at a cost of $70-$110 million each. It'll cost billions more to refit them into detention camps, and hire staff.

The closest modern historical parallel is the detention camp at Guantanamo Bay for intercepted Cubans and Haitians during the HW Bush and Clinton administrations, where at maximum capacity roughly 12,000 migrants were detained. But those migrants were never in the physical US.
