Lyons was one of a series of Trump administration speakers at the 2025 Border Security Expo at the Phoenix Convention Center,

Oh yeah, these trade shows for government agencies that hunt down kidnap and imprison people are always disgusting spectacles of greed and callousness, I bet it's a lot like this one for prison wardens from the late 90s

Anyway, here's an archived copy of their agenda, hopefully the people named on it are tried for their crimes against humanity someday - https://web.archive.org/web/20250409175445/https://www.bordersecurityexpo.com/agenda/

Hotel Nuremberg. Can't wait to watch them never check out.

[–] Ironfist79@lemmy.world 63 points 10 months ago (2 children)

But they're not Nazis. Sure, Jan.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 22 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Wait, are telling me its fascist to combine the monopoly on violence granted to the state with the capitalist's endless hunger for revenue growth without regard to human well-being?

[–] 100_kg_90_de_belin@feddit.it 4 points 10 months ago

Who would have thunk?

Shadows of Eichmann.

"Whether they were bank directors or mental cases, the people who were loaded on those trains meant nothing to me. It was really none of my business."

“We need to get better at treating this like a business,” Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons said, explaining he wants to see a deportation process “like (Amazon) Prime, but with human beings.”

I absolutely cannot believe that piece of shit actually admitted that the victims of his fascist fever dream are "human beings." First rule of warfare propaganda is to dehumanize your enemy. He's evil and moronic.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

Capitalism has been dehumanizing the idea of humans for so long, that you don't need to "dehumanize" people anymore to treat them like objects anymore to rationalize this shit anymore.

Soon they'll be tatooing bar codes on them for tracking purposes. When that works, eventually well all have bar codes tattooed, or better yet, mandatory implanted RFID chips, so they can track your every move, and they can hone in on your exact location in seconds.

Dont forget that one of Skum's businesses is Neuralink, which aims to implant chips into people's brains.

...these "people" can't all have security details, right?

[–] Olhonestjim@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Certainly not top tier. Very few make it through that kind of training, by definition. High end specops get hired by billionaires for amazing salaries. Lesser elitists have to settle for lesser qualified security: former soldiers and cops basically.

None see all. None have superpowers. None of them are immortal. All of them are outnumbered.

I just threw up a little reading that

The unholy combination of corporate greed and government sponsored human trafficking is not something I'd wished to have seen in my lifetime

[–] febra@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

And it has a name. To quote someone famous:

"Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power"

Benito Mussolini, the father of fascism

[–] CPMSP@midwest.social 23 points 10 months ago

God-damned ghouls. But I guess that's not entirely true because ghouls at least used to be human.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 23 points 10 months ago (1 children)

People who think like this need to be separated from the rest of society for the rest of their natural lives.

[–] P1nkman@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

I've heard about this large land we can send them to! I heard it was called something like Asstralianana; it's found on the underside of the planet.

[–] GoofSchmoofer@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I seem to remember a story from trumps first term that there was a few hundred children that went missing from their detention centers and ICE didn't have a clue as to where they went.

Did this happen? And was there any follow up?

Because if it's true then ICE has been at the very least turning a blind eye towards human trafficking for years.

Pretty teenage girls may be the most valuable commodity on the planet, and HitlerPig isn't going to let a money-making opportunity like that get by him. He's got Epstein's Little Black Book, he knows who to call to cut a deal.

[–] ssroxnak@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago

Just admit it Todd. You don't see them as human beings.

[–] all4theTomatoes@lemm.ee 17 points 10 months ago

Nobody is illegal. Fuck these nazi fucks. Disgusting degenerates.

[–] Bonesince1997@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

They shouldn't be able to pay for that with our money.

[–] MushuChupacabra@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

They'll be moved to a series of Reduced Diffusion Facilities.

[–] 100_kg_90_de_belin@feddit.it 10 points 10 months ago

Why be cruel for the sake of it when you can make a buck out of it?

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

Deport ICE.

[–] 2ugly2live@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

So it's going to be even worse? These are people, human beings, not a fucking air fryer.

[–] Daggity@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago

So when can I order an ICE Director in a box?

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

ICE is jerks.
