    > warheads

    Until there is a credible source, please stop saying this.

    The only thing in the actual report says “small arms, ordnance, and ordnance accessories”… I, tell you hwut.

    Definitely stockpiling weapons so the Trump Gestapo can seize major (probably Democrat-run) cities.

  3. At this point ICE could take out NATO.  It’s meant to be a pro-Trump military force to protect him from a military coup when he doesn’t give up power.  

  4. All prep for midterms and prep a third term which he won’t make it to but their claws will be dug in deep.

  5. I want people to truly understand this headline. This is the American congress fearing the American President is accumulating weapons banned from war by international law in order to launch attacks on US cities and US citizens.

    That’s where the judgment of Republicans has brought us in just ten months.

    This appears to be the direct link. It’s open to some interpretation. What will this modest budget actually buy?

    Either it’s to use on us (most likely scenario), or it’s a shell game where all the money and weapons go magically unaccounted for and nobody knows where they went.

    OK so I looked into this and this is mostly false/disinfo. ICE was procured $61,000 roughly for items that fall under Missile Warheads and Chemical weapons. Firstly, there is no such thing as a missile that costs $61,000 (that I am aware of). Secondly, other items can fall under this category, like flashbangs, breach charges, and other explosive ordinance which is most likely what this money was used for. They are not buying missiles. The award is for “distraction devices” so I’m assuming flashbangs. You can find the details of the reward here:

  9. Bro, that is a FUCKED up headline, what?!

    Why on EARTH does a law enforcement agency need “warheads and chemical weapons” for civil immigration enforcement?

    What the fuck?

  10. Weird-Independence79 on

    Why does ICE need warheads and chemical weapons to arrest landscapers and construction workers? This truly is another example of trump dismantling our democracy

  11. Meanwhile, equipment keeps disappearing from U.S. military facilities:

    Fall 2024 – early 2025:  Night vision goggles, laser rangefinders, and advanced thermal optics stolen from[ least four Tennessee National Guard](https://www.wired.com/story/mysterious-crime-spree-targeted-national-guard-equipment-stashes/) facilities

    January 2025: 12,000 rounds of ammunition missing from [Camp Bonneville](https://www.columbian.com/news/2025/jul/25/12000-rounds-of-ammo-stolen-from-fbi-storage-at-camp-bonneville-raising-concerns-from-neighbors/), a former Army training ground now used by the FBI for LE training

    Also this year: T[hree Humvees](https://www.cbsnews.com/losangeles/news/3-humvees-stolen-from-tustin-army-reserve-center/) and other military gear stolen from an Army Reserve center in Tustin, California; [raided storage containers](https://www.kkco11news.com/2025/04/11/3000-worth-items-stolen-grand-junction-national-guard-armory/) at a Colorado National Guard facility; and alleged attempt to [steal body armor and communications gear](https://apnews.com/article/nazi-white-supremacist-guns-fbi-washington-d75d09d52afbff49b7876643d54bf752) from a US Army Ranger site in Washington

  12. Once missiles start flying, it’s on. There’s simply more of us than there are of them, and like the right, we have long exercised our 2nd amendment as well.

    I’m ready to fight the tyranny, but I certainly hope it doesn’t come to that.

  13. Why are we waiting for the government to self govern!? When are we gonna wake up and open our eyes!?

  14. And this is why Democrats need to campaign on abolishing ICE. This isn’t a fringe issue anymore.

  15. Keep in mind these two things, which are not happening separately or in a vacuum. First, ICE – which doesn’t report up through any civil service branch like the police, is becoming more and more powerful than most countries in the world. Second, the same federal government is trying to get firearms owners profiled and into a database, and they’re very close to it. These two things are happening in lock step. The next step will be the federal government saying we have our own army to protect you and you don’t need your weapons anymore. The next step after that is them forcefully taking them away from those that didn’t fall for that gimmick. This is how history has unfolded countless times and it’s becoming more and more clear that’s the game now. Especially considering the firepower this personal army is acquiring.

  16. I’m sorry… WARHEADS?!?!

    Word is the military hates Hegseth and T. Using any of these weapons would be the moment I believe the brass steps in and says enough is enough.

  17. None of these traitors are even trained to use them. They take the $50,000 signing bonus you pay in taxes and then the next week are on your street with chemical weapons and warheads.

    At least the military spends our tax dollars training troops to use these before handing them to soliders. ICE just pockets the money and puts them on our streets.

  18. Civil war 2: Electric Bugaloo?

    In all seriousness, I feel for my friends and family that live in USA.

    I just hope most of it doesn’t spill up the border.

  19. ICE is now a terrorist org, stockpiling chemical weapons and warheads to use on Americans should cost MAGA the midterms and/or have Trump and Vance impeached

    If you haven’t already, I suggest taking a basic firearm class, like a beginners pistol course, just to gain at least some experience with a firearm.

    Just like we train ourselves physically by exercising, or mentally by reading and utilizing critically thinking, learning some firearm basics is a useful skill to have in general. As with anything, learning new skills/experience is never a bad thing, even if you never use them or a firearm again in your life. 

    As always, non violence will continue to be the way forward.

    All that said, if you don’t want to/are uncomfortable with firearms, then take a ‘Stop the Bleed’ class or some other class that gives you additional survival skills that can save you or someone else’s life. Or become an expert on particular laws so you can speak up with certainty and know your rights. Build up yourself and your community. Stand up for vital institutions. Every little bit counts.

    The more informed and well rounded we are, the harder it will be to oppress us. United we stand.

  21. The 700% increase in purchases of military ordnance is just to equip the 1000% increase in hiring of ICE stormtroopers.

    Nothing to see here.

    Gosh, it’s almost like they’re arming themselves for a civil war or something…

    This was the Gestapo Methods:
    • Surveillance: Used extensive networks of informants and secret agents to identify opponents of the Nazi regime.
    • Arbitrary Arrests: Could detain anyone without evidence, warrant, or trial.
    • Interrogation & Torture: Extracted confessions and names through brutal physical and psychological methods.
    • Deportation: Sent political prisoners, Jews, and others directly to concentration camps.
    • Fear & Control: Relied on creating a climate of fear — neighbors denouncing each other kept society obedient.

    The majority of white people who voted on November 5th, 2024: ‘We love this. Let’s be clear: We care about the cruelty inflicted on LGBTQ individuals and non-white people. So go ahead with your protests, because when it really mattered, we showed up on November 5th, and you didn’t. It’s a long, beautiful journey, and we’re only nine months into this, and there are still at least three more years ahead.’

    *Among those who voted, 60% of white men and 53% of white women supported a candidate who is a racist, fascist, sexist pedophile.*

    Shaking my head.

    I don’t know that I can trust the daily beast as a news organization to report accurate information

  26. Electrical_Iron_1161 on

    Why the hell does ice need warheads and chemical weapons? That’s definitely the definition of useless spending

  27. Rattus_NorvegicUwUs on

    We are not that far away from Syrian barrel bombs and using chemical weapons on civilians.

    States need to reply in kind. Learn how to fly a FPV drone and tell your city to buy them for “dual use purposes”. It can inspect power lines and disassemble fascists in a pinch.

    They will attack blue states if they think they can get away with it.
