Trump ROBBING Detainees With New $5,000 Fine

[GoLeft TV]

The Trump administration is proposing a new five thousand dollar apprehension fee for anyone detained by ICE, including people who are in the United States legally and following every rule of the immigration process. This would be the first time the government has ever charged people simply for being detained, and it would allow ICE to halt a person’s case until the fee is paid, which raises serious questions about due process, equal access and whether DHS even has the authority to create a payment tied to detention itself. Since many who would be affected are families, workers and students who entered legally and trusted the system, the policy could create a two tier process where only those with money can move forward. Critics say it looks like a way to compensate for the administration’s overspending, especially with Ice detaining hundreds of thousands of people, including many with no criminal record.

1. It's not about the money. It's an excuse to keep them in prison.

The pressure about due process and these unlawful imprisonments were getting hard to handle, apparently. So invent a bogus $5000 fine. If they can't pay it, then there's a perfect reason to keep them locked up, no process required.

3. The return of Indentured Servitude

Imagine how long it'll take to pay back $5000...when you're just being paid below the minimum wage.

4. "EVIL" is too tame a word...

... to describe what soulless monsters these people really are. And they will keep escalating the outrages beyond endurance until the people finally say, ENOUGH! and fight back. The courts are infested with Trump's corrupt judges that find against the legitimate complaints of ordinary folks who have been victimized by this administration, or its sycophantic followers. With no other recourse, they will rise up, giving Trump all the excuse he needs – if he really needed any excuse at all – to impose martial law, and crush dissent in any form.
What malignant filth like Trump and his followers don't understand, is that THEY. WILL. LOSE. BIG time. And the people's vengeance will be swift and severe.
The Republican Party has metastasized into a terrorist organization, and deserves to be outlawed and flushed down history's toilet, along with the Nazis, and fascists like the Heritage Foundation. And it can't happen soon enough.
America will never be the same after this. It will be better.

5. They are going to have a lot of cells to fill

once all the prison are built. There is a lot of taxpayer money on the table and they want it all. The more prisons, the more cells, the more detainees, the more they can charge the government. If they can make it so people can't get out of detention, then the payola will be guaranteed to continue indefinitely. Like I've been saying from the start, it's all about the corruption...everything.
