ICE’s Airport Agents

TSA workers remain unpaid during the DHS shutdown, while ICE agents are fully funded to be the demented President’s personal dipshit army and now are deployed to stand around airports doing nothing. To be fair, wasting time at a terminal Cinnabon is better than roaming the streets snatching people up, but these bozos were given so much funding, they can do both all while collecting overtime.

I haven’t flown in 13 years. Some of that is because I’ve been spoiled by Amtrak’s meager offerings. While terrible compared to the rest of the civilized world’s trains, Amtrak boasts no security lines, a decent selection of beers, and if you’re in Boston, you don’t have to go anywhere near Logan Airport.

Improvised Anti-ICE Devices

The cities being besieged by the various DHS militias have responded with clever countermeasures that each subsequent city adopts and adapts to their own needs. In all cases, it comes down to people looking out for their neighbors. The more the regime tries to villainize these acts, the more insane and evil they look. Trump’s approval is already in the shitter, and it’s only been a year. How many more people are going to die for this demented lame duck?

Bovino got demoted, and there have been calls to impeach Kristi Noem over the executions of innocent civilians, but as long as Trump and his vizier Stephen Miller remain, the cruelty will continue, only making the resolve of everyone resisting them even stronger.

Goon School

ICE, CBP, and the rest of the DHS secret police divisions are terrorizing the Twin Cities for protesting their murder of Renee Good, who was out protecting her neighbors these goons were originally targeting. The “Immigration” and “Customs” portion of the ICE acronym were rendered meaningless decades ago, and now the only thing they’re enforcing are the whims of a demented, smelly old man and his team of racist elder abusers.

Todd Lyons has been the acting director of ICE this entire time, but he’s kept a lower profile than the rest of these ghouls over the past year. Unfamiliar with what he looks like, I did some research, and the difference between his official portrait and what he actually looks like is striking.

Don’t become a functionary for a fascist pogrom if you want to keep your youthful looks, kids. Hopefully the accelerated aging it’s causing affects them all by spring.

Any city in a blue state could be targeted next, so stay safe out there and look out for your neighbors

Republican Budget Games

Fascism now has a congressionally approved budget and the Supreme Court’s seal of approval. Happy 4th of July anyway. Jefferson and Adams both died on that date and maybe it’ll happen again.

This budget is a horror show and gives ICE enough funding to send a whole team in ill-fitting tactical gear to rendition me for depicting them as a Kirby-pig. They’re already building the camps and anyone who thinks you’re being hyperbolic for saying this is a blissful idiot. I’m honestly jealous of their ignorance. Knowing the horrors that are coming doesn’t feel great, man.

I’m old and had an NES during my formative years, then moved over to the Sega Genesis instead of the SNES. I had the N64 and Gamecube in college, but references run dry once I moved over to the Playstation.

ICE-Mart

A few years ago, I did a comic called Police-Mart. Now that ICE and the rest of the DHS goon squads are sporting new January 6th-inspired uniforms, I figured it would be a good time to revisit the bit for their new unaccountable and sloppy looks.

Masked goons have been snatching people off the street to meet Stephen Miller’s quotas, and it’s not just happening in red states and rural areas. Many safely blue governors and mayors are not only ignoring it, they’re actively helping to appear “tough on immigration.”

I drew Gavin Newsom because he’s the slimiest and most well-known of these Democratic governors, but I could’ve included Massachusetts’ own Governor Healey, who’s been waiting on “more details” even as her constituents have been targeted since inauguration day.

Hegseth’s Texts

After two month’s of what would be the end of any other administration’s scandals, the one that seems to have stuck is Pete Hegseth communicating war crimes through insecure channels. The war crimes themselves are the same stuff we’ve been doing for a quarter century, but the Department of Defense at least tried to wait a while before letting the media know about it.

Hegseth was grossly unqualified from the get-go, and his boozy stink should be on every senator who voted to confirm him, or anyone in this fascist cabinet. Another thing this leak illustrates is how little Trump is involved in his own administration. These goons are free to do whatever freak shit they want while the demented president golfs or watches TV.

Department of Failed State Travel Advisories

We’re just two months into this administration and the horrors at the border and within continue to escalate. Tourists from close allies are getting sent to the gulags we’ve previously reserved for refugees who are desperate to get here to seek asylum. Residents with green cards or visas are getting arrested, detained, and even deported for their speech. And others are being rounded up without due process and sent to slave labor camps in El Salvador.

This is not a great environment for jokes. My mind keeps going to the fact that all that separates myself from these current victims is my tacky little U.S. passport. Any CBP or ICE thug can take it and instantly render me and anyone they don’t like a stateless individual with no rights.

I don’t have plans (or the budget) for international travel any time soon, but I don’t have to go anywhere for them to claim jurisdiction over me or two thirds of the population. The War on Terror has come home, we’re all the targets, and if you can’t call it fascism, you won’t until you’re the one getting stripped and hosed down in a cage.

The last thing people in Maine* want is someone from Massachusetts telling them what to do. But maybe they’ll follow their New Hampshire neighbors’ lead and stop sending Republicans to Congress.

*Becoming a state as a result of the Missouri Compromise which prolonged slavery, Maine is still rightfully part of Massachusetts, no matter what those potato and toilet paper farmers say.
