  • MigrantInsider - How the Pentagon is Quietly Building Trump’s Concentration Camps

    The genocide has received funding.

    Abridged

    A massive Navy contract vehicle, once valued at $10 billion, has ballooned to a staggering $55 billion ceiling to expedite President Donald Trump’s “mass deportation” agenda.

    This $45 billion increase, published just weeks ago, converts the U.S. into a “geographic region” for expeditionary military-style detention. It signals a massive, long-term escalation in the government’s capacity to pay for detention and deportation logistics. In the world of federal contracting, it is the difference between a temporary surge and a permanent infrastructure.

    Task orders allow DHS to bypass the months-long public bidding process for every new facility. When the contract says task orders are issued when “specific dates and locations are identified,” it means the infrastructure is currently a “ghost” network that can be materialized anywhere in the U.S. the moment a site is picked.

    MY TAKE: If Congress does nothing, DHS will continue to thrive. With three more years pre-funded, plus a U.S. Navy as a benefactor, Secretary Kristi Noem–or any potential successor–has the legal and financial runway to keep the business of creating ICE concentration camps overnight in American communities running long after any news cycle fades.

    While Kennedy predicts a “long, long shutdown” for DHS, this contract vehicle suggests the department has already secured the “ceiling” it needs to operate at a massive scale regardless of the immediate budget battles in the House.







  • It seems very unclear.

    A promise has been made. Neither Russia nor Indian industry is aware of the details. The promise seems to contain built-in loopholes. The intent seems to be to appease Trump and diversify import sources to include Venezuela.

    I would guess India will prefer Venezuelan oil so far as capacity allows, and Saudi oil so far as pricing allows.

    I think the key kink in the deal is Nayara which must continue sourcing from Russia since it’s already sanctioned, and if it gets a key price advantage over the other refineries then “irreplaceable” would start to mean “cheapest”?

    This sits alongside a promise for India to import half a trillion of imports from the US so it all stinks of giving Trump an announceable without a real enforcement mechanism.

    I would guess this is a nothing burger. Buy stocks in Nayara.
