ICE Hire Private Surveillance to Monitor Activists. Why?

ICE, short for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the group responsible for the controversial family separation policy, is at it again.

Apparently, ICE hired private surveillance firms to monitor activists and immigrants.

So if you've spoken out against family separation, against Trump's wall, and policy on immigration, you might be on their list, they might even be monitoring your social media!

Donald Trump and ICE are turning America into a Surveillance State.

This is how things go really badly in authoritarian regimes, is it about to go badly here
