Trump admin using threat of ICE to seize state ‘election infrastructure’

US attorney general Pam Bondi has issued a letter to Minnesota demanding they turn over their “voter rolls”. In return, the Trump administration will remove the masked ICE goons who are terrorising the city and murdering its citizens:

As insane as this sounds, it’s true: Pam Bondi sent Minnesota officials a letter today saying ICE would leave the state if Minnesota turns over its voter files to the Trump Administration.

They’re openly using state violence as a bargaining chip to seize election infrastructure. https://t.co/v5L9ByI4eK pic.twitter.com/gRZ6SnU1Zf

Chris Murphy is the US Senator from Connecticut.

Orchestrated chaos

As we reported on 25 January, ICE disarmed a legally armed citizen and then shot him to death. The only appropriate way of describing this is ‘murder’:

2/12

At 00:15 one of the agents begins to pistol whip the man in the head.

The killing was so blatant that even usually compliant commentators like Tim Pool don’t want to have any hand in defending it:

Pool may also be the first prominent commentator to call this what it is:

Yea uh

This is civil war https://t.co/1LPU4go33X

‘ICE’ is the acronym of the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency. The agency supposedly exists to capture and deport unregistered individuals, and yet the man they brutalised and shot to death was an American:

they are really trying to act like this normal man Alex Petti deserve to die like he came there looking to kill ice ages that wasn’t the case. He was trying to protect a woman from further abuse from the department of Homeland Security officers. pic.twitter.com/nOcd5dtdnc

While they shouldn’t be killing people either way, the fact that they’re publicly executing US-born citizens shows there’s a purpose to this chaos beyond the agency’s supposed brief.

Now, that purpose has become clear:

🚨BREAKING: Pam Bondi sent a letter to officials in Minnesota today saying ICE will be removed from the state if they turn over their voter rolls to Trump. This is very obviously an attempt from Trump to cheat in 2026. Letter linked below:

ICE UK threat

It’s crucially important to understand what’s happening in America. Kemi Badenoch has explicitly stated that she will create a British ICE; Reform have threatened to do the same without naming ‘ICE’ specifically.

My message is clear: if you’re here illegally, you will be detained and deported.

Our new Removals Force, modelled on US ICE, will deport 150,000 illegal migrants each year. pic.twitter.com/mjQwuSe77w

ICE was already terrorising communities when Badenoch said the above.

She knew.

The problem is that Trump has taken it even further, and now no one can deny what’s happening.

When the 2029 election rolls around, we cannot let anyone forget that these politicians intend to bring this chaos to the UK.
