Trumps big new beautiful bill contains many more tens of billions for this illegal alien lock up and other ICE activities. This is why Trump wanted it so bad.
This lockup idea will greatly encourage self deportation. As in sell off your assets and scoot back to to your homeland, with thousands of dollars in your pockets. There even are $1000 and free plane ticket home incentives, for self deportation via using the ICE phone app.
Who is going to do all the grunt work they were doing?
Great plan. And even better if it causes some liberal heads to explode.
Here’s the thing about large hierarchical organizations. There will always be someone who is out of power or who never had power somewhere down in the bowels of the company who will stymie the implementation of the administrations’ plans. In this case, department managers might implement procedures that are in the realm of their power, but which effectively stop the President from succeeding. Thus, they allow bond hearings or multiple appeals of a judge’s deportation ruling. They know the process and they know how to create an endless and expensive cycle that stops any deportations.
Any place I worked six months, I could have provided a layoff list to the CEO of people who were actively or passively blocking the implementation of his policies. You’d think he should be able to see the members on the list from above, but the view from above is smiling, compliant faces. From below those same faces are all malevolent grins and nasty curses. I worked in a place where the CEO was making a sincere attempt to prevent bankruptcy. I found a lower-level manager who was working hard to make it fail. I asked him why, expecting a denial. Instead, he launched into an angry tirade about how the CEO had taken credit for something he had done and gotten his chance at the top by stealing credit. I said, okay, but if he fails, you’ll get laid off with everyone else. That didn’t register. It didn’t matter. His need for vengeance was job wise, suicidal. The CEO failed and the company laid us all off.
That’s not to say the miscreant manager was the only cause. One manager refused to give up his people because he’d lose his coveted manager’s parking spot. The fact he’d lose it anyway didn’t seem to matter. People blocking the top guy do so for a legion of reasons.
Mostly the only way to turn these people around is for a sufficiently high-ranking person to pay a personal visit and emphasize that they aren’t invisible and action will be taken if the attitude doesn’t change.
