According to a Saturday report in the #NYT, concern over #ICE’s brutality has grown to such an extent that many #Minnesota residents, including both documented immigrants and #US citizens, have started wearing passports around their necks to avoid being potentially targeted.
CNN on Friday reported that ICE has been rounding up #refugees living in Minnesota who were allowed to enter the US after undergoing “a rigorous, years-long vetting process,” and sending them to a facility in Texas where they are being prepared for #deportation.

‘ELITE’: The #Palantir App #ICE Uses to Find Neighborhoods to Raid
Palantir is working on a tool for ICE that populates a map with potential #deportation targets, brings up a dossier on each person, and provides a “confidence score” on the person’s current address. ICE is using it to find locations where lots of people it might detain could be. Tool receives peoples’ addresses from Department of Health and Human Services ( #HHS) among other sources
