Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is ramping up its controversial use of private contractors to track and surveil immigrants, transforming a pilot program into a massive, no-cap operation.
Newly released documents reveal that ICE plans to hire bounty hunters and private investigators to confirm the locations of individuals targeted for deportation.
These contractors will use techniques like photographing residences, staking out workplaces, and monitoring comings and goings, all while earning bonuses for speed and accuracy.
The program, initially capped at $180 million, now guarantees contractors up to $281 million each, signaling ICE’s commitment to outsourcing enforcement.
Critics warn that this expansion places sensitive personal data in the hands of private firms, operating with minimal oversight.
This move is part of a broader trend under the Trump administration, which has increasingly relied on private companies for enforcement operations, from social media surveillance to 24/7 call centers.
The implications for privacy and accountability are staggering as ICE blurs the line between federal enforcement and private enterprise.

The SUPERMAJORITY PLAN TO SAVE THE COUNTRY FROM TRUMP
It will take 292 house and 67 senate democrats to obtain a supermajority vote. The supermajority vote will negate the need for Trump to sign a bill into law. The house and senate can pass a law to release the classified files implicating Trump. They can pass laws to investigate Trump’s international pedophile/terrorist network and their crimes. That’s how we save the country from Trump and his international pedophile/terrorist network.
