Rules (2024-08-30)
- This is an English-language community. Comments should be in English. Posts can link to non-English news sources when providing a full-text translation in the post description. Automated translations are fine, as long as they don't overly distort the content.
- No links to misinformation or commercial advertising. When you post outdated/historic articles, add the year of publication to the post title. Infographics must include a source and a year of creation; if possible, also provide a link to the source.
- Be kind to each other, and argue in good faith. Don't post direct insults nor disrespectful and condescending comments. Don't troll nor incite hatred. Don't look for novel argumentation strategies at Wikipedia's List of fallacies.
- No bigotry, sexism, racism, antisemitism, islamophobia, dehumanization of minorities, or glorification of National Socialism. We follow German law; don't question the statehood of Israel.
- Be the signal, not the noise: Strive to post insightful comments. Add "/s" when you're being sarcastic (and don't use it to break rule no. 3).
- If you link to paywalled information, please provide also a link to a freely available archived version. Alternatively, try to find a different source.
- Light-hearted content, memes, and posts about your European everyday belong in other communities.
- Don't evade bans. If we notice ban evasion, that will result in a permanent ban for all the accounts we can associate with you.
- No posts linking to speculative reporting about ongoing events with unclear backgrounds. Please wait at least 12 hours. (E.g., do not post breathless reporting on an ongoing terror attack.)
- Always provide context with posts: Don't post uncontextualized images or videos, and don't start discussions without giving some context first.
(This list may get expanded as necessary.)

Ban lengths, etc.
We will use some leeway to decide whether to remove a comment.
If need be, there are also bans: 3 days for lighter offenses, 7 or 14 days for bigger offenses, and permanent bans for people who don't show any willingness to participate productively. If we think the ban reason is obvious, we may not specifically write to you.
If you want to protest a removal or ban, feel free to write privately to the admin that applied the rule (check modlog first to find who was it.)

They can just not grant them work visas and then when they're caught "working", lock them in a detention centre until they die of "natural causes".
To some country they've never been to.
Send them to Russia, Putin them to work.
These dickheads love to cosplay, I think they'll love it

The Italian police wont allow that because of pressure from the US and Meloni who likes Trump.
Yep. And Italy has a shit load of fascist sympathizers, especially in the north. If ice shows up, nothing would happen.

So an agency whose self described purpose is to remove unwanted people from the country will go to a place they are not wanted?
That tracks.
The governor of Lombardy region, Attilio Fontana, sought to calm the situation, suggesting that ICE agents would be deployed in Italy to protect US Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
Well now hold on a second. ICE is going to be protecting Vance and Rubio, and ICE is also utterly incompetent, so maybe let's see how this plays out
Well well, some very lucky ICE agents moving up in the world - first they were just Gestapo but now they're graduating to full SS.
SS is the Secret Service right, right?
Yes, but also no. I think @pulsewidth is being cheeky as both uses of the abbreviation apply.
I hear there are a lot of Luigis there.
Fuck, I hope they use their phones.
The US is entitled to bring their own security forces, as fucking dumb as it is.
Neither ICE, nor CBP are security forces. Neither would be there operating in their official role. This is not USSS, or FBI, or even military. These are two agencies whose job it is supposed to be to deal with customs and immigration issues within the confines of the US.
Italy really should tell them to get fucked.
I suppose they're afraid their athletes might run away, something North Korea is usually accused of.
In 1936 the US sent a black man to the nazi Olympics, who promptly won gold and made a fool of Hitler. In 2026, the US sends nazis to the Olympics to⦠what, make a fool of the US?
And in 2028, the US expects us all to show up at their own nazi Olympics?
Speaking as an American, I hope the rest of the world boycotts all events taking place here until we get our shit together
This is gonna suck for the athletes. Olympic games being every 4 years (winter doesn't really count if you're track and field and summer doesn't really count if you're a cross country skier) and it's the most prestigious event out there for most disciplines (not football I guess), so your sponsorship deals are very dependent on it. I don't think many athletes out there are in a position to say no when they get a shot at the olympics, even if it's their 3rd time or something.

This stuff have to end, this just a sport event and anyy type of ICE is not ok.
Seriously we all saw what happened in 94. /S
God damn it, Tonya!
Ok seriously, why does immigration and customs enforcement have any security role dealing with the president and vice president? They are not law enforcement, they are fancy border guards.
The answer of course is that these fuckers took a smaller, already aggressive force and funded it to the fucking moon. Itβs their secret police now, clearly after MPLS itβs obvious.
really is the modern ~~gestapo~~ sa.
Edit- corrected. Meant it more in the colloquial sense but Iβm always in favor of accuracy.
The Gestapo was a well trained, plain-clothes force, specialized on covert operations and domestic terror tactics. ICE is a (badly) uniformed, badly trained band of street brawlers. So they are more like the SA - and, as the SA was, are probably going to be thrown under the bus no matter which direction things go.

Just arrest them on the spot, stuff them into vehicles and whisk them away to secret facilities without due process.
Simple. And Meal Team 6 would understand why it was necessary, and so would cooperate completely. /s
ICE agents would be deployed in Italy to protect US Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
Is the US Secret Service not good enough any more?
Maybe because ICE is more beholden to the party than the Secret Sevice is
They only trust their very own goons.

Don't get in our country, ICE!
I don' fucking want them here, they can go fuck themselves, i hope that our government do something and if they don't, we should get mad
The only place where ICE should be in Italy, is in piazzale Loreto, upside down.
Wait - I've seen all these headlines today and wondered why we're talking about the Olympics... But it didn't occur to me that the US has the summer Olympics in 2 years, definitely not winter. I can't even imagine what stupidity is being used to justify sending ICE to any other country.

prompting Italian anger
WTF?
Why would Italy be pissed about this ?
You deny them entry, the end. Come on, this is not that hard.
Does Italy have the same agreement with the US like Sweden does where, at least soldiers, are allowed to commit unlimited crimes in their country because the US "promise to totally" charge them back home? Then letting ICE in is asking for trouble.
MAGA you incompetent fuckwits.
suggesting that ICE agents would be deployed in Italy to protect US Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
That's a big fucking problem, right there. Is the Secret Service not enough? Gotta have the low-EQ/IQ goon squad there too?

Luigis, you guys know what to do right? Pretend you're putting clothes on a wire to dry!Β
Team America, World Gestapo.
Maybe they should make a new Olympic game that is the rest of the world vs americas ice. The fans could join too.
Bruh, I can't wait for them to shoot somebody and start an international incident. I trust that they'll be that incompetent.
Thats how USA got in WW2, but with submarine.
Just because the US says something doesn't make it true. ICE has fuck all authority in Italy, same as any US law or regime
