The Whipple Federal Building has become both a staging ground for immigration agents and a hub for demonstrations against the crackdown in the Twin Cities.

Notice how it is local cops doing ICE’s bidding

    Probably because they’d have nothing to do with all the real estate and resources if they took it for themselves?

    That’s like asking why the managers don’t just kill all the workers…who would do the work lol

      Simple. They can claim all the houses and sell the surplus for liquidity. Alternatively, they can rent out the space for visitors. This means they can all become millionaires within the week.

        Sell them to who? Who will want to live somewhere the cops just slaughtered everyone lol

        Being a millionaire means nothing if your currency turns into Zimbabwe money and it costs 50million dollars to buy a burger

        You are quite literally not thinking this through at all

          I think you underestimate how dumb the typical American is. Many will happily buy land in a city that got wiped out by their cops.

              Do you know how easy it is to scam Americans out of their hard earned money? It’s very easy, because they’re very gullible. And having actual real estate to sell makes it even easier.
