Feb 1 The Simple Story of How the Government Targets People by Race: ICE Spends $85 Billion on Discrimination

Summary

What Happened?

Congress gave ICE $85 billion in 2025.

That is a lot of money. With this money, ICE hired companies to find immigrants. But the companies are not finding immigrants who broke the law. They are finding immigrants who are Latino.

The Company Problem

Companies like Capgemini and Palantir got contracts to find immigrants. They were paid hundreds of millions of dollars.

Capgemini

Got $365 million to find immigrants' addresses.

Palantir

Got $30 million to build a computer system for ICE.

These companies are not finding criminals. They are finding people based on race. Here is how:

Capgemini gets 50,000 names each month from ICE. Most of these names are Latino. Capgemini uses computers to find where these people live. Then they tell ICE. Then ICE arrests them.

But why are these 50,000 people on the list?

Not because they committed crimes. They are on the list because they are Latino.

Stolen Health Information?

Palantir does something even worse. Palantir uses people's health information to find them.

If Maria is pregnant and goes to a doctor, she gives her address to get help. She thinks it is secret.

But Palantir has a computer that combines health records with other information. So now ICE knows where Maria lives—because of her health records.

Then ICE can go arrest her.

The Supreme Court Said It Is OK

In September 2025, the Supreme Court said ICE CAN arrest people just for being Latino. Before, judges said this was illegal. But the Supreme Court changed the rule.

Now ICE has permission to discriminate based on race. And now ICE has companies to help them do it.

How Money Creates Incentives?

Why do companies help ICE? Because they make money.

Capgemini makes money for finding people.

Palantir makes money for building AI systems.

Private detention companies make money for holding people in prison.

The more immigrants arrested, the more money everyone makes.

It is a system where everyone profits from arrests.

Numbers Show Racial Targeting

ICE arrested 16,000 immigrants with no criminal record in just 7 months. 90% were Latino.

This means:

(1) Not crime-based arrests

(2) Race-based arrests

Some people arrested were U.S. citizens. Andrea Velez is a U.S. citizen. ICE arrested her and held her for 2 days. She had no charges.

What Gets Built?

Congress gave ICE $45 billion to build detention centers. These will hold 165,000 people—just immigrants.

GEO Group and CoreCivic are building these centers. They make money for every person detained.

The Problem

This system targets people based on race. The Constitution says this is illegal. But the Supreme Court allowed it.

Companies profit from racial targeting. ICE has $85 billion to spend. Detention centers are being built.

This is systematic racial discrimination built into government infrastructure.

Why It Matters?

If the government can do this to immigrants, they can do it to anyone.

Once you build a system for racial targeting, it can be used against Black Americans, Muslims, or anyone the government does not like.

The system is designed to continue. Companies have long contracts. Detention centers are permanent. ICE has funding through 2029.

Conclusion

The U.S. government in 2026 is spending $85 billion to:

(1) Pay companies to find people based on race

(2) Build detention centers

(3) Use stolen health information

(4) Create systems where everyone profits from racial arrests

This is racial profiling as official policy. It is a constitutional violation. It is dangerous. And it is happening now.
