In October, a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer grew frustrated by a “kid” tailing his unmarked Ford Explorer on a motorized bicycle. It was 3:30 p.m. in Northeast Portland.

As the two approached Northeast 82nd Avenue, the ICE officer opened the center console and pulled out his service weapon, he later told police. He told a 911 dispatcher to send local officers or else he would take matters into his own hands.

“I need someone here now, or else I’m going to have to shoot this kid,” said *Israel D. Hernandez,* according to a recording of his emergency call exclusively obtained by OPB

As you read @reichlinmelnick.bsky.social's piece on how Trump is fast-tracking his concentration camps by bypassing the bidding process, remember that Tom Homan accepted a pre-bribe from concentration camp co & Trump decided that was totally cool. www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/blog/ice-buy...
Under WEXMAC, companies can be “pre-qualified.” Once pre-qualified, the government can issue task orders without going through any normal bidding process. On Friday night, the Trump administration quietly announced that private prison giant The GEO Group had been added to the WEXMAC-TITUS list of pre-qualified vendors, along with several other companies which specialize in things such as “turnkey workforce housing and temporary shelters [and] large-scale camp construction,” “rapid-deployment staffing solutions” and “protective services and secure detention transport operations.”

In other words, ICE is now able to tap into the entirety of the $45 billion to award contracts to private prison operators and other contractors to start work on the warehouses it has purchased almost immediately, without any normal bidding process, and with potentially far less transparency than normal.
