A Palantir Technologies app called ELITE (Enhanced Leads Identification & Targeting for Enforcement) provides ICE agents with a digital map populated by potential deportation targets. According to a user guide obtained by 404 Media, ELITE is a targeting tool designed to improve capabilities for identifying and prioritizing high-value targets through advanced analytics.

The app allows ICE agents to select individual targets or multiple targets at once. During a sworn deposition earlier this month an officer with ICE’s Fugitive Operations Unit said that agents used the app to find target-rich areas.

Sounds like we need an armed anti-ICE group that has the same data, knowing where those raids are going to happen and then greet them with 'fireworks' at several locations at the same time.

While I don't believe we are going to see armed struggle against fascism in the US, one surely can dream.
