China is building new detention centers all over the country as Xi Jinping widens corruption purge
China has built or expanded more than 200 specialized detention facilities nationwide to interrogate suspects ensnared in Xi Jinping’s widening anti-corruption drive, a CNN investigation has found, as the Chinese leader extends his crackdown beyond the ruling Communist Party to a vast swath of public sectors.
Since taking power in 2012, Xi has launched a sweeping campaign against graft and disloyalty, taking down corrupt officials as well as political rivals at an unprecedented speed and scale as he consolidated control over the party and the military.
Now well into his third term, the supreme leader has turned his relentless campaign into a permanent and institutionalized feature of his open-ended rule.
And increasingly, some of the most fearsome tools he has wielded to keep officials in line are being used against a much broader section of society, from private entrepreneurs to school and hospital administrators – regardless of whether they are members of the 99-million-strong party.
The expanded detention regime, named “liuzhi,” or “retention in custody,” comes with facilities with padded surfaces and round-the-clock guards in every cell, where detainees can be held for up to six months without ever seeing a lawyer or family members.
It’s an extension of a system long used by the party to exert control and instill fear among its members.
As Xi expands his campaign of terror into the bureaucracy of China in a desperate bid to punish corruption in an economy that is faltering so badly it is causing the peasants to revolt, Trump is preparing for the militarisation of Immigration with private prisons…
Trump allies, private sector quietly prepare for mass detention of immigrants
Donald Trump’s allies and some in the private sector have been quietly preparing to detain and deport migrants residing in the United States on a large scale, according to four sources familiar with the discussions.
And with the former president becoming the president-elect, those preparations are now expected to ramp up.
Immigration was a cornerstone of Trump’s 2024 campaign, and while he repeatedly touted promises of mass deportation on the trail – putting increased emphasis on interior enforcement compared to his 2016 fixation on the border wall – members of his orbit and some in the private sector discussed what that plan would look like, according to the sources.
Trump’s day one priority is to reinstate his former administration’s border policies and reverse those of President Joe Biden, senior Trump adviser Jason Miller told CNN.
Early discussions among Trump’s team have focused on removing undocumented immigrants who have committed crimes, a source familiar with the team’s preliminary plans told CNN. A key issue under consideration is how, when and if to deport immigrants who were brought to the United States as children, commonly known as Dreamers.
…Trump is going to use private prisons to build the massive detention camps required for his immigration sweeps.
Both Trump and Xi are turning on their own people in an attempt to control their respective countries with a mix of fear and abuse of power.
With Trump’s insane tariff promise looking more like a religious experience than economic plan, the Chinese economy will be as wrecked as the American one.
War becomes the only means out of this doom loop.
Trump wants to move American military assets away from Europe after he forces Zelensky to surrender and reset them against China, because that’s where the MAGA Plutocracy around Trump believes the next conflict will be.
Trump and Xi are the same fists in different gloves and it warns us that 2025 will be far worse a year than 2024.

Illegal migrants will be deported, there is a legal pathway to citizenship, throw out the ones who usurped that pathway and ‘jumped the queue’.
What other countries on the planet allow their country to be an ‘open border’ and people just come in illegally en mass?

Why do you think the latino vote was so much higher this election for Trump?
Because even the legal Latinos are sick of the mass invasion.
Well the UK welcome large numbers of unvetted, military-age males who seek to exploit their welfare system – thousands of whom appear to have a penchant for gang-raping vulnerable young native girls. Strangely enough politicians, police and media of all political stripes have tried to hush this up.
