Is US Building Secret Detention Facilities For Dissidents?!

Claim : US Is Building Secret Detention Facilities For Dissidents!

People are sharing an article (archive) by The People’s Voice (formerly NewsPunch), which claims that the US government is building secret detention facilities with WEF to detain millions of dissidents!

Here is an excerpt of the article. Feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

US Gov’t Building Secret Detention Facilities in 50 States for ‘Non-Compliant Dissidents’

A whistleblower who worked for the Department of Health and Human Services has revealed the US government in collaboration with the World Economic Forum is building secret detention facilities in all 50 states capable of detaining millions of people.

According to whistleblowers, these prison-like compounds located in sparsely populated and controlled locations, will be used for those who refuse to comply with upcoming government mandates and regulations regarding long-term lockdowns and new vaccines for the new plandemic.

The US government is secretly constructing large-scale detention facilities out of public view across all 50 states, but they are not for housing illegal immigrants. The purpose is far more sinister.

Christie Hutcherson from Women Fighting For America reveals the truth. Hutcherson is somebody we should be listening to very closely. Former Customs and Border Protection Supervisor J.J. Carrell explains more. As J.J. Carrell explains, under the Biden administration, ICE facilities across the country are sitting empty.

Truth : US Is Not Building Secret Detention Facilities For Dissidents!

This is yet another example of fake news created / promoted by The People’s Voice, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : US Isn’t Building Secret Detention Facilities For Dissidents

First, let me just point out that the US government isn’t building secret detention facilities to house millions of dissidents.

If that is actually happening, it would have been reported by the mainstream media, and criticised widely. As you can tell – none of that happened, because it was all made up!

The People’s Voice article never provided any evidence that secret detention facilities to house millions of dissidents. It only referred to existing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facilities.

Fact #2 : There Was No Whistleblower

The People’s Voice article claimed that a whistleblower who worked for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) revealed that the US government isn’t building secret detention facilities to house millions of dissidents. That’s not true.

The article and its video showed Christie Hutcherson talking about illegal immigrants coming into the United States, and how ICE facilities could be used as “concentration camps” and “processing facilities” for dissidents.

However, Christie Hutcherson is not a whistleblower who worked for the HHS. Instead, Christie Hutcherson is the founder and leading spokesperson of Women Fighting For America – an organisation designated by the Southern Poverty Law Center as a hate group.

Christie Hutcherson never claimed to be a whistleblower who worked for the HHS, so why would anyone suggest otherwise???

Fact #3 : ICE Is Under DHS, Not HHS

Even if Christie Hutcherson somehow used to work for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), she cannot possibly be a whistleblower because she would have no insight into what’s going on at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

That’s because ICE is under the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), not the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)!

Fact #4 : WEF Not Involved In ICE Facilities

I should also point out that the World Economic Forum (WEF) is an international non-governmental organisation (NGO) that focuses on public-private sector collaboration.

It is not a construction company, nor does it have any expertise or input into the design or construction of ICE facilities.

Unsurprisingly, The People’s Voice article did provided no evidence of the WEF being involved in ICE facilities.

Fact #5 : Homeland Security Post Is Fake

The cover image used by The People’s Voice article and video has a screenshot which purportedly shows the US Department of Homeland Security posting on X (formerly Twitter) that:

We have a ZERO tolerance policy for non-compliance.

That is a fake screenshot, because there is no such post on X by the US Department of Homeland Security. If the DHS actually made such a shocking post, it would have been reported by the media across the world. But of course, that didn’t happen, because the DHS never posted it!

Why would The People’s Voice article use a fake screenshot???

Fact #6 : The People’s Voice Is Known For Fake News

The People’s Voice is the current name for NewsPunch, which possibly changed its name because its brand has been so thoroughly discredited after posting numerous shocking but fake stories.

Founded as Your News Wire in 2014, it was rebranded as NewsPunch in November 2018, before becoming The People’s Voice. A 2017 BuzzFeed report identified NewsPunch as the second-largest source of popular fake news on Facebook that year.

Its articles have been regularly debunked as fake news, so you should never share anything from NewsPunch / The People’s Voice. Here are some of its fake stories that I fact checked earlier:

Were Marines + Army Rangers Just Sent To Texas Border?!

Claim : Marines + Army Rangers Were Sent To Texas Border!

On 27 January 2024, Real Raw News posted an article (archive) claiming that General Eric M. Smith just sent Marines and Army Rangers to join the Texas National Guard protecting the border!

As usual, the article is long, rambling and confusing, so here is an excerpt. Please feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

A White Hat convoy carrying crates of rifles and spools of razor wire arrived in Eagle Pass, Texas, Friday afternoon to support the Texas National Guard in its regional border dispute with unlawful federal forces, a source in General Eric M. Smith’s office told Real Raw News.

General Eric M. Smith and the White Hat council, he said, approved the rapid deployment as a measured response to the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling that allows federal Border Protection agents to remove concertina wire lain across the Rio Grande to prevent would-be illegals and terrorists from setting foot on Texas soil.

According to our source, Gen. Smith’s office spoke with Gov. Abbott immediately following the Court’s deliberate misinterpretation of federal law.

“The general told Gov. Abbott he could muster forces and have trucks ready to roll in 24 hours,” our source said. “Texas has helped us in the past, and we weren’t going to leave Abbott hanging. He said he’d welcome us with open arms.”

Our source wouldn’t enumerate the number of men sent to Texas, but he said the task force includes Marines and U.S. Army Rangers. His mentioning “hundreds of spools of wire,” each 50 feet long, hints at an armada ready to reckon with federal goons if push comes to shove. He said the task force will be embedded in and wear the uniforms of the Texas National Guard to show solidarity.

“Our goal is to gently convince border services to uphold, not violate, their constitutional oath. We hope they will heed that advice. We’re not in this for bloodshed, but we’re not shy about confronting federal forces—a fact we’ve proven time and time again,” our source said.

Truth : Marines + Army Rangers Were Not Sent To Texas Border… Yet!

The truth is – this is just another FAKE STORY created by Real Raw News, just to generate page views and money.

Fact #1 : Real Raw News Is A Fake News Website

Real Raw News is a fake news website that capitalises on making shocking but fake stories to generate page views and money.

To protect himself from legal repercussions, the owner and writer, Michael Baxter (real name – Michael Tuffin), claims that his articles are “humour, parody, and satire“.

That disclaimer, which is not clearly mentioned in his articles, lets him keep creating fake news to go viral, and generate money.

His articles have been regularly debunked as fake news, so you should NEVER share anything from his website. Here are some of his fake stories that I debunked earlier:

Everything posted by Real Raw News must be regarded as FAKE NEWS, until proven otherwise.

Fact #2 : Marines + Army Rangers Were Not Sent To Texas Border

This is really silly, but it has to be said – US Marines and Army Rangers were not sent to the Texas border to support Governor Greg Abbott’s refusal to comply with a recent US Supreme Court ruling, allowing US Border Patrol agents to remove razor wire placed on the Texas border.

Neither were any US Marine or Army Ranger instructed to wear the uniform of the Texas National Guard to “show solidarity”. That’s just utter nonsense.

Such an action would have been considered mutiny, and it would have been covered extensively by the US mainstream media, if not news organisations all over the world.

Yet, no legitimate media outlet reported such a shocking story? That’s because it never happened. It was all made up.

Fact #3 : Mutiny Carries A Death Penalty Sentence

The US military is subservient to the US civilian leadership, which is currently the Biden Administration under US President Joe Biden. Deploying military troops without a direct order by the Biden Administration would be mutiny under Article 94 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ).

Military personnel committing mutiny would be subject to a court martial, and those found guilty shall be punished by death or other alternative punishments that the court martial may decide.

Fact #4 : US Marine Generals Don’t Command Army Rangers

The Real Raw News writer does not appear to understand the basic concept of the military chain of command, or the fact that the United States has multiple uniformed services.

General Eric M. Smith is the 39th commandant of the US Marine Corps, which is just one of eight uniformed services in the United States. He only has command over the US Marine Corps, but not the other uniformed services like the Army, Navy, Air Force, etc.

In short – it is simply impossible for General Eric M. Smith to order US Army Rangers to do anything. The Rangers are part of the US Army, which is a completely different uniformed service.

Fact #4 : US Military Have Been Deployed To Help DHS

The Customs and Border Protection (CBP) of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is the federal agency in charge of the border at Texas and other US states.

The US military have been deployed to the Texas border on several occasions by the civilian administration of the day – in 2018 under President Trump, and in 2023 under President Biden. However, they were always there to assist the CBP, with the CBP deciding on where those Marines were deployed, and how they could assist.

The Real Raw News, on the other hand, is claiming that US Marines and US Army Rangers were deployed to help the Texas National Guard fight against the CBP. That’s just utter nonsense. If any US Marines were to be deployed in 2024, it would certainly be to help the CBP, not to fight against them.

Everything posted by Real Raw News should be regarded as FAKE NEWS.

Kaspersky Lab Challenges DHS Ban Of Kaspersky Products

1 Reply

December 19, 2017 – Kaspersky Lab is challenging the DHS ban of the use of its products in federal agencies. In a statement issued today, Kaspersky Lab announced that it is seeking an appeal in federal court of U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) decision on Binding Operational Directive 17-01 banning the use of the company’s products in federal agencies.

Kaspersky Lab Challenges DHS Ban Of Kaspersky Products

Kaspersky Lab has filed an appeal under the Administrative Procedure Act to enforce its constitutional due process rights and challenge the DHS ban on the use of the company’s products and solutions by U.S. government agencies.

The company asserts that the DHS’s decision is unconstitutional and relied on subjective, non-technical public sources such as uncorroborated and often anonymously sourced media reports, related claims, and rumours.

Furthermore, Kaspersky Lab claims that the DHS failed to provide the company adequate due process to rebut the unsubstantiated allegations underlying the Directive and has not provided any evidence of wrongdoing.

Kaspersky Lab reached out to DHS in mid-July, offering to provide any information or assistance concerning the company, its operations, or its products. In mid-August, DHS confirmed receipt of the company’s letter, appreciating the offer to provide information and expressing interest in future communications with Kaspersky Lab regarding the matter.

However, the next communication from DHS to Kaspersky Lab was notification regarding the issuance of Binding Operational Directive 17-01 on September 13, 2017.

The DHS ban on the use of Kaspersky products in federal agencies damaged Kaspersky Lab’s reputation and its sales in the U.S. In filing this appeal, Kaspersky Lab hopes to protect its due process rights under the U.S. Constitution and federal law and repair the harm caused to its commercial operations, its U.S.-based employees, and its U.S.-based business partners.

“Because Kaspersky Lab has not been provided a fair opportunity in regards to the allegations and no technical evidence has been produced to validate DHS’s actions, it is in the company’s interests to defend itself in this matter. Regardless of the DHS decision, we will continue to do what really matters: make the world safer from cybercrime,” said Eugene Kaspersky, CEO of Kaspersky Lab.

The Kaspersky Global Transparency Initiative

On 23 October 2017, Kaspersky Lab launched its Global Transparency Initiative. This Initiative will include :

[adrotate group=”2″]

an independent review of the company’s source code, software updates and threat detection rules;
an independent review of internal processes to verify the integrity of the company’s solutions and processes;
three transparency centers by 2020, in Asia, Europe and the U.S.; and
increased bug bounty rewards up to $100k per discovered vulnerability in Kaspersky Lab products.
