It does make you wonder who the next companies will be trying to hide their participation in current other atrocities that have yet to be aknowledged as such?
It wasn’t just bigger names like Volkswagen it was also the chemical companies manufacturing Zyklon B, it was the ventilation company that made the air ducts for the gas chambers. So many little pieces of cooperation that were needed to create an atrocity.
There were also plenty of businesses in America (like Chase bank) that made the decision to enable the Nazis and profit from the opportunity. Chase Bank knew what they were doing, and their willingness to financially assist Nazi Germany helped keep the German economy afloat.
Obviously for Trump/ICE it would be Amazon, Palantir, Geo Group, and Core Civic. I would guess all Meta platforms like Facebook and IG, Reddit, Spotify, all the airlines and transportation companies arranging deportations.
There’s been a few articles about the individuals and companies profiting most from helping the administration suppress free speech by selling tear gas and other forms of crowd control:
Quantico Tactical, a weapons and armor distributor based in Aberdeen, North Carolina, is by far the biggest supplier of chemical weapons to ICE and CBP during Trump’s second term, per contracting records. Founded by North Carolina-based David Hensley
Safariland is owned by Cadre Holdings, which is run by billionaire Warren Kanders, a former Morgan Stanley banker who has acquired a small army of defense and law enforcement weaponry and armour businesses over the years.
Safariland also sells equipment through ADS, or Atlantic Diving Supply, founded by Virginia Beach-based Luke Hillier. It has sold over $400,000 in pepper spray and tear gas to ICE and CBP since Trump returned to the White House. As Forbes previously reported, **ADS is one of ICE’s biggest suppliers of military and AI technologies more generally, including Skydio drones, body armor, guns and ammunition.*"
Warren Kanders’ Cadre, which makes body armor and bomb suits, has gotten a boost from Trump’s defense spending and Europe’s race to rearmament. Now it’s preparing for the war on nuclear cleanup.
Also looks like in addition to CoreCivic and GeoGroup the administration is now bringing in some smaller companies to help build their warehouse concentration camps:
Defense contractor KVG LLC was awarded a government contract worth at least $113.1 million
Security contractor GardaWorld Federal Services LLC was awarded its own contract worth at least $313.4 million
Basically any company big or small that is profiting off of the actions of this administration should be held accountable. Idk if anybody is keeping a single list, but we need one. A list of every deflection of responsibility and “They approached us, what were we supposed to do? Not take the offer? If it wasn’t us it would have been somebody else.”

[looks at widespread cooperation with the Palestinian genocide]
I think we’ve got a list already made…

We need a list like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_companies_involved_in_the_Holocaust
Would be interesting to see a venn diagram showing involvement then and now bc I’m sure there’s overlap.
