He's going to use it on natural born Americans, regardless of ethnicity, hue, gender, religion or lack of.

He's gotta get his deportation numbers up by any means necessary. He's behind Bidens average.

He wants his cleansed Nazi ethnostate, with Y'all qaeda in charge to get slave births up. Overbreeding means it doesn't matter how many die.

This is a blanket excuse to remove all Venezuelans or Venezuelan adjacent ethnic groups (regardless of nationality (or citizenship?)) OR keep them indefinitely at interment camps.

As we saw with the legal resident who had a court order to not remove her, a Doctor, the fascist fucks did it anyway.

They don't give a damn about the rule or law, courts or anything that doesn't fit their agenda.

Democrats are fucking STUPID for signing that bill.

I’m glad I left them. I’m glad I joined a party that is on the ground with mostly all of the protests, and trying to push for major revolution.

Ikr, he couldn't just do the awful thing

He just HAD to make it an ego-stroking/king complex thing as well.

I want out of this wretched country.

I bet he had someone bring him a vest for it, too.

Fuck.

A judge has already shot it down. It's probably not going anywhere.

Except their whole playbook is to ignore law anyway. They will do whatever they want as long as no one physically stops them.

Yeah, I was naive. Red team is now playing hot potato for the blame on this move that I think they thought would be a PR stunt, so we'll see how that goes, but nope, the court order did not do what I thought it would.
