As an added note, they deported multiple children to Colombia the other day. Half the people they've arrested in specific areas have zero criminal records. Some are even US citizens. This is not for immigrants, this a Latino concentration camp.
I know two people first hand who have been here for over 30 years with no criminal records who are being detained. These are the people being sent to Guantanamo.
Source on citizens being rounded up?
Some are even US citizens.
Some are indigenous.

Mark my words- queer people will be next.
~~Homosexuality~~ Queerdom is a ~~Jewish~~ immigrant plot against ~~Germany~~ the US.
It's practically fascist mad libs.
The path to that easier than you might think. Just get the propaganda mill talking about Thai ladyboys and black-market hormones a bit. They love little talking points that are are rooted in preconceptions and tiny slivers of half-truths that they can contort to fit their agenda...to expand on and then justify their actions.
They are fun to pick out. The other day Trump claimed that the ominous "they" were sending water directly to the ocean to save an endangered fish instead of to LA to fight fires.
That endangered fish is called a Delta Smelt. "Delta", as in a river delta, as found at the end of a river....you know, that thing that carries said water to the ocean.
Trans women specifically, the others are safe for a few more years then it will be their turn.

Call your senators

Call your representative in the house

It's "illegal" migrants now. But it will be us eventually! Do not let it get to that point. They did not win this election by a landslide, and they can only do as much damage as we let them!

The way I understand it we have these places in the US call prisons and they are used to house criminals. I guess the only problem with that is in order to put people in them they have to be guilty of a crime.

I don't know anything but isn't Guantanamo Bay, like, kinda small?
That’s only an issue if you assume they’ll be treated with any humanity
All the better for them to die faster of unliveable conditions, it seems
Don't worry, they'll find a way to pack people in. Maybe some kind of high energy weight loss system like their role models used in the 1940s?
This is bad juju. The detention camps from the first cycle with this fascists was nothing on what we're seeing ramping up here.

At it's peak it held about 800 prisoners, kinda impossibly small for the numbers discussed here.
Edit-- Well, trump did say "Most people don’t even know that we have 30,000 beds in Guantanamo", I guess file me with most people. Must be incredible how they scaled up while simultaneously closing camps and losing facilities to disrepair, apparently.
Could it be that Trump is lying?

Wasn't trump one of the Obama critics demanding him to close it?
But it’s OK because it’s Trump doing it not Biden.
