The former president reportedly plans on utilizing the military to enforce immigration policies and erecting deportation camps along the border.
Donald Trump isnāt only looking to reinstate the extreme, anti-immigration policies of his first term if he wins in November; he is seeking to take things a step further. āWe have to do something about it,ā Trump told Fox Newsā Laura Ingraham in a town hall Tuesday, repeating his ugly 2015 claim that other countries are ānot sending their finestā to the United States. āWe have the worst border in the history of the world.ā
Claiming that countries are āemptying out their prisonsā into the U.S., Trump reiterated his plans to carry out mass deportations, which he has promised on the campaign trail would be the ālargestā in American history. Of course, he was vague on the details, telling Ingraham that he would āget the bad ones out first,ā which heād find using ālocal police.ā
Nevertheless, the remarks provided yet another glimpse into the radical border policies heād pursue in a second termāwhich, as the Washington Post reported Wednesday, could include mobilizing the military for immigration enforcement and the establishment of deportation camps along the border. āAmericans can expect that immediately upon President Trumpās return to the Oval Office, he will restore all of his prior policies, implement brand new crackdowns that will send shock waves to all the worldās criminal smugglers, and marshal every federal and state power necessary to institute the largest deportation operation in American history,ā campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt told the outlet. Undocumented immigrants āshould not get comfortable,ā she added, ābecause very soon they will be going home.ā
Biden isnāt committing genocide though, neither is the US. Israel is doing it. The US has prior agreements to support its allies and a vested interest in protecting trade in the area, but it is not actively participating in Israelās genocide. Claiming the US is responsible for Israelās actions is like claiming the US is responsible for Saudi Arabiaās blockade and subsequent famine in Yemen, or like claiming NATO is responsible for the war in Ukraine.
Itās a common tactic of fascist communist regimes to try and bring the US or NATO into things theyāre only tangentally related to, when ironically they are no more related than the accusers.
Yes, Biden and the US should be taking a harder stance against Israel, but be careful not to devolve it into fascist talking points.
Dude. If you give a guy a missile and he drops it on civilians, then asks for more missilesā¦ā¦ and then you give him more missiles.
You are the one committing genocide.
Biden and the United States is engaged in genocide. If you believe otherwise you are not living in reality.
The United States is engaged in multiple genocides.
And yet, when Iāve brought up this one, a genocide entirely perpetrated by Republicans, three times over the past two days, itās either been ignored or denied.

While I do have a few friends who are trans, I donāt know enough about the issue to comment very much.
I do know the republicans are bigoted towards trans, same with many religious groups, and that trans are targets of crime way more often than other groupsā¦.
I would argue instead that while genocide is happening in the US, that doesnāt mean it is directly enacted by the US government, ie the White House.
Meanwhile, under Trump, ICE were actively perfoming involuntary hysterectomies on immigrant detainees - a textbook form of genocide by a Federal agency directed by the White House.
The US is quircky in that there are many layers of government. Certain layers are indeed genocidal, but theyāre not in charge of the entire country. The US government is in charge of the country, State governments are a lower authority.
