The World’s #Autocrats No Longer Take #Trump Seriously

The leaders of #Russia, #China, & #NorthKorea are not good men. They preside over brutal autocracies replete with #SecretPolice & #PrisonCamps. But they are, nevertheless, serious men, & they know an unserious man when they see one. For nearly a decade, they have taken Trump’s measure, & they have clearly reached a conclusion: The president of the #US is not worthy of their respect.

If you're wondering where FEMA's funding is going, it's going to fund prison camps.

I have had four firsthand accounts of Hitler's awfulness. My good friend was in the French Resistance, my best friend in middle school his father was a Nazi concentration camp survivor, a woman who was one of Schindler's children, and my father a WWII Marine.

All of what we are seeing now in #trump's #fascist regime is what happened in Hitler's. There are far too many similarities to just poo-poo it any longer. We are there again people.

"...Photographers for the War Relocation Authority were on hand as they were forced to leave their houses, shops, farms, fishing boats. For months they stayed at “assembly centers,” living in racetrack barns or on fairgrounds. Then they were shipped to ten “relocation centers,” primitive camps built in the remote landscapes of the interior West and Arkansas. The regime was penal: armed guards, barbed wire, roll call. Years later, internees would recollect the cold, the heat, the wind, the dust—and the isolation...."

Eight Things You Can Do to Stop #ICE

2025-02-11, via #CrimethInc

"The #Trump administration is paving the way for #MassDeportations by building new #PrisonCamps and invoking the #AlienEnemiesAct, which was used to justify the internment of #JapaneseAmericans during World War II. Motivated by nativism and white nationalism, Steven Miller and other officials are attempting to ethnically cleanse the United States, while tech and prison companies profit on lucrative government contracts and corporations continue to exploit immigrant labor. Knowing that mass deportations will inflict devastating costs, Trump has chiefly been concentrating his efforts in cities like Chicago and Denver that are governed by his political adversaries.

"Nonetheless, people are getting organized. Communities across the US are mobilizing rapid response networks that can respond to raids and support those targeted by #StateViolence. Students across the US are staging #walkouts; people are holding mass #demonstrations and fighting back against deportations.

"If we fail to stand in solidarity with those targeted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) today, the same infrastructure of repression will eventually be turned against others, as well. An injury to one is an injury to all!

"Do your part to melt the ICE."

All you need to know about Guantánamo Bay

President Donald Trump says he will use a detention center at Guantánamo Bay to hold tens of thousands of criminal immigrants in the U.S. illegally. While the U.S. naval base is best known for the suspects brought in after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, it also has a separate facility used for decades to hold detained immigrants. The U.S. has leased Guantánamo from Cuba for more than a century. Cuba opposes the lease and typically rejects the nominal U.S. rent payments. Trump signed a presidential memorandum and said he'd direct federal officials to get facilities ready. Border czar Tom Homan said U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement would run the facility. Still, details of the plan weren’t immediately clear.
