When I was a lad, back in the days of Ford and Reagan, Republicans constantly told us that having to carry proof of citizenship was the kind of thing the Nazis and Soviets and other totalitarian regimes did.

It was a core theme of my "Americanism vs. Communism" required class in 1970s Florida high school. Made an impression.

@Meyerweb On a positive note, we can still buy and sell without a beastly mark on our right hand or forehead, so this administration still has room to get worse.

@Meyerweb And specifically forcing brown and black people to carry papers establishing the legality of their presence was the lynchpin of apartheid, which was created and enforced by people with the same motivations and moral nature as #Trump and the #Republicans.

Everyone who is a citizen can buy and wear a red white and blue star that they must affix to their clothing. Everyone else will be arrested. Visit trumpstarstore.com today!

Even people who have citizenship, have ID on them, and DO show it, are being accused of having forged the papers. There is no winning with these ICE goons.
