I’m seeing enough people talking about the impracticality of “mass deportation”—tens of millions of people!—that I feel the need to point out that the numbers are a bit of a red herring here. What Trump et al. are signaling with the word “mass” isn’t scale; it’s arbitrariness.

If you want there to be F&SF fiction mags, we need to do something now, while Amazon is removing their support. Check out one mag's website today and support them, if you have the means. Or just RT this if you can't, because the situation is pretty dire.

It's a looming crisis that the coverage of race between Biden and Trump barely ever hits on the immutable fact that only the current POTUS actually understands what the job entails. In the four years in office Trump never grasped the job beyond the demands of an insatiable press gaggle.
