This is essential reading for all of us, especially our state legislators and local leaders. Please let's stop this before we pass the point of no return. The only words for what Trump and Miller are doing is building a network of concentration camps.

“I’ve mentioned before that concentration camp regimes in their early stages often make use of large open infrastructure to convert into detention spaces. Dachau was converted from a shuttered factory into a concentration camp in 1933.”
When I got the contract to write a history of concentration camps in 2014, I hoped to keep the US from ending up here. That didn't work out! But now it's critical to understand how much is already in process and the enormity of what's coming. The sooner we act to stop it, the more people we'll save.

House Republicans unveiled a more extreme version of the SAVE Act that would require voters to show a passport or birth certificate to register to vote and photo ID to cast a ballot.
If enacted, the strict rules could keep millions of registered Americans from casting ballots in the 2026 midterms.
