How is this any different than when the Nazis sorted people in their concentration camps?
More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

Pam Bondi's performance today - and what a performance it was! - was for one man only: the President. On that count she will feel confident she did her job.
As for the rest of us, she showed she does not care at all about us or all the people that this Administration puts in harm's way.

It was never about mass deportations. It was always about mass detentions. Without due process. Anyone can be detained at any time for any reason.
THEY ARE BUYING UP WAREHOUSES TO HOLD HUMAN BEINGS IN DETENTION INDEFINITELY.
I feel crazy at how everyone is acting like this is normal. These are concentration camps being built right before our eyes. These buildings are not meant to house human beings. People will be caged like cattle and die.

ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps.
If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...
