I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.

When I wrote my camps book, people sometimes had difficulty understanding how concentration-camp regimes were proud of what they were doing and wanted attention for it, even as they also hoped to keep many aspects secret and terrorize vulnerable classes. Anyway, this is what that looks like.

Look, it’s really not that hard to understand.
If Republicans *wanted* to shut the government down, they would’ve shut it down. They didn’t want to, because they knew they’d (rightfully) be blamed.
There’s no 5-dimensional chess happening here, the Treasonous Ten caved because they’re cowards.

Though I guess it qualifies as “classic” in the technical sense

"But I'm a citizen," you say. "This doesn't apply to me." It's a pretty short step from deporting lawful residents without due process to "show me your papers, you don't LOOK like a real American to ME" on the street.
Two high profile illegal detainment/deportment cases of *lawful residents* out of Logan Airport in Boston. This is a great thing to call your electeds about TODAY. ☎️ at reps.fyi
Chilling report from Brown University.
Administration advises all foreign students, staff, and faculty to postpone or reconsider (ie cancel) international travel, due to federal government's crackdown on universities.
Brown also warns against *domestic travel* -since it's unclear what ICE will do.

This may be the biggest free speech crisis in living memory. The president now bragging about detaining a lawful permanent resident and smearing him as 'pro Hamas', no outlining any specific crimes he is accused of or charged with. This is what a fascist takeover looks like.

Read up on the SAVE act. I am starting to believe that they named it that because it’s very close to the Safe Act and they think we wouldn’t know the difference.

What really gives it away is the fact that, under the SAVE Act, a “Real ID” is not enough to prove citizenship. Even though, to get a Real ID, you have to prove that you are a citizen.
The SAVE Act is specifically designed to disenfranchise a ton of American women.
Let us recall how many of the techbros now infiltrating the American government, like Peter Thiel, believe that women shouldn’t be allowed to vote.
