News from within the empire - From a leftist perspective
US Republicans have proposed $80 billion in spending to deport and imprison immigrants. Including $45 billion for detention centers. $45 billion can build a lot of concentration camps.
The bill is here: https://judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-subsites/republicans-judiciary.house.gov/files/evo-media-document/judiciary_recon_xml.pdf
Jesus Christ this is fucked.
The MAXIMUM estimates at the number of folks in the US illegally is below 20 million. So this bill is proposing that we spend over $4,000 per person and only to cover the next 4 years.
I'm curious about section 287(g) is of the immigration and nationalities act is - the fact that it's not named is a bit concerning.
$20 million to "check minors for gang tattoos" is fucking gross... oh, wait it's actually $40 million bc we have two departments doing it.
White European immigrants arrived at Ellis Island with legal status freely given as if it was candy meanwhile it’s the brown “invaders”…
Note: The Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo forced Mexico to surrender half its territory to the Anglo invaders. ¿Quién es aquí el invasor?
… who have to deal with ICE, gray legal statuses such as “withholding of removal” orders and a lifetime of legal hell if their criminal record is not spotless.
I’m absolutely tired of this bullshit. How about we start talking about deporting all of these white supremacists to some labor camp in Alaska for rehabilitation? I think Stalin was on to something here.
The reforming of coalition in response to the shift of focus on social issues means that the current Republicans in power are politicians who values protectionism, parochialism, and European conservative values. However, I want to question whether there are Republicans who question why their people prefers new immigrants of color over descendents of old European immigrants. Many Republicans should have strong meritocratic value and minimal government intervention that support the import of new immigrants. The claim that European immigrants deserve more privilege in the British diaspora is refutable considering that they continued their federal reserve concentration camps and their refusal to confess that they free ride over the Indigenous population through child slavery in fake schools which include great health research advancement from unethnical Indigenous human experimentations.
