because of what they did.

Don’t thought…think😀

My only wish is that all the consequences were limited to Trump supporters.

They're run by a bunch of Right Wingers. When homes get hit by floods, or any type of disaster they deal with her company to organize the clean up and repairs. So they have a list of contractors they use. But the main one who did more work for them than any other was this company owned by a guy named Jose. Jose was born in America, he was deported to Mexico last month, he's never been to Mexico in his life before.

Completely hit home for the company owners, their most trusted contractor deported for no reason. Of course they're making excuses for it by saying, "well, maybe he wasn't really born here." But the fact is, they know it is wrong and it is having a huge impact on their business. They have been scrambling to find new contractors to do the work they had scheduled with him and the contractors all have to be approved by the insurance companies.

It's happening in communities all over the country and is no longer in the headlines enough. These are good, law abiding people, having their lives torn apart and their families destroyed for no real reason other than racism.

ICE held an American man in custody for 1,273 days. He’s not the only one who had to prove his citizenship

Immigration officers in the United States operate under a cardinal rule: Keep your hands off Americans. But Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents repeatedly target U.S. citizens for deportation by mistake, making wrongful arrests based on incomplete government records, bad data and lax investigations, according to a Times review of federal lawsuits, internal ICE documents and interviews.

Since 2012, ICE has released from its custody more than 1,480 people after investigating their citizenship claims, according to agency figures. And a Times review of Department of Justice records and interviews with immigration attorneys uncovered hundreds of additional cases in the country’s immigration courts in which people were forced to prove they are Americans and sometimes spent months or even years in detention.

Victims include a landscaper snatched in a Home Depot parking lot in Rialto and held for days despite his son’s attempts to show agents the man’s U.S. passport; a New York resident locked up for more than three years fighting deportation efforts after a federal agent mistook his father for someone who wasn’t a U.S. citizen; and a Rhode Island housekeeper mistakenly targeted twice, resulting in her spending a night in prison the second time even though her husband had brought her U.S. passport to a court hearing.

They and others described the panic and feeling of powerlessness that set in as agents took them into custody without explanation and ignored their claims of citizenship.

The wrongful arrests account for a small fraction of the more than 100,000 arrests ICE makes each year, and it’s unclear whether the Trump administration’s aggressive push to increase deportations will lead to more mistakes. But the detentions of U.S. citizens amount to an unsettling type of collateral damage in the government’s effort to remove undocumented or unwanted immigrants.

than the constitutional rights of people.

That is all

Trump acts as the quintessential strongmen do in third world countries. That appeals to a segment of the population, to the point they discount the danger to themselves. Trump's ride to the White House has been driven by nativism, which has an ugly but potent history in America's populist movements. Nativism works as a political engager, typically with exaggerated portrayals of the dangers posed by migrants and immigrants. Thinking one is on the preferred in-group when one isn't goes hand in hand with this.
