Donald Trump’s allies and some in the private sector have been quietly preparing to detain and deport migrants residing in the United States on a large scale, according to four sources familiar with the discussions.
All the while instantly and completely removing all the taxes they pay into without benefit in the first place. We are so fucked that this slide into fascism isn’t even a surprise or ignorant of history. We know it’s happening, we are seeing it in real-time.
Of course, if you privatize every social program and close a bunch of government departments, those taxes are less necessary. If people starve in the street? Fuck them for not pulling themselves up by their bootstraps and being born rich.
Trump is fine with concentration camps. Who is going to staff them? If he forces the National Guard to do it, the people in the National Guard arn’t going to be too happy, it’s not fun work.
Maybe not at this scale, but Republicans have already been bussing and flying people for a while now. Martha’s Vineyard ring any bells. This isn’t extradition, it’s deportation. They just just want these people out of their hometowns.
Extradition is if you commit a crime and flee to a different country, the first country can demand the second country send them back to stand trial. Sorry you have your terms mixed up. But anyways, don’t think you can turn back your own citizens. That’s kinda the whole point of citizenship.
Things to remember:
There is only one way to deal with all of that: concentration camps. That’s the only possible way to do what they want to do.

The neolibs and neocons united in their zeal to funnel taxpayer dollars into private hands. They ONLY differ on whose hands.

There is no shortage of cops who would happily take a change of jobs in order to beat brown people and maybe also rape them.
Border patrol.
I think you have to take your citizens back. Eg Venezuela has to take back their Venezuelan citizens.
But yes there’s going to be a huge problem proving or accepting they are Venezuelan. I don’t know how much paperwork they brought with them.
Extradition treaties have to be negotiated. You can’t just stick 50,000 people on a bunch of airplanes to Caracas and drop them off.

Flying people internally and sending them to another country are very different things.

They’ve already started construction on the camps.
