Attorney Kate Lincoln-Goldfinch joins a discussion about the case of Brian Morales, a U.S. citizen who was deported to Mexico after being detained during a traffic stop in Texas.

According to his attorneys, Morales was born in Colorado and possesses a certified birth certificate, birth records, and other documentation supporting his U.S. citizenship. Despite repeatedly telling authorities that he was a U.S. citizen, he was ultimately transferred through multiple law enforcement agencies and deported to Mexico after signing paperwork under alleged duress.

Morales remains in Mexico while his legal team pursues a federal lawsuit seeking his return to the United States and damages related to his detention and deportation ...

8. This criminal enterprise could not care less about the law.

It's a free-for-all as far as I can see. They aren’t even trying at this point.

They seem to be using the game 52 pickup to make all of their important decisions.

There isn't an eye roll big enough to express how I feel.

3. What?

Let's not imagine that a little thing like the Law is going to stop anyone in the [Redacted] Administration.

5. If we're deporting US citizens now, I've got some recommendations

Nominated for deportation: Hegseth, Trump, Melania, Scott Carr, Education Secretary McMahon, John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, Alito, both Kushners, Little Marco, Steve Bannon, Stephen Miller.

My list countains about 500 more people. I'll not list them here, for brevity.

6. Born in East L. A.

That's virtually the same as the plot of Born in East L. A. (1987) starring Cheech Marin!

7. Everyone of us stands this same chance of it happening to us

I know we are all aware of this. If they fuck with us in November it's gonna be war!

9. Welp, he looks Mexican.

The intellectually challenged moron's word for anyone who's Hispanic.

Once again, 250th anniversary? Of what? A land crammed full of racist morons? I ain't feeling it.

10. First they came for the Communists...

Well, Greg Bovino did say he wants to deport one-third of the country. I doubt he’s alone in that sentiment. They can’t meet that goal with just ‘illegal aliens’. At some point, we could all be on their list.

16. Bovino was pretty much a public Nazi

No shame, no effort to keep his identity under wraps, a goose-stepping, stiff-arm-saluting scum puddle of a Nazi. You know, like the rest of the Orange Colostomy Bag's administration and most of the craven, empty members of the Fascist GOP.

12. They are all being denied access to the courts by any means and coercing signatures on "voluntary" deportation orders...

... is now SOP.

The horrific conditions at Delaney Hall and at other concentration camps are only possible because the "inmates" are denied access to the legal system. Too much focus has been put on those conditions and too little on the CAUSE -- the denial of access to the legal system.

It should not take extraordinary efforts to secure legal representation and secure the right to be heard in court. But the criminal barriers to access to the legal system that have been erected as a matter of policy are nearly insurmountable.

The focus has rightly been on the horrific conditions, but the REAL problem is denial of access to the legal system. Because of that denial, the private prison personnel, companies, ICE, and CBP believe they can do ANYTHING, absolutely ANYTHING to the people in their "care."

13. Isn't their plan to remove 100 million non-whites?

including the people admitted since laws restricting immigration by non-whites were relaxed in the mid-1960s. They literally want to deport now-citizens who entered lawfully, in order to ensure a white majority. Cases such as the one described above are the tip of the spear of what they would like to do.

The Supreme Court will soon rule in a case that will decide the future of birthright citizenship. The case has become more significant than ever because some officials are now openly advocating for ethnic cleansing—mass removals of tens of millions of U.S.-born Americans based on their ancestry.

In barely a year, the right has moved from the already controversial mass deportation of all undocumented immigrants to mass deportation of Americans. The 14th Amendment, drafted in part to prevent ethnic cleansing, should stop it. Whether it will is now up to the Supreme Court.
The ‘100 Million’ Fantasy

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) initiated this shift in December when its social media account posted an image of a sunny beach with the caption: “The peace of a nation no longer besieged by the third world: America after 100 million deportations.” Deportations based on what? Not on legal status but on ancestry in the “third world.”...

In other words, DHS is openly advocating for the deportations of tens of millions of citizens, including almost 50 million U.S.-born citizens. This is not an aberration. Greg Bovino, the recently retired Border Patrol chief, told The New York Times in March that while leading Border Patrol’s interior operations, he drafted “a plan to deport 100 million people.”

14. It's about just how thoroughly and deeply Trump and his Nazified crew will go

These pigs (sorry for the insult to all honest porcine creatures) are racists, bold, vile, public about it. They don't care, anymore than the Orange Colostomy Bag cares, about the law or the Constitution. I'm trying not to see the image of pigs, uniformed in leather with swastika arm patches grunting and snorting at a bar after a hard day's work destroying people's lives, laughing and forcing themselves on the barmaids.



And so it goes.

15. This country...

17. It would be really embarrassing if Eric or Donnie Trump was mistakenly deported to Rwanda..

18. This is the plan. They normalize grabbing the undocumented, and then oh my! They "accidentally" grab a citizen. And then

they keep kidnapping more and more people including citizens. And it becomes normalized. This is one step on the road to their long range goal to be able incarcerate anyone of any color regardless of citizenship status without trial whenever they want. In effect, turning us into a total police state. That's why they're building the concentration camps.

It is essential to our survival as a free people that all persons whether or not they are citizens; whether or not they are documented or undocumented, that they not be imprisoned or deported without adjudication.

Unless every single one of us is safe, none of us are safe.
