The BBB has passed, Trump will be signing it tomorrow. ICE will expand to its biggest size in history, construction of the wall will proceed to completion and deportation is about to become much more aggressive.

SCOTUS is reviewing a case on whether it is Constitutional for ICE agents and their partners to breach a home without any specific warrant or literal cause, but a justification to act. If their ruling is affirmative, this would mean all aliens can be raided and arrested at will, anywhere, even at home.

Reminder: We have an entire century to reverse. Trump's efforts are just the beginning. And then we have to make sure this can never happen again. America, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa and Europe must be freed by whatever means we can manage.

Trump has officially given Mass Deportation as much money in 1 year as the U.S. gave Israel in 75 years.

Trump is winning almost all of his court cases, ushering a serious solidification of power if Congress continues to support him.

Trump's latest EO mandates that foreigners will now pay much higher fees than Americans when visiting National Parks and tourist attractions. This will simultaneously filter out foreigners who cannot afford the expense—especially from the Third World—and offset the cost off of American taxpayers.

Had Kennedy's 1965 immigration act and the subsequent changes to policy not gone through, America would still be as White as a European country. Trump's current efforts are the start to undoing the legislative, cultural and demographic pretenses & consequences that have sunk America's American core.

Immigration from non-Protestant and non-Northwest-European nations dramatically shifted the United States leftward, forced the population to grow beyond its natural means and directly caused the disasters faced between 1965 and the 2020s.

The lesson here is that migration matters, even of close kinds, and its effects will echo for generations. We cannot vacate the spaces of political power, neglect opportunities in law or collapse ourselves over the imperfect compromises. We are acting now and preparing for later.

There is, again, talk of Trump allegedly planning amnesty. He's said explicitly that there is no offer of citizenship for migrant workers, and obviously the possible children of noncitizens are ineligible due to his birthright citizenship rule.

We should (reasonably, realistically, not hysterically) push back against suggestions that are too kind to foreigners. In this case, Trump's AGsec Rollins is proposing to make an 'expendable labour class' that business owners are responsible for, can lose at any time and must produce profit with.

can lose at any time
ICE director Lyons confirmed that work site operations are still active, for all industries. There is not an amnesty on the table; this proposal by Rollins attempts to address the difficulty that is cooperating with big businesses, who are quite influential, and transitioning us away from what has been 100 years of foreign-labour dependence.

Foreign labour comprises up to 70% of agriculture and over 30% of hospitality. Understandably, it is not a simple decision to just 'remove' the mass of a sector without having a way to wean it. That is the problem at hand, whatever solution is put forward has to end in their removal.

Joseph Goebbels in 1942: "There are still 40,000 Jews in Berlin. It's exceedingly difficult to deport them...a large part of them are at work in the munitions industry..."

An interesting historical anecdote. The NSDAP, which was far more aggressive and authoritative than the modern U.S. president can be, did not succeed in deporting all Jews, they had to make exceptions—because many Jews were needed 'in the labour pool'. Up to 40% in some areas stayed to work.

there is no offer of citizenship for migrant workers
Stephen Miller's presence over the administration, closeness to Trump, his legal dominance and multidepartment influence makes it improbable that there is any amnesty or bad decisions intended. That isn't to say we shouldn't push back, we need to speak out; we should monitor the situation with a realistic outlook nonetheless.

'The amnesty thing [Reagan] really screwed up. . . . Because of what Reagan did, California is a supermajority blue state. . . . Even if you don't give people the right to vote, it really distorts congressional apportionment and the electoral college . . . You're destroying the voting power [of Americans]'.

VP JD Vance explaining why Amnesty is never a good idea.
