Americans of Japanese heritage say they hear echoes of their families’ forced internment in the Trump administration’s newest immigrant detention site.
Homeland Security officials say Donald Trump’s sweeping mass deportation campaign requires a build-up of detention centers to bridge the gap between arrests and removals. They’ve turned to the U.S. military and private contractors to get the job done, including erecting the nation’s largest immigrant detention site on Fort Bliss in El Paso, Texas.
But stewards of Japanese American history, including the children and grandchildren of those who were held in detention, are criticizing the use of Fort Bliss and the plans to expand immigrant detention on American military bases.
If we ever get a real government again they need to seize all Trump assets and sell them as a starting point.
If we ever get a government again hopefully “assets” of the all of the capitalist class will be used to build a new democratic rule for the working class. There are a lot of debts to be paid to the people that built this country. Descendents of slaves and natives of this land especially deserve it. But the entire working class from the undocumented farm worker to the white hillbilly will benefit from a redistribution of this nations wealth to those that actually produce it.
