Put the wolf in charge of watching the sheep

This that crap they do where you hear about trafficking and rape by ICE. Honestly, it seems that everything Trumpus does is for the sole purpose of preying on people. Everything.

Isn’t it crazy to think that literally every announcement of one of Trump’s picks to take over this department or that department brings “concerns” from so many other people?

Trump doesn’t care about hiring the right person for the job, and for America.

You rarely see this under other presidents.

Republicans really, REALLY fucking hate kids.

But they will damn well make sure women are forced to have them.

“This appears to be the first time an ICE official has been hired to lead the refugee resettlement office, former administration officials told ProPublica.”

Who’s fucking naming these things refugee settlements?

So internment camps? Refugee Resettlement what a load of horseshit.

helenofwhat.bsky.social•26 days ago

This was a real office that was working to help refugees. Like everything else, theyre turning it against the people it used to serve.

marcyf.bsky.social•26 days ago

Agreed. They aim to redefine what ORR is for. They want to ignore international norms around refugees just like they have with asylum seekers.

the post I quoted is deleted now, but it was about the DoD calling up Crisis Action Teams to staff Guantanamo immediately to hold migrants.

Off US soil where they no longer have to follow US law.

I mean…it’s been in existence since the 80s. Lord knows what these guys will do with it but - “offers support for refugees seeking safe haven within the US, incl victims of human trafficking, those seeking asylum from persecution, survivors of torture and war, and unaccompanied alien children”

“Re-fucking-settlement”?

mstjtou.bsky.social•26 days ago

They're going to steal the children.

chaosexplained.bsky.social•26 days ago

Ripping children from their families, weaponizing bureaucracy against the most vulnerable—this isn’t policy, it’s cruelty. The people enabling this must be held accountable. We cannot look away

mariceann.bsky.social•26 days ago

Child trafficking next?

wuzzupg.bsky.social•26 days ago

Human trafficking more likely, I’m afraid 😫

bikeguy2024.bsky.social•26 days ago

Demand ICE follow the LAW - DUE PROCESS!
