I really just can’t get over this. What POSSIBLE POLICY MOTIVATION could this serve? A traffic ticket from the Obama administration makes you MS-13 or some kind of dangerous criminal element? We can’t risk letting these doctors cure cancer, if they once went 63 in a 55? IT IS LUNACY

If an administration can get away with falsifying social security records to target individuals, then there is no bottom. There's also no such thing as a "citizen" because that can be changed with a couple button presses too. Mark your SSN and passport as dead then ship you to El Salvador.

i have argued before that MAGA is recapitulating antebellum pro-slavery ideas about citizenship and bodily autonomy. one thing i am also thinking about, when it comes to the rendition of people to a foreign gulag, is the way it is reminiscent of the kidnapping of free blacks for sale into slavery
