President Trump has signed three more executive orders, further cracking down on the rights of immigrants and asylum seekers. One order seeks to compile a list of so-called sanctuary cities that refuse to cooperate with Trump’s mass deportation policies.
A second order further militarizes local police departments, while providing legal resources to officers accused of abuses; it also seeks to undo federal consent decrees for departments that have committed civil rights abuses and seeks to punish local officials who “unlawfully prohibit law enforcement officers from carrying out duties.”
A third executive order requires professional truck drivers to be proficient in English. On Monday, staffers placed signs on the White House lawn showing mugshots of immigrants, linking them to crimes with the word ”ARRESTED” written in all caps.
This comes as House Republicans have proposed a bill that would charge people arriving at a U.S. port of entry $1,000 in order to file an asylum claim — and a $3,500 fee for those sponsoring children. The right to seek asylum is a fundamental human right enshrined in international law, and the U.S. has never before charged petitioners.
Have the Americans, (Canadians, Australians) not been educated about history? WWII? Your grandfathers fought and died in the trenches in WWII to save you from fascism. THEY FOUGHT AND DIED. WTF??
Oh we all have.
Remember skinheads and how they aren’t seen anymore?
Ok so well You know how sometimes you see those white guys who are incels and get SUPER DUPER into WWII history and then pop out later saying they think hitler ‘had his reasons’ to do what he was doing and start rationalizing genocide because the world ‘isn’t fair to white guys anymore’.
and they have a fascination to end woke cuz they think that’s what took all their privilege over everyone else away. They see being educated about WWII being bad as being ‘woke’. And this all used to be the 12-15 yr olds playing 1942.
Yeah… so they infiltrated the conservative parties in all western countries right now and fighting to bring back facism. Conservatives you’ll notice is a conglomerate now and it’s rife with infighting because you have the old school conservatives that never went this way and it’s been flushed in with these scary beings they don’t want to piss off. That party would decimate if either side leaves too cuz they’d never have this win over the liberals should they divide again. So they are at odds with each other : pwn libs at the cost of constitution or certain demise?
You’ll notice There is a distinct homogeneousness to the conservatives in all countries right now too.
It just so happens to be on the heels of propaganda fake overs on global social platforms such as x and Facebook. Which just so happens to be the exact CEOs that showed up to the inauguration.

Trumpers have outright said they don’t care if he breaks the constitution. They are nazis. They want this.
They’ve been further educated by the “internet” and now believe they had the wrong allies.
Also our grandparents:
They did mention 100,000 antifascist protectors outside that day. 5 times the number of the members of the organization. It is something at least.
If Adolf Hitler were alive today, he would be friends with Donald Trump.
I saw this posted somewhere else. Really distressing. I am so appalled. It’s like nothing has changed, nothing has been learned from history. What the hell is wrong with human beings?
Thank you, UltraGIGaGigantic, for this information. I was completely unaware. So, I guess hate is just part of the human experience.
welcome to the reality of humanity. but we can change it. most behavior is learned. we could easily teach new generations love and compassion but that will never happen until every sociopath and idiot on this planet is eradicated. do you want this cycle to continue endlessly? no? then wake up. nothing gets better until there is a global purge.
Yeah, honestly the US really didn’t want to take sides. A shocking number of Americans supported Hitler. But then the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and that sort of unified the country to fight on the anti-fascism (antifa, for short) side of the war.
Wow. Kind of like the conservatives were WAY ahead in Canada, until Trump started talking about annexing our country. Suddenly we were united. I read somewhere that the only way humans would unite is if there was a common threat, like a huge asteroid heading for us that would annihilate the human race. We would work together. But after the threat was gone, I’m sure we would just revert back to our awful, hateful, human condition. Humans truly are a cancer.
We literally had a common threat facing the world five years ago and humans were not united. I’m pretty sure an asteroid level threat would have similar consequences.
A common threat like climate change has not been very effective sadly.
Agreed. But the climate change isn’t affecting the wealthy, other than making them more money. Where I live, in B.C., some people are now unable to get fire insurance due to fires, others are unable to get flood insurance due to “atmospheric rivers”, which causes unnatural flooding. I’ll bet the major stockholders of the insurance companies have no problem with their insurance policies. Humanity is not being threatened with immediate impending doom. Just a long slow extinction.
Have you by chance read the comic Watchmen?
I touched in on it a bit during my studies :)
Don’t forget the New Guard in Australia, who put on a big show at the opening of the famous Sydney Harbour Bridge

I just don’t understand. What the Nazis did to people, to children? What the US is doing to people, to children? Sending innocent people to an El Salvador prison. I don’t understand why anyone would vote for this.
They are GIDDY with appreciation. It’s a saying now with the Trump nuts I work with. ‘‘Hope they send him to El Salvador’’ whenever someone cuts them off. The cruelty is the point. No more being scared or intimidated by brown people, they no longer have human rights!
Omfg that’s messed
did you just get here? yes. cruelty is the point. stop trying to understand. the only thing you need to know is ‘guns’.
My great-grandfather was there on D-Day.
A good portion of his descendants are hard Trump supporters and are pro-nationalism and pro-fascism.
Glad he’s not around to see his family literally turn and support the very things he fought against.
It’s always been part of the human experience. Some wacko decides they’re going to control the world.
