Of course.
None of this is or ever has been about crime, or even really about immigrants, undocumented or otherwise.
It is and always has been about establishing precedents by which to expand governmental authority.
What they're building is a system in which anonymous federal agents will be seen to have the right to black-bag anyone, regardless of whether they can be charged with a crime or not, and disappear them.
They started with undocumented immigrants justifiably accused of other crimes because that was the easiest case to be made both legally and popularly, but they never had any intention of stopping there. They're going to keep expanding until they reach the point that they can do it to anyone, any time, for any reason.
it's exactly how the OG nazis persecuted the holocaust's victims. They started small and built upon it. They didn't wake up one day and start gassing jews. They did it by taking one right away at a time.
Exactly, and the war crime killings of Venezuelans is NOT about drugs either. It is about stealing their oil.
