Brown skinned immigrants are not human beings to this regime. They are a pestilence to be gotten rid of -- invaders destroying America. Trump said "they are poisoning the blood of our country," which is exactly what Hitler said about Jews.

Let that sink in.

Ever since Trump came down that escalator in 2015, he has been demonizing brown skinned immigrants. Before treating these people as vermin, they must first be dehumanized -- seen as an invading threat, not persons deserving of basic human decency.

This isn't about keeping our country safe from drugs or criminals. This is racism, and the fear of changing demographics in an America where whites will no longer be a majority. It is the Great Replacement Theory.

The white patriarchy can't bear the thought of losing their privileged status and their grip on the reins of power. That explains why the struggle for civil rights and women's rights has been so long and hard, and why $billions are being spent on an army of brutal thugs to terrorize immigrants and communities that support their neighbors, friends, human beings.

Now this evil racist regime says it will send their ICE thugs to polling places to ensure "election integrity" because their political opponents can win only by cheating. This, of course, is another LIE in a long string of LIES, and PROJECTION of their own clear intent to steal this election.

What is the highest priority of every authoritarian regime?

To sieze, and hold onto power. They will do ANYTHING to ensure that.
