'Scandal of historic proportions': Outrage as baker deported over autism awareness tattoo
"'Renditioned' is the correct term for what happened," wrote Refugees International president Jeremy Konyndyk. "These were not deportations...these people were renditioned unlawfully to a gulag outside the reach of US law."

Today In Labor History March 26, 1910: Congress amended the Immigration Act of 1907 to specifically bar entrance of “paupers, anarchists, criminals and the diseased.” The amendment was specifically designed to limit entry of Eastern and Southern European immigrants, many of whom were becoming radicalized by the deplorable working and living conditions in late 19th and early 20th century America. The law came in the midst of a wave of anti-immigrant hysteria, whipped up by government and media-generated pro-eugenics propaganda. The original law included the following statement of “undesirables” to be prohibited entry into the United States: “All idiots, imbeciles, feebleminded persons, epileptics, insane persons, and persons who have been insane within five years previous; persons who have had two or more attacks of insanity at any time previously; paupers; persons likely to become a public charge; professional beggars; persons afflicted with tuberculosis or with a loathsome or dangerous contagious disease.”

A #Wildfire colleague of mine, who is quite conservative, just posted a rant on another platform about crowds in our National Parks. Then they literally said "US citizens should have the priority over our National Parks, foreign tourists need to be limited."
I find that kind of thinking to be pretty scary.
7.3: They Sent Us to Camp: My Family's Experience of Internment During WWII
If you meet a Japanese American, it’s also a pretty good bet, they probably won’t spontaneously start talking about what they or their family went through, how they feel about it, and how they or their family recovered from the ordeal.
I (Christina) wanted to rectify that by sitting down with my old friend Chie Furuya, whose parents (as tiny children), grandparents, and other family members were “sent to camp”, to ask her about it. The answers and stories she had for me were both fascinating and unexpectedly heartening. Her people are a resilient, cheerful people and I feel like there are life lessons for all of us here, in terms of withstanding and recovering from severe injustice (and coming out on top).
Ariel’s addition to this episode description is to point out that Japanese internment occurred in Canada in the early 20th century as well. We (by which she means Canada, or perhaps so-called Canada, as she likes to call it) aren't some bastion of anti-racism and tolerant plurality (if we ever were). Check out our blog post for links for further edification if you are interested or want to know more about the Canadian side of the story.

You may think you can make a home in Gilead but you are wrong.
Stay away, shun it if you can, let them retreat into themselves and suffer the consequences. It's not our problem.

While I typed this, A Dept of Homeland Security ad featuring Kristi Noem telling immigrants to self-deport came on NBC NY. Lots of money for xenophobic ads and actions, little to help the American people.

Kinda wish the UK's Travel Advisory on the US was a bit more than "if you break any laws, of which there are many, it's probably your own fault for not doing as you are told"
Reminder Becky Burke (who is safely back in the UK now) was disappeared for the crime of "doing the dishes at a house she was staying at"
Gilead is essentially rounding up Foreigners for profit, and other National Governments have no problem with this, do not want to comment on their citizens who have been abducted, lest they incurr the wrath of the Mad King

"It was after the state troopers who had pulled them over receded from view that Cassie said, “Well that was wild. He asked me ‘which do I prefer, Canada or America?’”
Maggie, who’d been taken to a separate cruiser for questioning, had been asked the same thing."
