Yep, full on facist oppression

What I'm interested in is whether the right wing U.S. media darlings that are constantly humming the freedom rhetoric and calling Canada oppressive for our gun laws and handling of the freedom convoy are willing to take Trump to task over this as well.

I think it’s probably pretty naive trusting polls in America now.

Fixed

I was gonna say why should we not believe polls in America? Cause they often show Americans are dumb as ####? Feels like thats a highly accurate view.

NEW: The Trump admin has plans to send thousands of foreigners to Guantanamo beginning as early as this week, including citizens of close allies UK & France, with no intention of notifying their home governments in advance, per sources and documents

The preparations include medical screenings for 9,000 people to determine if they are healthy enough to be sent to the controversial base in the Caribbean. DHS intends to minimize the amount of time detainees are in Gitmo but the WH could decide to use it for longterm detention

The Trump admin says the plan is necessary due to a need to free up capacity at domestic detention facilities which have been flooded with new detainees. A US doc says “GTMO is not at capacity" (tho it has been plagued by capacity issues in the past).

Wtf?

[ResAlien]

Suppose it makes sense to concentrate everyone into camps

Any chance we can link to where we're getting this stuff from? It's obviously copied from somewhere.

I see it on Politico, The Independent, WaPo

It could be a strategy to entice or scare more people to self-deport.

I think Res was thinking more along the lines of Auschwitz, Daschau, Buchenwald.

If America is looking to boost tourism in that country they're doing a brutal job of marketing.

I can't see myself going there for a long time. What's the point?

Hmm. I have a Dutch last name and my forebears weren’t born here. Should I worry lol. The Netherlands is on the Gitmo list. Anything is possible at this point.

Only partly joking. What are “approved” surnames ?

[Winsor_Pilates]

Pretty good chance a Canadian ends up there too if this is happening
