AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>As if Hegseth's plan for a portable military dictatorship wasn't bad enough, reports indicate the Pentagon is seriously considering a May DHS plan to effectively recruit 20,000 National Guardsmen into the Gestapo; an action that would give Trump, a fascist clearly trying to install a dictatorship, an effective standing army controlled entirely by the executive branch.

AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>One of the problems with doing antifascist analysis while the Trumpenreich appears to be going for the full Pinochet experience, is that whenever you're right about what these nazis are trying to do, it's no reason to celebrate. I wrote a bit about Pete Hegseth's recent testimony during a Congressional hearing and why what he described there means we might already be looking at the Klepto Kaiser's dictatorship in real time.</p><p><a href="https://www.ninaillingworth.com/2025/06/13/nina-bytes-a-portable-pork-reich-dictatorship/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">ninaillingworth.com/2025/06/13</span><span class="invisible">/nina-bytes-a-portable-pork-reich-dictatorship/</span></a></p><p>Nina-Bytes: A Portable Pork Reich Dictatorship</p><p>"To completely understand what Trump’s crusader Secretary of Defense is getting at here, you have to place it in the larger context of the regime’s fascist mass deportation project, and the conditions which administration officials, including President Trump himself have outlined to “justify” escalation and additional military involvement. Crucially, this includes accounting for the Trump regime’s ability to coordinate multiple security forces, including the ICE Gestapo, the Kash Patel-run FBI, and ideologically sympathetic local law enforcement agencies. With Hegseth’s proposal in place, and a little cooperation among Trump-loyal actors, the regime can both cause the inciting incidents that allow them to summon the Army to a given location, and then use those military forces to essentially enforce Trump’s (often illegal) policies even over the objections of local elected officials."</p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/StephenMiller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StephenMiller</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/InvasionOfLA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InvasionOfLA</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Dictatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Dictatorship</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/PeteHegseth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PeteHegseth</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/PoliceSstate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PoliceSstate</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/InsurrectionAct" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InsurrectionAct</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/USCongress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USCongress</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/CivilRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CivilRights</span></a></p>
AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>After Ferguson, the nationwide George Floyd protests, and now the invasion of LA, I've basically come to the conclusion that it is structurally impossible for corporate US media to properly describe and analyze any sufficiently disruptive protest movement, particularly if that movement centers the rights of nonwhite people in any meaningful way. Obviously the narratives that LA protests are a foreign "invasion," an "insurrection," or a threat to the government of the United States find their origins in fascist propagandists on the American right, but these narratives are then buttressed by a "centrist" media, particularly on television, desperate to sell the drama of an equivalent two-sided conflict between angry brown people and armored police state thugs of various kinds; even as that "centrist" media decries the fascist conspiracy theories their focus on transmitting a "both-sides" narrative works to enforce. You cannot thread the needle in a struggle between an ethnonationalist police state engaging in open fascist repression, and the response of labor class Angelinos to that fascist repression; even trying to do so does nothing but serve white supremacy and the violent security forces that brutally maintain it in America. </p><p>I say all this because as our public discourse is purposely shifted towards a conversation about whether or not the Trump regime was justified in activating the army to suppress protests in LA, with most people who aren't literal fucking nazis agreeing that he was not, we've lost track of the conversation about whether or not the LA protests were themselves justified in the first place. Spoiler, they were. But by starting the conversation with Trump's fascist mobilization of military forces, a subtext that the LA protests themselves were the problem emerges, even if that is not actually the intention of the media organizations presenting that narrative. The reality that the invasion of LA started with fascist ICE workplace raids on Friday, and the feds absolutely deployed flashbangs and fired "nonlethal" ammo at the nonviolent (but not peaceful; why would they be peaceful?) protestors first, fades into the background of a debate about separation of powers and executive branch rights, when it is far and away the most important part of the story of the Trumpenreich invasion of LA.</p><p>Well, whatever the opinion makers and narrative writers want to do with the story of the invasion of LA is beyond my power to control, but I'm not just rolling over for this bullshit. I stayed up way too late last night cleaning up two stories about what I think are the outrageously fascist activities of the Gestapo in LA on Friday, that rightfully pissed Angelinos off enough to take to the streets and vigorously, but nonviolently protest; specifically the militarized nazi workplace raids on Friday, and the assault, arrest, and smearing of SEIU president David Huerta. I believe that once you understand why Angelinos were protesting in the first place, everything that happened afterwards, including the ongoing military occupation of an extremely small part of downtown LA, cannot be blamed on the protestors; the fault clearly lies with a fascist Trump regime who planned this exact scenario out in advance, and local California officials who not only did nothing to protect their citizens from militarized Gestapo mass kidnappings in broad daylight, but now seem determined to prove their own security forces can violate the rights of Angelinos just as well as US soldiers can, so Trump's assistance is not needed. </p><p>I don't have the time, energy, or platform to shout down a craven, or complicit (depends on the target audience) corporate media complex, but I'll be damned if I'm going to pretend Angelinos opposing fascism are responsible for whatever violence you're seeing on your TV screen. Consider this my very small contribution to the cause of resisting the manufacture of consent for fascist, often racialized, state repression.</p><p><a href="https://www.ninaillingworth.com/2025/06/12/recommended-reading-origin-stories/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">ninaillingworth.com/2025/06/12</span><span class="invisible">/recommended-reading-origin-stories/</span></a></p><p>Recommended Reading: Origin Stories</p><p>"Ask yourself how you would feel and how you would respond, if this was happening in your community.

Don’t let a cop-hugging white supremacist establishment convince you to take your eye off the ball because of some grafitti and some burning robo-taxis.

AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>While even veteran observers of Trump's atrocious fascist agenda in action can become numb to the raw amount of violence, criminality, and repression this regime engages in, sometimes a Trump 2.0 era headline will punch you in the mouth with a raw, and visceral reminder of precisely how horrifying and evil America has become during the Kelpto Kaiser's second act. Words cannot begin to describe how uncomfortable it makes me to see the Trump regime's cracker nationalist mass deportation scheme so interwoven into our everyday lives that the government is proudly keeping score on the number of migrants detained by the American Gestapo.</p><p><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jun/05/trump-ice-arrests-immigration" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theguardian.com/us-news/2025/j</span><span class="invisible">un/05/trump-ice-arrests-immigration</span></a></p><p>Ice makes record number of immigration arrests on single day</p><p>"Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) made a record high number of arrests on Tuesday, detaining more than 2,200 people as Donald Trump’s hardline immigration policy continues.</p><p>NBC News reported that the figure represents the most people ever arrested by Ice in a single day.</p><p>Hundreds of the people arrested were enrolled in Ice’s alternative to detention program, under which migrants who are awaiting legal status are given background checks to determine they are not a safety risk, then tracked by the government using ankle monitors or smartphone apps.</p><p>The record total comes after senior officials over the weekend instructed rank-and-file Ice officers to arrest more people, even without warrants. In May, the White House demanded that Ice arrest 3,000 people a day."</p><p>To put it blunting this shit is racist, dystopian, and if it isn't illegal it absolutely fucking should be. If this doesn't make you want to see ghouls like Stephen Miller and Kristi Noem punished for crimes against human rights and a supposedly free society, you're probably reading the wrong blog. I'm not sharing this story to make you angry however; I have a greater purpose here.</p><p>The backdrop behind this repugnant milestone in what amounts to a type of ethnic cleansing, is the same broader discussion we've been having about ethno-nationalism, regime propaganda about violent migrant criminals, and how the gap between who Trump says he's targeting, and who the Gestapo detains debunks every reason the Trumpenreich has offered for its mass deportation program. Ratcheting up ICE's arrest quota by 300% has made it impossible for even a credulous American establishment to pretend this is about public safety, or removing violent criminals from the country; and the nazi chucklefucks running this cracker nationalist shitshow have admitted as much internally.</p><p>"Some of the arrests “appear to be the result of a new Ice tactic”, NBC News reported, in which Ice officials arrest migrants who are enrolled in the alternative to detention program when they arrive at pre-scheduled check-in meetings at Ice offices.</p><p>“[With] mass arresting of people on alternatives to detention or at their Ice check-ins or at immigration court hearings, the dragnet is so wide that there’s no possible valid argument that could be made that these individuals are all dangerous,” Atenas Burrola Estrada, an attorney with the Amica Center for Immigrant Rights, told NBC News.</p><p>The Guardian reported that on Saturday senior Ice officials urged officers to “turn the creative knob up to 11” when it comes to enforcement, including by arresting undocumented people whom officials may happen to encounter – here termed “collaterals” – while serving arrest warrants for others."</p><p>This is of course in addition to unconfirmed reports that Stephen Miller himself yelled at DHS officials last week to demand the Gestapo stop focusing on just "criminal" migrants; which if true, makes it abundantly clear that the regime understands the rhetorical two-step they're playing here as part of a broader project to whiten US population demographics. Folks we're arresting asylum seekers reporting for monitoring, refugees who just lost protected status by Presidential fiat, and migrant mothers with American citizen infants; nothing about this has anything to do with fighting "crime" or keeping anyone "safe." It could not be any clearer that when this regime says "criminal" they mean "undocumented" and when they say they're acting to keep the public safe, they mean "from brown people existing at all." </p><p>And given that this is so obvious, why is anyone still pretending otherwise? The Trump regime's mass deportation scheme is very clearly a type of ethnic cleansing project designed to produce a whiter America and it's probably only a matter of time before some nazi figures out bullets are cheaper than airplane rides. At what point are we as a nation going to accept that this is how the Third Reich and the horrors of the Holocaust happened, and collectively stop pretending this is immigration policy? I hope the answer is soon, because it does no good to realize the truth after we're digging up mass graves.</p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ICE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ICE</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/DHS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DHS</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/StephenMiller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StephenMiller</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/KristiNoem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>KristiNoem</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/EthnicCleansing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EthnicCleansing</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/MigrantRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MigrantRights</span></a></p>
AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>While I think anyone still arguing that the Trump regime is not fundamentally fascist in nature is engaging in one form of motivated reasoning or another, I still believe it's important to remember that this particular fascist movement remains firmly grounded in American historical, ideological, and cultural experiences at its core. Indeed, almost every aspect of Downmarket Mussolini's fascist agenda and the methods by which the regime is attempting to conduct it, has an administrative precedent in US political history; although that precedent will almost always come from the most reactionary and objectively shameful activities our government has ever engaged in. You don't have to take my word for it: Trump regime minions on your TV and Justice Department lawyers in court openly admit as much regularly.</p><p>There can be no doubt that Trump minions like Stephen Miller and Pam Bondi, are cribbing from America's white supremacist, anti-labor, anti-civil rights history; with a particular focus on the Second Red Scare, the Nixon administration's war on Civil Rights activists and student protestors, and the Bush administration's War on Terror. This synthesis of reaction, oppression, and executive overreach has allowed the Trump regime to create what many identify as a "new form of McCarthyism" empowered by the legalist logic and nativist, white supremacist sentiments underpinning America's "counterterrorism" apparatus, mass surveillance systems, and the national security state; by freely applying the almost legally meaningless "terrorist" label to protestors, student activists, and undocumented migrants, this administration has sought to render the judiciary and even the entire US Constitution, irrelevant.</p><p>Of course, none of this is happening in a vacuum, and a fascist Trump regime seeking to enshrine an executive branch dictatorship is fully aware that civil society will eventually understand what they're doing, and fight back. To prevent this they need a skeleton key to enable the active suppression and criminalization of dissidents, opposition groups, and civil rights activists the fascist right broadly classifies as "the radical left." Unfortunately if recent work to connect the dots in the second Trump era are any indication, the regime has already found that key in legally conflating opposing a genocide, with supporting Hamas; and its doing so by design in yet another scheme brought to you by the architects of Project 2025. If the opening salvos of Trump's war on American civil society can be describes as a "new McCarthyism" then I think it's fair to say that the Heritage Foundation's "Project Esther" can be best understood as the Trump regime's "new COINTELPRO." </p><p><a href="https://truthout.org/articles/project-esther-is-a-mccarthy-era-blueprint-for-crushing-the-american-left/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">truthout.org/articles/project-</span><span class="invisible">esther-is-a-mccarthy-era-blueprint-for-crushing-the-american-left/</span></a></p><p>Project Esther Is a McCarthy-Era Blueprint for Crushing the American Left</p><p>"Mainstream coverage of Project Esther has largely framed the document as an effort to crush the pro-Palestinian movement. It’s important to emphasize, however, that the threat Project Esther poses to the left more broadly is not a byproduct — it’s part of the plan’s core design. The text lays bare the McCarthyist nature of this political moment and underscores the urgent need for the left to mount a multipronged, coalitional defense.</p><p>At the center of Project Esther’s crosshairs are the people and organizations it dubs the “Hamas Support Network,” or HSN, though there’s no evidence that the entities it’s targeting actually support Hamas, or that they are even organized in any sort of a network. The playbook proposes a slew of recommendations for dismantling this fictional network, including deporting international students, purging pro-Palestine faculty from educational institutions, defunding organizations, increasing criminalization and promoting social ostracization of people that speak out in support of Palestinian rights. “Within the United States, the HSN receives the indispensable support of a vast network of activists and funders with a much more ambitious, insidious goal — the destruction of capitalism and democracy,” Project Esther claims."</p><p>Folks, after four months of watching the Trump regime pretend we're at war with a gang and opposing genocide is "materially supporting terrorism," I think we're past the point of pretending these guys aren't serious about the plans they wrote down and are clearly enacting now that Trump is president. Project Esther is the logical extension of every argument ghouls like Stephen Miller, Pam Bondi, Kristi Noem, Tom Homan, and Seb Gorka have been making on your TV for weeks. They want to use FARA and RICO Act prosecutions to dismantle every aspect of organized resistance to Trump's fascist agenda under the guise of fighting "terrorism," and they are being quite clear that they consider opposition to capitalism and the American state to be fair game under that rubric. </p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ProjectEsther" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProjectEsther</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/HeritageFoundation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HeritageFoundation</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/McCarthyism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>McCarthyism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/COINTELPRO" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>COINTELPRO</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Activism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Activism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Left" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Left</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/PoliceState" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PoliceState</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/StephenMiller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StephenMiller</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/PamBondi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PamBondi</span></a></p>
AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>As the Trump regime welcomes 59 (specifically) white South African "refugees" to the United States, most corporate media outlets are (accidentally or otherwise) obfuscating the fascist ideology behind Trump's only asylum exemption by describing the situation as "baffling." The reality however is that in actively favoring and financially supporting white South African migrants while denying all other asylum claims, Trump is governing by nazi conspiracy theory and exposing the white nationalist agenda behind the regime's immigration policies. </p><p><a href="https://truthout.org/articles/trump-is-bending-the-refugee-program-to-fit-his-white-nationalist-agenda/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">truthout.org/articles/trump-is</span><span class="invisible">-bending-the-refugee-program-to-fit-his-white-nationalist-agenda/</span></a></p><p>Trump Is Bending the Refugee Program to Fit His White Nationalist Agenda</p><p>"Trump’s executive order prioritizing South Africans under the refugee program is likely due in part to his close relationship with Elon Musk. The billionaire SpaceX CEO grew up in a wealthy family in apartheid-era South Africa and has publicly claimed that white South Africans are persecuted for their race. Peter Thiel, another one of Trump’s far right billionaire backers, also spent years in apartheid South Africa and has praised that system.</p><p>But Trump’s fixation on Afrikaners runs deeper than his political allyships: For years, Trump has indirectly platformed the “white genocide” conspiracies of South Africa’s far right. That rhetoric — recently manifested in concrete policies and actions — lays bare the white nationalism at the heart of Trump’s agenda."</p><p>If you've been following my other account, you already know I've had some words for the mainstream media coverage of this event, so I'll keep this part brief. The fact that the vast majority of news outlets aren't expressly reporting that Trump is arguing that a years old neonazi conspiracy theory is true when he directly says the US government is intervening because white South Africans are the target of a "genocide" is absolutely fucking outrageous. Simply repeating the racist lies powerful fascists utter and hoping the reader will figure out this is nazi conspiracy shit straight from the front page of Stormfront is not fucking journalism, it's stenography. As the author of this piece demonstrates, a little bit of research exposes that Trump is literally governing by nazi conspiracy theory.</p><p>"Fringe panic about a “white genocide” in South Africa gained mainstream prevalence during Trump’s first presidency, when right-wing groups pushed the lie that a string of murders on commercial farms was disproportionately targeting white South Africans. Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson helped sensationalize these claims at the time, boosting stories about South African farm attacks alongside inflammatory rhetoric about undocumented immigration in the U.S. and a domestic “fertility crisis.” As many analysts pointed out, Carlson’s favored talking points echoed the “great replacement theory,” the white supremacist myth that white U.S. citizens are being systemically erased by people of color."</p><p>As the article points out, the existence of a "white genocide" in post-apartheid South Africa is literally a cracker supremacist conspiracy theory promoted by a racist organization in South Africa; it's not real, far right politicians in the Pig Empire are treating years old, sensationalist white nationalist propaganda (that wasn't believable even in the moment) as if it were the gospel truth, and the whole thing was thrown out of court in South Africa because again, it's a nazi conspiracy theory. Stormfront posters and racist Tucker Carlson conspiracies are now governing White House immigration policy.</p><p>Which brings us to the larger, overarching meaning behind this sham "refugee" program; namely that the Trump regime's immigration policies are blatantly white nationalist, and clearly an extension of the administration's fascist quest to support global white supremacy while transforming America into a white ethnostate. If banning asylum claims from countries full of predominantly brown people, while paying real cash money to lure South African migrants and promote a nazi conspiracy theory about post-apartheid "white genocide" didn't prove the point, the contents of Trump's original executive order allowing this fascist bullshit probably should. In denying all aid to South Africa, Trump's order directly railed against reparations-style land redistribution policies, and South Africa's case against Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza; it's not hard to see the white nationalist animus behind these arguments, but when Trump goes a step father and directly supports the "white genocide" nazi conspiracy theory when explaining his policies, we're well past the realm of plausible deniability here. It is not enough for Trump to permanently enshrine white nationalism in American policy, this administration is determined to enforce white supremacy on a global scale. </p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Immigration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Immigration</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/SouthAfrica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SouthAfrica</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/TuckerCarlson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TuckerCarlson</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/NeoNazis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NeoNazis</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/WhiteNationalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WhiteNationalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Refugees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Refugees</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/StephenMiller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StephenMiller</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/CosnpiracyTheories" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CosnpiracyTheories</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ElonMusk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ElonMusk</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/PeterThiel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PeterThiel</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ForeignPolicy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ForeignPolicy</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Racism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Racism</span></a></p>

AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>Over the course of both Trump administrations so far, I've always felt that one of the easiest ways to spot the odious fascist inclinations of the regime is to observe the Trumpenreich's malevolent disdain for, and gleeful desire to harshly police, migrant children. No matter how wrong a person is about immigration policy, there's a demarcation of human decency line that should come into play before you decide to take out your nativist authoritarian fantasies on innocent children who're in the United States through no real fault of their own; yet in Trumpworld that line simply doesn't seem to exist. </p><p>Take for example the news that Trump's DHS and the ICE Gestapo have been tracking "unaccompanied alien children" with an eye towards deporting or prosecuting them, under the guise of benevolent "wellness checks" and yet another far right conspiracy theory about child trafficking.</p><p><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/28/ice-unaccompanied-immigrant-children" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theguardian.com/us-news/2025/a</span><span class="invisible">pr/28/ice-unaccompanied-immigrant-children</span></a></p><p>Ice seeking out unaccompanied immigrant children to deport or prosecute them</p><p>"Although DHS is characterizing the welfare visits as benevolent, an internal Ice document accessed by the National Immigration Project advocacy group and then shared shows Ice is also seeking out children who came into the US alone as immigrants – and their US-based sponsors – for immigration enforcement purposes and/or to pursue criminal prosecutions. The recent operations and document confirm a February report from Reuters, that the Trump administration has directed Ice to track down and deport this group.</p><p>Meanwhile, in Donald Trump’s second term, legal services provided to unaccompanied minors have been slashed and funds are not flowing despite court intervention. And the federal agency monitoring unaccompanied immigrant children has begun sharing sensitive data with Ice.</p><p>The Ice document shows “ it’s not just about checking in on kids, making sure that they can account for them and that they’re not being exploited”, said Michelle Méndez, the director of legal resources and training for the National Immigration Project. “It shows they have other goals, and the goals are criminalization of the kid or criminalization of the sponsor. It’s backdoor family separation.”</p><p>Look, I don't know about you but I definitely remember a time when Americans were up in arms because Trump was separating migrant families in detention and essentially trafficking children to Christian American foster families. So for the Trump regime to be working on a backdoor way to deport unaccompanied migrant children under the guise of fighting a made up reactionary moral panic about stopping "child trafficking" under Joe Biden, is both nauseating and outrageous. I can think of dozens of more appropriate government agencies than DHS and ICE to monitor the welfare of what amount to child refugees, but it's irrelevant because the Trump regime's own internal documents say they picked the Gestapo because they want to deport literal children. I don't know who needs to be told that a government pretending it cares about helping and protecting migrant children while simultaneously slashing all the programs that would actually do that is lying, but clearly that's what's going on here. These people are fucking heartless animals; and I don't mean the kids.</p><p>It should also be noted that here again we can observe the same "inversion of purpose" the regime has been using to justify enacting other aspects of its authoritarian Christian Nationalist agenda; for example transforming the Department of Justice's civil rights division into a vehicle for state prosecution of white grievance, or arguing that illegally kidnapping anti-genocide protestors on behalf of our bloodthirsty client state Israel is actually "fighting antisemitism on college campuses," and so forth. I'm sure it amuses Stephen Miller, Trump's unofficial Secretary of Nazi Shit, to no end that he's able to weaponize the language of tolerance and equality to straight up do state-sanctioned white supremacist dictator shit and enforce mass acceptance of the regime's fascist "unreality."</p><p>Finally I would encourage folks not to sleep on the fact that ICE's own internal documents are instructing agents to target, um, children with “gang or terrorist ties/activities.” Even setting aside the fact that the regime is implying literal children might be a national security threat or in a nacro-terrorist organization, we already know the Trumpenreich is prepared to accuse anyone they don't particularly like of being in a terrorist gang so they can traffic them to a torture prison in El Salvador without due process. I can't say why the regime wants to mark again, literal children, as narco-terrorists but given the fascist bullshit they're already using that designation to accomplish, I can pretty much guarantee you it won't be anything good. </p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ICE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ICE</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/DHS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DHS</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/MigrantRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MigrantRights</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Children" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Children</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/UnaccompaniedMinors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>UnaccompaniedMinors</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/WhiteNationalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WhiteNationalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ChristianNationalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ChristianNationalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/StephenMiller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StephenMiller</span></a></p>

AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>Another consistent feature of the American war on migrants, is a sort of fascist two-step surrounding the term "criminal." Typically, and even long before Trump, white supremacists in government office will justify hunting down and brutally suppressing migrants by claiming that they are only going after dangerous "criminals," often while invoking largely isolated stories of migrants committing violent crimes, to generate the necessary fear and outrage needed to maintain public support for these policies. The reality however is that once you see the system functioning in real time, the "dangerous" or "violent" part stops mattering, and folks end up being targeted for minor offenses, or even the civil "crime" of overstaying their visas in the United States; particularly under right wing reactionary governments, but even more so under the Trump regime and the modern fascist GOP.</p><p>Take for example the recent news that nearly forty international students had their visas cancelled and were ordered to leave the United States by the Trump administration for minor civil offenses, including in one case, a speeding ticket.</p><p><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/07/trump-student-visas-deportation" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theguardian.com/us-news/2025/a</span><span class="invisible">pr/07/trump-student-visas-deportation</span></a></p><p>Deported over a speeding ticket? Dozens of US students’ visas abruptly revoked</p><p>"Lisa is one of several students across states who found their legal status revoked by the US government on 4 April, without prior notice or clear explanation. University statements show that at least 39 students have been affected, including UC Berkeley, UCLA, UC San Diego, Stanford, Ohio State, the University of Tennessee, the University of Kentucky, Minnesota State University and the University of Oregon.</p><p>An online self-reported data sheet created by affected students suggests the issue may be more widespread. Students from 50 universities reported their visas were canceled around 4 April, with many noting that they had prior records, some limited to citations or non-criminal offenses.</p><p>This secret wave of revocation came a few days after the US secretary of state, Marco Rubio, announced the revocation of 300 or more student visas. “We do it every day. Every time I find one of these lunatics, I take away their visas,” he said at a news conference on 27 March, referring to students he described as national security threats.</p><p>Lisa’s university had included a screenshot of her Sevis record in the message. Termination was logged on 4 April by a system administrator, with a note: “Individual identified in criminal records check and/or has had their VISA revoked.”</p><p>Please keep in mind here that I couldn't find any evidence, anywhere, that the students targeted in this story participated in anti-genocide protests or any activities Downmarket Mussolini has defined as "anti-American." The purpose here doesn't appear to be a question of ideological policing, or political reprisals - this is the regime deporting foreign students because it hates foreign students and ruining these young people's lives helps the nazis make their nativist deportation quotas. The only relevant "crime" any of these folks committed appears to be that they were foreign students who could have their visas revoked and then be deported under the guise of purging the US of foreign "criminals." </p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/DHS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DHS</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ICE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ICE</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/StephenMiller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StephenMiller</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Immigration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Immigration</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/WhiteNationalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WhiteNationalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/BorderImperialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BorderImperialism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/StudentRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StudentRights</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Nativism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Nativism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Xenophobia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Xenophobia</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a></p>
AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>One of the most important necessary illusions to maintain (largely bipartisan) public support for the American war on migrants, is the idea that the fascist repression structures used to target brown noncitizens are only been used on "bad hombre" criminals who have snuck across the border for nefarious purposes. Bizarrely, this delusion remains popular with a US public that would rather not see how the sausage is made, even as the Trump regime actively targets migrant communities in America who have been granted state protection, are seeking asylum, and are otherwise "playing by the rules" that supposedly justifies brutalizing anyone who isn't following "the process" to enter and reside in the United States.</p><p>For example, since Trump took office back on January 20th, 2025, the regime has revoked the protected status and demanded the "self-deportation" of hundreds of thousands of law abiding immigrants registered with and monitored by government programs designed to curb illegal entry into the United States by offering a legal pathway to residency; including many people who are residing in America precisely because US foreign policy and exploitation has rendered their countries of origin objectively unsafe to return to. These folks aren't drug smugglers, or coyotes running undocumented people across the border, they are for all intents and purposes refugees created by US imperialist policy and they are precisely the kind of migrants apologists for our fascist deportation regime claim won't be targeted - a fact that has changed drastically under the tender mercies of Trump's unofficial Secretary for White Nationalist Shit, Stephen Miller. </p><p><a href="https://apnews.com/article/immigration-cbp-one-trump-biden-border-95b89a3bb0859ec8b6a39f2eef78f672" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">apnews.com/article/immigration</span><span class="invisible">-cbp-one-trump-biden-border-95b89a3bb0859ec8b6a39f2eef78f672</span></a></p><p>Trump’s DHS revokes legal status for migrants who entered the US on Biden-era CBP One app</p><p>"CBP One was a cornerstone of the Biden administration’s strategy to create and expand legal pathways to enter the United States in an attempt to discourage illegal border crossings. By the end of December, 936,500 people had been allowed to enter with CBP One appointments at border crossings with Mexico. President Donald Trump ended CBP One for new entrants on his first day in office, stranding thousands in Mexico who had appointments into early February.</p><p>Trump has ended and revoked temporary status for many who benefited under Biden’s policies. Homeland Security said Monday that Biden’s use of parole authority — more than any president since it was created in 1952 — “further fueled the worst border crisis in U.S. history.”</p><p>Homeland Security said last month that it was revoking another form of parole for 532,000 people from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela who flew to the country at their own expense with a financial sponsor. It ends April 24.</p><p>The Trump administration has also announced an end to Temporary Protected Status for 600,000 Venezuelans and about 500,00 Haitians, though a federal judge temporarily put that on hold, including for about 350,000 Venezuelans who had been scheduled to lose TPS on Monday. TPS is granted in 18-month increments to people already in the U.S. whose countries are deemed unsafe for return due to natural disaster or civil strife."</p><p>Ultimately I chose this story to demonstrate how week after week, the Trump regime is quietly enacting an immigration policy designed to produce and entrench an American white ethnostate, and by and large this news doesn't really penetrate the public consciousness. When you combine the figures provided in this article alone, we're talking about the rapid expulsion of almost two million people who are objectively *not* the bloodthirsty "illegal" predators the regime claims these policies are designed to stop; newsflash, hardcore narco-terrorists don't register with the US government via phone app when they arrive in America. They are however nonwhite people Stephen Miller can parade in front of an extremely racist American public in a sort of fascist theater show designed to assure crackers that the government is "keeping them safe" from people with the wrong skin tone. Furthermore, despite what the Trump regime would have you believe about deterrence, anyone who has studied the history of US immigration laws can tell you that shutting off the legal pathways for, again, what amount to refugees of US imperialist policy, to enter and remain in the United States will simply *increase* the number of undocumented people who sneak into the country illegally. The conditions that caused them to flee to America aren't going to change, migrants just aren't going to register with the US government anymore because it means inviting DHS and ICE to pick them off as low hanging fruit to make the white nationalist regime's quotas. </p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/StephenMiller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StephenMiller</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Migrants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Migrants</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Immigration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Immigration</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/DHS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DHS</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/MigrantCarceralComplex" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MigrantCarceralComplex</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ICE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ICE</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/WhiteNationalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WhiteNationalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Ethnostate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Ethnostate</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/WhiteSupremacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WhiteSupremacy</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Imperialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Imperialism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/BorderImperialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BorderImperialism</span></a></p>
