Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

It's not just the undocumented immigrants. It will never ever be only them. The pigs will round up everyone who they think looks foreign, whatever that means. Lock them up and let God sort out the details. Even if the pigs weren't racist (lol), they'd still have a small margin of error, and all of those false positives are Americans whose lives will be ruined.
It's simply irresponsible not to point this out, when the U.S. had this exact issue a century ago.
Any hints of where they are planning to bring these millions of people once they snatched them?
I think Texas has already volunteered land for camps.
and are there plans beyond camps on US soil? If they want to deport people, somebody‘s gotta take them
Camp in Texas on the Mexico border. Open a passage into Mexico. Problem solved!
“I have extended an offer to President Trump and incoming border czar Tom Homan to use this 1,400-acre property to construct a facility for the processing, detention, and coordination efforts of what will be the largest deportation of violent criminals in our nation's history.”
Buckingham said a facility built on this farmland recently bought by Texas will be the final stop for processing migrants before deportation.
She also promised more Texas land for mass deportation: “The new project that the General Land Office is going to bargain that I have created is the Jocelyn Initiative, in which we will locate appropriate land under my jurisdiction to lease for the construction of violent criminal deportation facilities.”

I only have the heart to read so much of this. My little family is white and we have moved to a safer state from the deep south. We're guessing we've got about a decade of safety before things get dangerous for us again.
Trying to strike a personal balance between being aware of safety concerns and not feeding myself large amounts of depressing info.
All the best for you and your family
