Trump Signalling Aggressive Action On Mass Deportation.

It would not be surprising that Trump and his boys are preparing for an aggressive deportation agenda. And it may go beyond just criminals. The real clash will come when Trump demands that police help ICE round up undocumented people. If present actions are any indication confrontation and turmoil is ahead. And I hope American citizens who resist stay safe.

We are near the Rubicon.

he is going to start doing torture on them? He is so much for torture that I just am wondering if that is part of his plan.

We are on really new ground with a POTUS who is serious mentally ill and even deranged. Plus we have a GOP that is happily going along.

who said I was overreacting about the Trump win in November. "He isn't going to deport anyone". HA! I told him I've been around long enough and know the Republicans will do their best to fuck everything up while slopping at the public treasury like pigs at the trough. Again.

9. I do wonder if he's gathering some muscle now - a new ICE guy who really likes to mix it up,

(the ousted guy was maybe a little "soft"?), and remember he dismissed the Commander of the DC National Guard the moment he was inaugurated? Maybe he was too librul for Pres. Bannon's tastes?

And he's apparently keeping plenty of his own security goons (not much firepower there, I know, but some major recruiting could happen?), and I wonder how many Blackwater mercs he can score at a righteous price from DeVos' bro Eric Prince (they come with their own ordnance!), and I wonder if he can deputize his bikers-for-trump boyz (they come with their own sidearms!) - and did you see the pictures from Standing Rock before winter set in?: all manner of mercs wearing jeans and tshirts, with bandannas covering their faces, toting rifles...and when the Bundy boyz are acquitted again, I wonder if they'll report for duty (yes yes, they're fully weaponized!) -

yeah, I wonder a lot, my Nemesis friend -
