Schumer: Reports of National Guard deportation plan 'despicable'By Jordain Carney - 02/17/17 11:18 AM EST
Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) blasted a report that the Trump administration is considering using the National Guard to round up illegal immigrants for deportation, a claim that the White House has denied.
"That's despicable," Schumer told reporters during a press conference on Scott Pruitt's nomination to lead the Environmental Protection Agency. "That would be one of the most un-American things that would happen in the last century."
He added: "I just hope it's not true."

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for meand there was no one left to speak for me.

Has to get back at him for making fun of him.
Bannon hopes this action starts a war of sorts so he can kill as many of us as possible and imprison the rest of us.
I started a thread on this elsewhere, but we need this posted everywhere because I believe it will happen at the same time of his rally.
