Trump team wanted to declare immigrants dead to force them out

Somehow I think they want to do more than judt declare them dead.

Not surprising.

Words have never mattered to Republicans except as a weapon. If they could declare themselves dead to avoid consequences while still keeping their status and power, they’d do it in a heartbeat.

“We have no idea where those people or their children went they’ve been declared dead for months!”

Schofield described one meeting in which a DOGE official revealed the goal of such a cruel plan: to make immigrants so miserable that they would self-deport or try to visit a Social Security office, where they could be arrested.

Not sure I follow how that works. Is he referring to naturalized citizens?

Fuck republicans to the highest of Fuckativity!

Seems like that’s the step right before killing them.

The SSA’s website says that the effects of being wrongly included in the DMF can be “devastating to the individual, spouse, and dependent children.”

When you’re completely comfortable dehumanizing people.
