Concentration Camps? Trump Is Taking US To An Evil Place - by David Cay Johnston

Every American, including native-born whites, should be alarmed about the advancing Trump administration plans to build mass detention facilities, which could fast be turned into concentration camps to hold opponents of Trump policies.

Abundant signs reveal Trump administration planning for mass roundups. News of these plans is out there but easily missed in the endless flurry of stories about Trump White House chaos. This story needs, but has not received, focused attention from our mainstream news media, from the minority party and especially from principled Republicans.

The Trump administration acknowledges planning on mass detention camps designed, initially, to hold 20,000 people.

Much more disturbing is a U.S. Navy memo obtained by Time magazine that outlines plans to build concentration camps to hold 94,000 people in California alone. When Time reporters sought comment the Navy’s top spokesman, Capt. Greg Hicks said, “It would be inappropriate to discuss internal deliberative planning documents.”

The official statements and the memo, whose contents the Navy did not deny, show that the Trump administration is preparing to round up as many people as it suspects because they are not Anglo or African American, but appear to be Latino or Middle Eastern.

3. Everyone needs to take this warning VERY seriously

And we need to do everything we can to stop these roundups at the border NOW --

not just because of the humanitarian imperative, the cruel and fascistic separation of families, the lawbreaking aspect of not allowing legitimate asylum seekers to even enter the legal entry points for that,

but because allowing it to continue AT ALL normalizes it, and paves the way for exactly what David Cay Johnston is suggesting.

FURTHER, to the extent it's normalized -- and/or Trump can distract us and the news media enough -- we won't even know it's going on.

I knew immediately when we first learned about this that we had reached a tipping point -- a place we desperately needed to avoid going forward from. And the more Trump is able to stuff the courts, the stronger the danger.

Mark my words, and PLEASE do all you can to stop these roundups.
