BREAKING: Donald Trump unveils a horrifying new fascist plan to deport American citizens to foreign prisons if they're convicted of a crime — stripping them of basic Constitutional rights.
This is so much worse than anything he's suggested before and it endangers us all...
"We could make deals where we'd get these animals out of our country and you know if you take the shooters, the people that hit old ladies in the back of the head with a baseball bat when they're not looking and walk down the street," said Trump.
"Uh, the people — and you see it — the people that take out a gun and shoot you for no reason at all," he went on. "If we could get these animals out of our country and put them in a different country under the supervision of somebody that made a relatively small fee to maintain these people because you know what? Uh, these are criminals."
"You call them 'hardened criminals.' They've been in jail forty times. There's one forty-two times and every time the person gets out — it's a he — every time he gets out he commits another crime within twenty-four hours," Trump claimed. "And it's a heinous crime. It's a rough crime. We don't want these people in our country either. We don't want them in our country."
Trump said that his administration is "looking at" the legality of the idea. Given his past behavior, he'll simply invent a legal basis and proceed even though it's blatantly unconstitutional.
He said that the process would cost a "fraction" of what it costs to house convicts in the United States which is likely true, but only because the prisoners would be subjected to utterly inhumane conditions.
Worst of all, Trump said that the foreign countries could simply "keep them because these people are never going to be any good."
Let's be totally clear about what Donald Trump is proposing here. He wants the power to strip Americans of their basic rights, rip away their citizenship, and lock them away in a dark hole somewhere else in the world.
This is pure, unvarnished fascism. Given his corrupt staffing of the Justice Department with MAGA loyalists, this could easily lead to innocent people getting railroaded by the Trump administration and shuttled off to die in a foreign prison.
The deep irony here is that Donald Trump is a convicted felon. He should be in prison himself, not floating ideas about mistreating other felons.
This heinous idea was first boosted by MAGA billionaire Elon Musk — the man who many are calling the real president — when he quote-tweeted far-right Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele's offer to house American prisoners "in exchange for a fee."
El Salvador has some of the worst, most overcrowded prisons in the world. And Donald Trump wants to fill them with American citizens.
