Rick Wilson - So Much for Fighting Communism

It’s official: the MAGA GOP, the party that wraps itself in the flag, thumps its chest about liberty, and rants endlessly about the evils of communism (all while Donald “I control the means of production” Trump looks more like a commie caudillo by the minute) has just decided to deport over over 300,000 people legally in the United States straight into the arms of tow of the world’s most repressive socialist regimes.

Cubans and Venezuelans, many of whom fled tyranny, jail, torture, and starvation, are now facing the MAGA express ride back to the hellscapes they risked everything to escape.

The Trump Administration, in its latest act of sadistic political theater disguised as immigration policy, has moved to revoke Temporary Protected Status (TPS) from hundreds of thousands of people who were told — many in the first Trump term — by the U.S. government that they could live and work here after fleeing the oppression, chaos, and brutal hardships of their homelands.

These aren't just anonymous migrants in a spreadsheet. They're families, workers, neighbors, taxpayers. And now, thanks to a toxic cocktail of cruelty, hypocrisy, and red-hat lunacy, they’re being handed deportation notices stamped with the Stephen Miller seal of approval.
