It figures that "remigration" is a term that comes from German neo-Nazis. The actual, historical term for what they propose is "repatriation " Specifically, forced repatriation. Germans have bad memories of that term, having been among it's principle victims, as post-war Germans were forcibly removed from what had been legitimate German national territory but Joesph Stalin had decided should now be a part of Poland and the Soviet Union. So they were forcibly "repatriated" to within Germany's new, smaller borders.

I wonder what it was that made AfD decide that this notion needed a rebranding? Was it the bad PR associated with the old term? Or did they just not like the reminder that they owe as much to Stalinism as their odious Nazi ideology?

Just a quick question; ‘Will the Secretary of State have to remigrate himself? And if the answer is yes, could he expedite the remigration? Maybe even Superexpedited remigration please?’ Thanks

Trump is perfectly welcome to remigrate himself and various spawn to Hell, since that seems extremely likely where they originated. He can take Stephen Miller and JD Vance with him. Perhaps they could negotiate a group rate on the fare? I understand Trump fancies himself some kind of fantastic "dealmaker."

In my opinion, the majority of racism really just boils down to a fear of competition.

Which is funny, coming from the supposed "master" race.

When Sir Paul McCartney raises a solidarity fist to the crowds that always surround him, it's a celebration of love and peace. When Trump does it, he looks like he needs an enema to get the shit moving out the right end. Pitiful.

Germany is a lot closer to The Hague. Let's remigrate Trump.

Anyone else notice that every time Trump Co mentions how many ill-eagles we supposedly have, the number gets larger?

I mean, wasn't it 11 million just a year ago?

He never knows what stats he's quoting. 11 in L.A., 50 total U.S. And if my sanctuary city welcomes them, he can count it as ZERO here. We had great protests all up and down the Front Range of Colorado today. Peaceful with police on the side and not agitating people like Trump's federalized Gestapo on the west coast. But he likes to break things so he can pretend to fix them. Asshole.

Especially if they’re related to bonobos, who have some…..interesting….ways of resolving conflicts.

It kinda adds a new spin to “Make love, not war.”

I try to keep up with Trump bullshit but also need to keep my sanity, and my sanity is not doing so well these days.

OMG, I hear ya. I would so love to duck out of all this and wander off into my world of gardening, books, and kitten videos (don't tell my cat - she wouldn't understand), but I am also terrified of missing something vitally important and being caught unprepared.

I sorely miss the bygone days when even though I covered politics, I could ignore it once I got home and not worry about waking up in some fascist dictatorship with gestapo empowered to do literally anything their dear leader desired, including disappearing people off the street in Soviet-style kidnappings.

How is it that Sir "Hit Back Ten Times Harder!!" expects anyone Sir attacks to instantly take a knee and beg mercy?

They think Seattle burned to the ground 4 years ago. Same with LA. That's why it doesn't make sense. How could LA rebuild in 4 years, and then, wait for it, burn to the ground, again???? It's almost like the plot of a hollywood reality show. Just wait a minute, none of this makes sense, the USA has jumped the shark.

Pull back the camera and it makes even less sense! The CIA conducts "third-party actions" to train militaries in Nicaragua, Panama, Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador to kidnap, torture, and kill insurgents suspected of destabilizing Central America. Reagan sells arms to Iran to fund and arm the Contra insurgents in Nicaragua. People all over Central America take their families and flee to the United States for protection. MS-13 comes into existence to protect the Salvadorans including the ones in America where home-grown gangs like 18th Street, Bloods, and Cryps are attacking them. Trump promises to round up MS-13 members who are whacking little old ladies on the head and stealing their purses, and instead sends Venezuelans to CECOT because it was a political talking point in the 2024 election and he needs to double down to prove his lies were true. Now he want to pick up a big military broom and sweep everyone back to Central America. What's wrong with this picture????? TOTALLY FUCKED UP BY OUR OWN POLITICIANS SINCE THE 1950s. These are people's lives, for God's sake.

Funny, my first thought was “that’s some straight-up Final Solution-type nazi shit”, but the fact it came from Shitler himself—although it has fucking Miller’s stench all over it; no way his boss could come up with a word with that many syllables—prolly influenced my impression somewhat. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Spray-hair Goebbels probably bears responsibility to it, and will own up to it until he’s in the dock.

Nazis in America; sedition; Congressional malfeasance; circumvention of judicial norms; the constant lies and misdirection. This sounds all too familiar as a similar Plot Against America in the 1930s is well documented by Rachel Maddow in her podcast "Ultra". Check it out!

It’s nice that they’re taking the mask off and no longer pretending that it’s about “illegals” any more. Wonder how Little Marco will react when it’s his turn to be remigrated.

Some folks knew that AT THE OUTSET and tried to warn everyone but - as per usual - WHITE PEOPLE DID NOT WANT TO HEAR IT.

General question for White people, for real -- and y'all really should remember that nobody was White before they GOT TO THE AMERICAS; before that you were various versions of European --

are you so adverse to hearing the truth from Black people and people of color that you have to "wait till the Nazis 'take the mask off'" to believe what we were telling you this whole time in time to take optimal / appropriate action
