The hair-plugged illegal-alien South African Space Nazi and his incontinent orange Chia Pet have targeted another group of immigrants who don’t have the resources to defend themselves:
From the Courier Journal:
Immigrants across Louisville are receiving letters about the termination of their humanitarian parole visas, warning them to depart the country before April 24 or face “adverse immigration consequences.”
In late March, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security published a notice ending a Biden-era parole program for immigrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela, effectively removing legal protections for 532,000 people from the four countries.
The effort is part of President Donald Trump’s plan to severely curb the use of humanitarian parole, a long-standing legal tool presidents have used to let people temporarily live in the U.S as a reprieve from war or political instability in their home countries.
This is the fascist playbook in action. Go for the weaker segments of the population, and as the gullible MAGAt followers cheer the evil on, the targets get bigger until they engulf everyone.
And don’t think it’s just immigrants they’re after:
They’re targeting immigrants. They’re targeting the handicapped. They’re targeting children. They’re targeting the LGBTQ community.
First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me.
Those are the words of Martin Niemöller. He didn’t speak out when the atrocities of the Third Reich began, then when its abuses escalated, he was taken away for speaking out when the horrors were placed on something he cared about. The Holocaust Memorial Day Trust says, “he is a complicated figure. Initially an antisemitic Nazi supporter, his views changed when he was imprisoned in a concentration camp for speaking out against Nazi control of churches.” More from the Trust:
After meeting with Adolf Hitler in January 1934, Niemöller started to see the Nazi state as a dictatorship. Even then, although Niemöller criticised the German government for interference in religious matters, he did not criticise the discriminatory laws forbidding Jewish people from marrying non-Jews, and preventing Jews from having jobs in government. Niemöller himself held antisemitic views; in the 1920s and 1930s he referred to Jews as a ‘despised people’ and ‘Christ killers’. The only arguments he made were that Jews should be allowed to remain members of the church once they converted to Christianity, and that the German government should not interfere with the way churches were run.
Niemöller’s opposition to the Nazi regime’s rules for churches saw him arrested several times, as he became increasingly critical of the Nazis and Hitler. In July 1937 he was arrested again, held for eight months without trial, and re-arrested immediately after his release by the Gestapo, Germany’s secret police. He was then sent to Sachsenhausen concentration camp. At this point, these camps held political prisoners, in addition to those perceived as ‘threats to society’ such as Jewish people, gay men, Roma and Sinti people, and ‘asocials’ including alcoholics and beggars. In 1941, Niemoller was transferred to Dachau concentration camp, where he would spend most of the rest of the war. Finally, in 1945 he was transferred to another camp in Austria, where he was liberated by American troops in April 1945.
After World War Two, Niemöller repeatedly expressed regret at his previous support for the Nazi party, and his failure to oppose it more broadly. In 1945 he admitted he ‘never quarrelled with Hitler over political matters, but purely on religious grounds’. However, it is notable that the first public record of Niemöller apologising for his own antisemitic words and views was not until 1963 in a radio interview.
So, beware MAGAt sympathizers. Because when the time comes, your dear leaders will come for you.
