Since Trump is still deliberating how his deportation plans would go, here's a plan that he might look at, promulgated under Reagan but never used:

quote:

The 40-page memo described a government contingency plan for rounding up thousands of legal alien residents of eight specified nationalities: Libya, Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Tunisia, Algeria, Jordan and Morocco. Emergency legal measures would be deployed�rescinding the right to bond, claiming the privilege of confidential evidence, excluding the public from deportation hearings, among others. In its final pages, buried in a glaze of bureaucratese, the memo struck its darkest note: A procedure to detain and intern thousands of aliens while they awaited what would presumably become a mass deportation. Van Der Hout read the final pages carefully. The details conjured a vivid image of a massive detainment facility: 100 outdoor acres in the backwoods of Louisiana, replete with specifications for tents and fencing materials, cot measurements and plumbing requirements.[/quote]

[quote]The INS� multi-pronged proposals left little to the imagination, offering two options: a �general registry� and �limited targeting.� In its general registry scenario, the State Department would �invalidate the visas of all nonimmigrants� of the targeted nationalities, �using that as the first step to initiate a wholesale registry and processing procedure.� In its limited targeting scenario, the Investigations Division imagined a series of eight steps to expedite the deportation of the targeted nationalities. One was an executive order, requiring the FBI and CIA to share data with INS to locate alien undesirables and suspected terrorists. Another expanded the legal definition of international terrorism as a deportable offense; to speed the process, the measure would circumvent �proposed rule-making procedures, as a matter of national security.� The INS recommended holding aliens without bond, excluding the public from the deportation proceedings and convincing immigration judges to agree to those terms by referencing classified evidence.

quote:

Van Der Hout and a co-counsel, David Cole, now a professor at Georgetown University Law Center, became convinced that the memo was an uncanny outline of the government�s position and plan to deport the LA Eight�the �test case� which the document seemed to imply.

�They picked for arrest and deportation eight people who were essentially alien activists,� remembers Cole. �They sought to use classified evidence to detain them. [The memo] felt like a kind of blueprint for the case against our clients.�

The attorneys for the LA Eight were not the only ones to receive the leaked document. So did Stephen Engelberg, a reporter for the New York Times. His story on February 1, 1987, brought intense pressure on the INS. Beset by reporters at a news conference, William Odencrantz, a regional counsel for INS, was asked about the similarities between the case and the strategies described in the memo, and the seemingly political nature of the charges. �To use a football analogy,� Odencrantz told them, �we don't care how we score our touchdown, by pass or run. We just want to get them out of the country.�

I still find myself amazed that Trump's entire orbit is surrounded by the most horrible people on earth and yet that doesn't bother his voters, like you would think that the fact that educated voters are overwhelmingly voting for Clinton might send some alarm bells off to uneducated voters that support Trump that maybe there is a reason.

I consider myself fairly smart and educated but if I had say a medical question and almost every doctor had the same opinion on it I would defer to the medical doctors regardless of my own opinion, maybe they should consider that when Trump is completely surrounded by racist assholes he might be a racist rear end in a top hat as well.

The general public has no idea who Roger Stone is. Most people could not name anyone on either candidate's staff. Voters by and large have little to no idea what is going on.

That's a lot of the reason that Trump is popular. A lot of this country thinks that educated people and so-called 'experts' are always wrong, somehow.

one thing i find really amusing about weed culture in cali is how, though it cuts across class lines pretty well, the real differentiation is how its presented. because there are basically three kinds of dispensaries

- the low key place in a strip mall with a generic name like "RCN Providers" and a green cross in the window
- the upper crusty boutique dispensary out on a street like Ventura, thats still in a strip mall but has a name like "Compassionate Holistic Care of the Valley"
- the place that has a name like "BLOWIN' TREES 420 EVERY DAY" and will probably get closed down by the city in about a month

if youre a blue collar guy with a real medical problem youre using weed to treat, you go to the first place. if youre in SAG-AFTRA and live in Santa Monica, you go to the second. if you just plain dont give a gently caress, you go to the third.

mine is just a person's name but has three gates and barbed wire. it's extremely sketchy. i have no idea how they've been there for so long.

The whole reason trump was elected is because the right wing has switched from "limited government is good and common sense is sometimes better than statistics" to "GOVERNMENT IS BAD ALWAYS AND DONT TRUST DOCTORS AND SCIENTISTS AND REPORTERS AND POLITICIANS BECAUSE THEY LIE TO YOU"
