US Troops killed all the guards at Dachau for this kind of shit.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

The “Where are the protests?” lament after Trump’s inauguration was always based on a (willful) misperception. Over the past year, protests have been far more numerous, more geographically widespread, and more sustained than what we saw in 2017, for instance.

Q: "Why are culture and art important while the world is burning?"
A: "The world has been burning since 1492. Art and culture have been crucial for creating a sense of belonging, spreading radical ideas, resisting empire, imagining new worlds, building community, and helping you find your murder."

And just a reminder, there is legal US precedent from 2012 for the government killing Americans via drone strike. That was overseas, but still a precedent set that the Trump admin can now cite.
The new DOJ memo for implementing NSPM-7 calls for bounties and a network of informants: “FBI shall establish a cash reward system for information... [and] establish cooperators to provide information and eventually testify against other members and leadership of domestic terrorist organizations.”

The Trump administration ignored questions about whether it would order the killings of those on its NSPM-7 list — even while answering our other queries.
