So. Ukraine is fucked. Europe is less safe. Our former allies will never trust us again. They certainly won’t share Intel when the likes of Kash Patel are being floated as CIA director. Women in the US are even less safe than usual and they’ll die in record numbers 1/x

However bad you think the corruption and misconduct at ICE and CBP is — the reality is far far worse.

I'm working on a single graphic that illustrates how participatory propaganda becomes policy in the second Trump administration, particularly around the case of "They're Eating the Pets".
Still hoping we'll get to take that last label away before those ?s resolve.

![Title: “They’re Eating the Pets”: From Participatory Propaganda to Policy in Trump 2.0
Slide contains a graphic with arrows moving clockwise, suggesting a circular process. At the top, are about ten large bubbles with the label “GOP Political Elites”. At the bottom are about a hundred small bubbles, with the label “Audiences”. Up the left side are a series of bubbles of increasing size, labeled “Influencers”.
Arrow [1] runs from GOP Political Elites down to Audiences and has 2 labels:
Political elites on the right set an “anti-immigration” frame during the 2024 election.
JD Vance claims Springfield has been “overwhelmed” by Haitian immigrants [July 10, 2024]
Arrow [2] runs up from Audiences to Elites and contains 3 labels:
A Facebook user in Ohio shared her (false) suspicion that a neighbor’s daughter’s friend’s missing cat had been eaten by Haitian immigrants. [Sept 2024]
The story percolated up through online influencers.
Online activists created AI-generated images or “memes” of Trump saving pets.
Arrow [3] runs down from Elites to Audiences and contains 2 labels:
GOP political leaders repeated the claims and amplified the memes.
Trump repeated the rumor from the debate stage. [Sept 10 2024]
Arrow [4] runs up from Audiences to Elites and contains 2 labels:
Online audiences continued to engage, cheering the rumors on, repeating and retweeting.
“They’re eating the pets” became a meme and a jingle
Arrow [5] runs down from Elites to Audiences and contains 2 labels, highlighted against a white background:
Trump administration rescinds TPS status for Haitian immigrants (ending Feb 3 2026) [Nov 2025]
Trump administration begins detaining and deporting Haitian immigrants? [Feb ?? 2026]
There are two images on the side, screenshots from social media. The first is Donald Trump on a debate stage (from Sept 10, 2024). The second is a synthetic AI image of Donald Trump in a blue suit, carrying a cat, and running away from a group of brown-skinned men in the background.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:h3t5rqlvuaorq42yckpijirj/bafkreiggmmo32ws7eeuuttre3r4cwy7zt7ir43b7oi7eutlbk66xvqkvou@jpeg)

Mike Johnson always falsely states proposals he wants to bat down. No one has proposed that ICE agents wear their addresses. The proposal is that dress and act exactly as they did from the founding of the agency until Stephen Miller decided to give it a makeover

The relevant facts about Anne Frank that made her story resonate with so many for so long is not her immigration status in the Netherlands.
And the Haitians in Ohio that the US govt is preparing to target for persecution have legal status. So even by that standard, the Anne Frank analogy works.
