What they hate is lack of hierarchy.
What they envision is a system of tiered citizenship with legal impunity for the top tiers and more restrictive laws for the bottom.
They don't want to deport all the low wage workers. They want to allow them to be controllable as slaves.

I and millions of Americans believe exactly the same thing Kasparov does.
Too many troops, too many new prisons, too much money not under Congressional supervision.
We're not just witnessing a mass deportation scheme anymore.
This is something significantly bigger and scarier.

Now we learn from Reps of both parties who saw the unredacted Epstein files today that Trump, Bondi, & Blanche are covering up the absolute worst things in the Epstein files to protect the wealthy, powerful and politically connected. DOJ is being run by criminal co-conspirators.

Then top administration officials intervened and ordered them to stop, triggering a wave of resignations in the process.

Imagine if I was running for, say, the school board in your town, and it came out that I had been very close friends with Jeffrey Dahmer for years. I partied with him, stayed in close touch with him, introduced my friends to him. Then I later argued "I had no idea what was going on in his house".

Never forget:
In 2013, long after Epstein was *convicted of enabling child prostitution*, Elon Musk emailed him "What day/night will be the wildest party on your island?"
