Trump is Building A Global Gulag for Immigrants Captured by ICE
Nick Turse,  Staff Writer  -  The Intercept

_Stephan: Aspiring dictator Trump is reputed to read very few books, but the one he has clearly studied in Hitler’s Mein Kampf, since all the trends he has created to reshape the United States come from Hitler. Just as the Nazis created concentration camps in the countries they controlled so Trump, as this article describes, is creating an international a … ⌘ Read more

Rachel Savage and David Smith,  Reporters  -  The Guardian (U.K.)

_Stephan: Does it strike you as strange that while masked ICE and Homeland Security agents are pulling non-White immigrants from their homes, out of their cars, and off the streets, White immigrants from South Africa are being welcomed into the United States?

DHS requests 20,000 National Guard troops to help with mass deportations
Ellen Mitchell,  Senior Defense Reporter  -  The Hill

_Stephan: I have been waiting for this development in the Trump MAGAt coup, and now it is openly here.

Flawed Federal Programs Maroon Rural Americans in Telehealth Blackouts
arah Jane Tribble and Holly K. Hacker,    -  Med Page Today | Kaiser Family Foundation

_Stephan: I live on a rural island, and depend on telehealth sessions with doctors, because if telehealth ends, as the Republicans are trying to do, a 15-minute call would become a daylong trip to the mainland.  Sadly, even worse plans to extend internet access have not proceeded under Trump and th … ⌘ Read more

Tom Dreisbach,  Staff Writer  -  npr

_Stephan: There are a number of anti-semite serving in the Trump coup administration. But at the same time Trump has spent billions supporting Israel’s genocide of Palestinians and forcibly deporting pro-Palestinian college students.

Trump just uttered the most despicable lie pushed by GOP in decades
Thom Hartmann,  Contributing Writer  -  Raw story | Commentary

Stephan: Although Trump is a terrible multi-bankrupt businessman, as I have pointed out repeatedly, he has real skill with lying and manipulating media to focus on fake or irrelevant stories to avoid attention on the real stories. Thom Hartmann explains what I mean very well.
