Trump & ICE are moving closer and closer to their vision of white supremacy.

Here's some of what's going on JUST THIS WEEK:
1) ICE is planning on using a recent ruling to pull children away from their families. They can #FreeTheFamilies at any time, but instead, they choose this: https://twitter.com/RAICESTEXAS/status/1278833545293844480
2) ICE is starting a "Citizen's Academy" in Chicago to train people on "firearms familiarization" and "targeted arrests".

They want to show civilians how to target, intimidate, and harm immigrants. This is, simply put, Nazi shit. https://twitter.com/A_Huebner/status/1280257924137390085
3) Trump & ICE are pursuing a policy that is transparently cruel: a ban on international students in the US if their schools move online in the fall.

This works for them in two ways: fans the flames of xenophobia, and pressures universities to open

4) Trump took another step towards ending asylum. There are a lot of details but the takeaway is: they want to effectively close the US to asylum seekers fearing for their lives.

These are all part of Trump's strategy to get his supporters excited by demonizing immigrants AND to distract from the fact that his actions on COVID have and will continue to kill hundreds of thousands of (disproportionately Black & brown) people in this country.
Trump & ICE want a white America. And they're moving closer every day.
We need everyone--particularly white Jews and other white people--to organize to reject Trump's vision. http://www.neveragainaction.com
