Summary

Asian American groups are preparing for potential deportations of undocumented Chinese nationals, particularly military-age men, under Trump’s proposed immigration policies.

Sources indicate Chinese nationals may be prioritized due to alleged national security concerns, reflecting broader anti-China sentiment.

Community organizations are creating multilingual resources, coordinating legal support, and educating families on their rights.

Trump’s rhetoric ties Chinese immigrants to fears of espionage, intensifying anxieties.

Advocates highlight the historical targeting of minority groups during national security crises and warn of significant impacts on vulnerable communities, urging solidarity and swift action.

      I’d say the constitution means he can’t do that… but…

      The Supreme Court is basically Trump

        There is a part in the consistution that says you are a citizen if: A or B and C. Birthright comes from A, where as people who travel to the USA need B and C, and people believe that means A or (B and C).

        Trump wants it to be (A or B) and C.

      Yeah and then? Where are you going to send them?

      You can’t just toss them on a plane to Mexico, Mexico will send that back. These aren’t Mexican citizens, that’s now how this works, that’s not how anything works.

      So what is it going to be? Greenland?

        Applying reason and logic to their actions is a mistake. iirc, when we did it to the Japanese-Americans, we just detained the ones we couldn’t deport, and just kinda held them…

          That is what will happen in the end.

          The cost of housing the 20 million people he wants to deport will be beyond astronomical and bankrupt the US within a year
