Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing other users of being bots or paid actors.
- No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do.

For reference, the population of the USA is approximately 350 million. That's a pretty significant chunk.
Also for reference, 100 million doesn't correspond to the number of immigrants, but does correspond to the number of non-white people.
They're actually talking about ethnic cleansing.
…Was all I needed to know this was about race.
This is like a shitty comic book plot. Fuck these fascists.
Soon to be Bo American (and proud of it).
Restaurants are going to really suck after their ethnic cleansing plan.
The number of Democrat voters also. Could be a political cleansing...
yeah so think of every 3 or 4 people you know and toss one of them. That is chilling. I live in a complex with several buildings so just blast one of the buildings right out of existence. The fact they mention texas though makes me think this is all eventually going to be turned around action wise to elections. Texas wants to make their vote based on land rather than population so that dense urban centers can be disenfranchised.

That's not far fetched at all. It was only in 1964 that SCOTUS ruled that state legislatures had to use districts of approximately equal population. Other forms of districting were ruled to violate the Equal Protection Clause. It wouldn't even be that hard for today's SCOTUS to strike this down, as the Equal Protection Clause, due to its generic language, tends to provide the weakest protection of any constitutional protection.
Nearly a third, of which ‘illegals’ constitute a fraction of the 100 million goal. The answer is plain to see, esp when considering the reich’s current push to obtain voter data to help populate the central database that is integral to this effort.
My money is on ‘unreliable voter’ as the through line that will connect those that are taken and at the very least harassed and abused by law and/or financial enforcement officers.
That would be absolutely amazing - the whole US economy, imploding in 1 day.
Hmm... Best I can do is Ghana.
