As sources say Trump could deport undocumented Chinese first, Asian American groups rush to prep - eviltoast

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.

    Also construction contracting too. Get your roof replaced and you will see crews of very efficient Latinos doing the work.

        This sentence caused me to imagine a scene where Trump is tiling roofs. He is not even a felon yet (I think?) but I will keep my hopes up.
