“My friend told me to be careful because they are squarely picking up everyone, simply for having a Hispanic face.” Immigrant workers in DC say they find themselves at the center of two crackdowns: one on crime, another on illegal immigration. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/18/u...
Duh.
Of course they are, because it was never about the homeless or the crime.
This is horrible

I gathered together all the bits & pieces from various places over the past two weeks and consolidated them here. SHARE / RESTACK until you're Democrat blue in the face!
So it’s not immigration “takes key role” but feds use a crime crackdown as a pretext to kidnap innocent people.
Let's not call it a "crackdown." Maybe... "kidnapping for racism" or... idk I'm tired but we have already very clearly established that this has nothing to do with crime.

How ironic that the country that defeated Nazis
is now being overrun with them.
all while being supported by a country ( Russia ) that says it hates Nazis -
in Ukraine.
Oh, the irony.
Can anyone see, the irony?
*&^%%$#@ maga.
Thank you maga.
This one, an own goal, is ALL YOURS baby....
I’m in Canada.
Just watching tv I see so many characters on tv or in movies that would clearly be racially targeted in the USA (because they look Hispanic). It’s disgusting what ICE/Trump are doing.
Free DC workers from this lockdown!
Profiling is their joy
This is not a “crackdown”. This is a fascist demonstration intended to instill fear in the population

Zoe Gardner is the latest professional activist to sneer at working-class concerns about the migrant hotels.
Press misreports on ICE detainment, revealing troubling truths about illegal immigrant's past.
Your kindness is a key opening closed hearts. 🗝️
@jazmineulloa.bsky.social psst, neither "crackdown" is real, you don't need to be a fascist stenographer. Hope that helps!
This shit is tragic at an individual level and massively destructive to the social fabric of this country. Anybody who loves the US should be protesting and fighting this effort to destroy us as a country. Chinga la Migra and all the rest of you fascist goblins.
I hope people are helping people escape the Gestapo in cities where ICE is active.
Tell your Senator Tell your Congressperson This is not normal. This is not good. It’s not who we are. It's not who we want to be. It needs to stop. Do something! Or quit
Horrifying but this is a "crackdown" on neither crime, nor illegal immigration (which is um, a crime)?
This is just straight up normalising fascist flex. That's the reason, and the only reason, this is happening.
Last Trump administration it was the Muslims who had to lockdown for 4 years. Every administration got their sacrificial lambs. Jimmy Carter had the Iranians but they are our cardiologists now. Clinton had the Central Americans (ALL of them). Reagan didn’t appreciate the Blacks—>ANY of us

Every photo and video I’ve seen has been a black or brown person except for the guy who threw the subway sandwich

I am so sad for anyone of color, but what part of he is a racist that you did not understand... tRump & his thugs do not care about laws, they do not want people of color in this country. He is Hitler, that is why Neo Nazis, the KKK like him & vote for him.
The “crime” crackdown is 100% pretext for racial harassment. The quote reflects racism

Immigration Enforcement Takes Key Role in Trump’s D.C. Crime Crackdown

The crackdown isn't on illegal immigration. That's only the pretense. The crackdown is on (potentially) all nonwhite immigrants, regardless of status. It always has been about that.
