I'm pretty sure there was a damaging mass deportation during the Great Depression that deported mostly american citizens to Mexico.
I feel like to the people doing the deporting this time, they wouldn’t care. The point is to be damaging.
Operation Wetback. Yes, that's what they called it
Operation Wetback?
Well see ya later, Melania
The Dark Ages truly are still here
Correct, in the 1930s, I saw someone post about it recently. I don't know the motivation then, but the tactic will be used this time to target any group. Maybe even used for "other activities" when deportation becomes logistically difficult.
