Homeland Insecurity

The article discusses the escalating attacks on immigrants by the Trump administration, focusing on the deportation of individuals who previously utilized the CBP One app for legal entry into the US. These immigrants, who had followed established procedures for seeking asylum or other forms of legal status, are now being subjected to expedited removal proceedings. The administration's actions are described as a reversal of previous policies and a deliberate attempt to sow fear and chaos within immigrant communities. The article argues that these deportations are occurring without due process, effectively denying individuals the opportunity to present their cases for asylum or other forms of relief. The article contends that this policy shift is part of a broader strategy to demonize immigrants and justify increasingly repressive measures. It further links the administration's actions to the interests of the capitalist class, suggesting that the attacks on immigrants are designed to divide the working class and drive down wages. The article concludes by calling for the defense of democratic rights for all workers, regardless of immigration status. find the original article here: https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2025/04/09/mksw-a09.html
