Yeah, they're talking about deporting the children of undocumented immigrants.
Which if they are born in the United States are United States citizens. Which is important to remember. They're looking to deport people to countries they've never been to. Whose languages they don't speak. It would be one thing if they were talking about young children who still needed their parents. Yes by all means don't tear families apart is the Trump Administration previously did. But they are talking about the adult children as well. So it's particularly extra despicable.
I don't know why they even expect countries to cooperate with that shit. Why should Venezuela accept US citizens being deported into the country?
Because authoritarian regimes whether they are capitalist or leninist Etc don't ask. The people just show up there if they're lucky or in a mass grave if they're not. They're not asking Venezuela or any other country for permission to send people there. Honestly a lot of the time they just dump them in Mexico and let them be their problem. After all xenophobia isn't a responsible or rational response.
Mexico still needs to cooperate on some level to allow border agents to cross the border and dump ex-citizens.
Or I guess the US could just keep them in camps.
