While the United States Armed Forces (private mercenaries) are stationed at 737 bases, in 130 nations around the world, defending “all freedom-loving people everywhere in the world,” Republican (fascist/socialist) President Trump talks to statute enforcement officers, in Ronkonkoma, new york, encouraging SEO brutality against Hispanics in general and suspected gang members in particular:

       For many years, they exploited America’s weak borders and lax immigration enforcement to bring drugs and violence to cities and towns all across America. …

       But from now on, we’re going to enforce our laws, protect our borders, and support our police like our police have never been supported before.  We’re going to support you like you’ve never been supported before.

       Now, we’re getting them out anyway, but we’d like to get them out a lot faster.  And when you see these towns and when you see these thugs being thrown into the back of a paddy wagon—you just see them thrown in, rough—I said, please don’t be too nice. {emphasis added)

       Florida Highway Patrol Major Mark D. Welch, commander of Troop H, in Tallahassee, issues an order to his statute enforcement officers, to issue two “traffic” (a legal term for goods, services, or persons in commercial “transit”) citations per hour.
