Latinos beware. Citizen or not. Trump is coming for you and your family with volunteer militia ... reminiscent of the 1955 #OperationWetback. These volunteers will be high strung racists who don't care who they hurt. It's all a part of #Project2025.

This happened during Operation Wetback in 1954, and what the U.S. learned was that we needed workers—and eventually invited them back.

Migrant workers, both documented and undocumented, are not showing up for work because they are increasingly fearful of immigration enforcement actions, such as raids or deportations.

While I was doing some research for a piece on Trump's #operationaurora I came across this excellent article by @erinblakemore.bsky.social on Eisenhower's #massdeportation of Mexican nationals in 1955. There are strong echoes of #OperationWetback in Trump's plan. www.history.com/news/operati...

In the past, they called it OPERATION WETBACK. Now, it's called MASS DEPORATIONS 🤔From experience—a troubling first-hand account of our detainment by US Customs & #Border Patrol. 🔴WATCH VIDEO: youtu.be/p7I4SuaUlSw?...

🧠 If You Think It Can’t Happen Here—It Already Did Think civil rights violations can’t happen in the U.S.? They already have—again and again. 🧠📜 Read this history we were never taught so we don’t repeat it.

Yes-as a #MexicanAmerican, I think about this. My grandpa lived thru #operationwetback. They picked up brown people and asked questions later. Yes, even US citizens were picked up. My kids have a #tribalcards and Real IDs. Hopefully that’s enough. #resist, #fightfascism
Reports are coming in that Trump-era ICE agents have arrested even American-born citizens during raids. If you’re just heading to work or the grocery store, how would you prove you’re an American? This is getting out of hand—Americans have a right to privacy.

#OperationWetback on steroids. A situation entirely of Trump’s making. He’s a sadist. Because the cruelty’s the point.

If one racist prick does it, can another pumpkin-spiced racist dick copycat? This close-minded fool is referring to #operationwetback

JUST THE NEXT PHASE OF THE PREMEDITATED OVERTHROWING THE GOVT VIA HERITAGE ORDERS TASK TO BE DONE BY WHITE HOUSE

#OperationWetback just like Eisenhower
Concentration camps on American soil. Masked agents terrorizing our neighbors and abducting people off the streets to fill them.

As if that weren’t horrific enough—some so-called “Christians” are cheering it on like it’s some kind of twisted, dehumanization porn.

What the hell have we become?

Trump and Miller are comparing their deportation strategy to #OperationWetBack of #DwightDEisenhower

I swear to the purple pumpkin conservatives think weird!

Trump promises to deport all undocumented immigrants, resurrecting a 1950s strategy − but it didn’t work then and is less likely to do so now

It might only be slightly less appalling if #Trump actually had concepts of a plan for somehow executing a Day 1 #OperationWetback —Google it—2.0 & dubiously invoking the 1798 #AlienEnemyAct. The latter was last used during a World War to wrongfully imprison my parents & grandparents born in the US.

We’ve seen this before and it was OperationWetback. It’s about to get dark around here as they purge brown people from the country.

Do Fox and the Trump cabal have average Americans so numbed to the injustice of it all that they will just tolerate this? This is gonna make #OperationWetback look like a garden party before Noem, Homan and Miller are through.

This isn't how a well-functioning democracy is supposed to operate.

Trump was a kid when the first #OperationWetback happened …

7/ The wankstain vows mass deportations, targeting millions of undocumented and documented immigrants, with Gitmo as a concentration camp. Fear grips immigrant communities, and critics call it inhumane. We’ve done this before—then begged them back. Look up #OperationWetback.

As a Mexican American (in California), I’m telling my sons to always carry ID. This is crazy. My grandpa used to tell me about #operationwetback. They took citizens and asked questions later. These actions always turn into racial profiling and increased racism. America is crumbling.
January 24, 2025 at 9:20 PM
Latinos, this isn’t the 1st time mass deportations have happened. My grandpa told me about #operationwetback. US citizens were taken, too. He was scared to go out (he was a citizen).They deported first & asked questions later. We all look the same to them, bc WE ARE the same. Support each other.
