Americans Targeted in Trump’s Immigration Crackdown

The Wall Street Journal found that “the Department of Homeland Security, created in 2002 to protect Americans, has turned its force against citizens.”

“Of the 279 people accused by officials on X of attacking federal officers in the past year, 181 were U.S. citizens, the Journal found. Close to half of those Americans were never charged with assault. None have been convicted at trial.”

“Yet names, mug shots and other identifying details posted by the government put a bull’s-eye on them. They had to explain the accusations to family, friends and employers. In a few cases, their home and workplace addresses were leaked online, drawing death threats.”
