Just like Nazi Germany.
Bovino, the man overseeing mass deportations, publicly declared that we must all have our papers on us, at all times, or we could be stopped, harassed, kidnapped, and detained, as they did with the man in this case, who is a US citizen.

"Without Gutiérrez’s ID, the agents resorted to another approach. They took a photo of his face... “Oh yeah, he’s right. He’s saying the right thing. He does got papers,” Gutiérrez recalled the agents saying."

He was just walking home.

I love Kristi Noem insisting that no matter how insignificant the long past crime or messed up paperwork, people must be deported. The law is the law and there can be no exceptions.

But drug kingpins, rapists and wealthy fraudsters get pardoned because Trump feels they were treated "unfairly."
