    If you are brown and have a mexican sounding name, you aren't an American.

    Real Americans came as italian and irish immigrants. But not mexican.

    Now targeting and kicking U.S. Citizens off of Social Security. Of course, starting with those who are Hispanic.


    Trump Kicks Citizen Off Social Security in Anti-Immigrant Purge
    Donald Trump has sought to punish immigrants by booting them off Social Security.

    Donald Trump revoked a U.S. citizen’s Social Security benefits in the hopes he would leave the country.

    A man who became a naturalized citizen shortly before Trump took office received a letter on February 13 from the Social Security Administration informing him that he was losing his Social Security and Medicare benefits, The Bulwark reported Friday.

    “We cannot pay you benefits because you are not lawfully present in the U.S.,” the letter obtained by The Bulwark reads
    . The man’s English-speaking family appealed the letter, reversing the decision, but his case is yet another reminder that the president isn’t afraid to weaponize the federal programs in his war on immigrants … or really anybody he wants out of the country.

    Last week, multiple news outlets reported that the Trump administration entered the names of more than 6,000 immigrants into the SSA’s “death master file,” stripping them of their legal ability to work and receive benefits in the U.S. (Meanwhile, Elon Musk continues to claim federal safety net programs are rampant with fraudulent information, such as incorrect death dates.)

    “This is an outrageous abuse of power. It will not only create extreme hardship, but kill people,” Nancy Altman, the president of the advocacy organization Social Security Works said in a statement. “Imagine, in one Trump administration keystroke, losing your income, your health insurance, access to your bank account, your credit cards, your home, and more.… When Social Security incorrectly declares someone dead, it ruins their lives.”

    The Bulwark’s report comes as Trump takes his deportation threats to a new level. The Department of Homeland Security is sending letters to U.S.-born immigration attorneys telling them to leave the country immediately, and last week, Trump mused about the possibility of sending American citizens to megaprisons in El Salvador, a stark reminder the president will stop at nothing to rid the country of his adversaries.
