        Camp in Texas on the Mexico border. Open a passage into Mexico. Problem solved!

        “I have extended an offer to President Trump and incoming border czar Tom Homan to use this 1,400-acre property to construct a facility for the processing, detention, and coordination efforts of what will be the largest deportation of violent criminals in our nation’s history.”

        Buckingham said a facility built on this farmland recently bought by Texas will be the final stop for processing migrants before deportation.

        She also promised more Texas land for mass deportation: “The new project that the General Land Office is going to bargain that I have created is the Jocelyn Initiative, in which we will locate appropriate land under my jurisdiction to lease for the construction of violent criminal deportation facilities.”

        I only have the heart to read so much of this. My little family is white and we have moved to a safer state from the deep south. We’re guessing we’ve got about a decade of safety before things get dangerous for us again.

        Trying to strike a personal balance between being aware of safety concerns and not feeding myself large amounts of depressing info.
