S2 Ep1048: Jonathan Chait: House GOP Doesn't Care How Bad the Bill Is

They're charging a ridiculous amount for him to even use the phone to call her because it's a private prison that's monetizing all this. This is a fucking horrific story. And what it is is an example of just how inhumane the Trump immigration regime is across the board. There are elements of it that are racially motivated. There also are that is just a just blanket inhumanity.

And they're trying to reach their numbers. And the easiest way to reach their numbers is to take people who are doing things the right way, not criminals. It's hard to find fucking criminals.

It's easy to find people who just walk in the door. And so this guy is going to be sent back to Denmark. Who knows what happens to his family? It is despicable what it is doing. It is just fundamentally un-American what we are doing, this immigration regime. And so I was grossed out by it. And then like literally my entire reply chain from left and right was about how this guy's white.

It's like, oh, lefties being like, oh, well, it's a white guy, so the Trump people let him off the hook eventually. And then it's right-wing people being like, oh, I thought that we only deported brown people. See, we also deport whites. Hell yeah. And I just like... It leads to an unhealthy culture where you're centering the skin color above everything.
