Kia ora,
The Trump administration is currently consolidating power in a manner reminiscent of Hitler’s actions in 1933. ICE is now being compared to the Gestapo in the United States. There is a concerning judicial takeover underway, along with media control.
Trump has been weaponising law enforcement and purging the state, army, civil service, and judiciary, replacing them with party loyalists to ensure loyalty to the leader rather than the rule of law. Justice in the US is now being used as a tool of repression. ICE is operating outside legal constraints, carrying out arrests, surveillance, and violence against political opponents.
Trump’s rhetoric and scapegoating, such as his claim that “immigrants are poisoning the blood of our country" are not indicative of a healthy functioning democracy.
This is fascism, and we can resist it here in New Zealand right now by signing this petition. We believe that Trump and the US do not deserve to host the FIFA World Cup. Please share the petition again. We need more support.
