EVERYONE needs to see this.

A wire map of white supremacy in the Trump administration on immigration.

If you've ever wondered, "Where do all these horrible policies come from?" like #KidsInCages, #MuslimBan, ramped up #ICERaids, #DACA revocation, etc - you might think the evil mind of Stephen Miller.

But Miller's no immigration guru. He's had a LOT of help.
Hover over the names. Read about the connections and you'll see: we're not fighting Trump or Miller.

We're fighting a *movement.* A defined, purposeful movement that thrives on a diet of white nationalism, deplorables, and bigotry.

And we're about 40 years behind them.
Some names you'll know. Jeff Sessions, Steve Bannon, Steve King. Others, you might not: Robert Law, Julie Kirshman, Jon Feere.

These are the people who funded, created, and run the racist anti-immigrant movement, responsible for the deaths and misery of millions of people.
And John Tanton started it.

I've been trying to unseal the #TantonPapers for nearly 3 years. Tanton, the mastermind behind the modern anti-immigrant movement, was a white nationalist and eugenicist.

The most influential man you've never heard of.
Tanton died in July 2019, but his thought lives on. One of his co-founders called him a "dead cat that keeps poisoning the well."

We can't fight what we don't understand. That's why the #TantonPapers must be unsealed. His organizations have infected the current administration.
The movement has grown because they're geniuses at camouflaging their white nationalism.

They'll talk about the economy, jobs, border security. And they'll play up fear of an "invasion."

Tanton, in 1975: "build a wall" - sound familiar?
I recorded this video for @ajplus in 2018, and Tanton's orgs accused me of being a paid agent of the Qatari government sent to meddle in the midterm elections.

(No, I can't hook you up with World Cup tix)

They've grown powerful because they've operated in secrecy, and we've been subjected to 3 YEARS of nonstop execution of those policies formed over 40 YEARS.

When I followed their chief funding organization, @colcomfdn, they scrubbed their account:

TRANSPARENCY. That's what my lawsuit is about.

The main orgs:

@FAIRImmigration @CIS_org @NumbersUSA

And names like Dan Stein, @MarkSKrikorian @RoyBeck_NUSA.

If you take money from white nationalists, push their agenda, you don't get to hide in the shadows any longer.
