Had to dig out an old laptop for boring reasons, but when I opened it up, there was a link to [this New Yorker story from January 2018](https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2018/01/15/when-deportation-is-a-death-sentence):

Seems to be an abundance of ways we’re killing people by deporting them. Fuck Trump, fuck Stephen Miller and the rest of his racist minions and his toadies, fuck Mitch McConnell and the rest of the GOP Congresspersons who object to almost none of this.
