In Move Recalling Nazi-Era Policies, Trump to Create Office to Track Crimes Committed by Immigrants
by mail@democracynow.org (Democracy Now!) from Democracy Now! on (#2ECAS)
During President Trump's speech to the joint session of Congress last night, he announced plans to create a new office called VOICE-that's Victims of Immigration Crime Engagement. Trump has previously directed the Department of Homeland Security to publish a list of crimes committed by immigrants-which some historians have compared to Germany's Nazi-era policy of publishing lists of crimes committed by Jews. We air Trump's comment and hear from Andrea Pitzer, author of the upcoming book, "One Long Night: A Global History of Concentration Camps."
