Do you ever wonder why they call the government taking land away from a private citizen by the term 'escheat?'

Because in this case Trump is CHEATING these people out of their land to waste our tax dollars on an utterly unnecessary wall.

Not only should this not be permitted, but all of the disgusting, illegal private for-profit concentration camps dotting our country to 'house' immigrants need to be SHUT DOWN.
