What's the slogan of every Republican supporting the right-wing communications strategy of amygdala hijacking?

And, to do that, they need to KEEP FEAR ALIVE.

George and Tracy, from Niagara Falls, Ontario, similarly said politics were a big factor in leaving their Florida home of 12 years for Campeche in 2022.
โWe knew after the first term that this was not going to be pretty and we knew [Trump was in again]. We had to get out,โ Tracy told CBC Toronto.
After many winters in Florida, John and Sharron, from Mississauga, say they started feeling apprehensive about the political climate in the U.S.
โThere were situations where we weren't welcome,โ Sharron said. โAs Canadians, we just didn't feel comfortable anymore.โ
So they changed their plans.

A growing number of Republicans have moved cautiously to signal their discomfort with the Minneapolis operation, including Trump allies, but they seem more intent on preventing voters from abandoning them before they are able to secure re-nomination for election to the next Congress.

The attacks were sold as against criminals, but legal immigrants even have been grabbed from citizenship ceremonies.

I agree.
I'd like to see control of the House lost by Republicans before Memorial Day, though. Trump and his unrestrained aides need to face investigation well before the midterms.
"Heavy-handed"?
Try UNNECESSARILY BRUTAL AND LAWLESS.
The ICE thugs, drawn from Border Patrol veterans and sketchier types like former insurrectionists and right-wing militias, and others attracted by white nationalist recruiting, appear to have been assured they would not be held accountable.

TRUMP IS DEALING WITH AN IMMIGRATION MESS OF HIS OWN MAKING
Trump's attack on immigration long has been one of denigration, bluster and extravagant promises.

On Tuesday, Amazon mistakenly sent an email appearing to refer to the layoff plan as "Project Dawn" โto some Amazon Web Services staff, unsettling thousands of workers.
The email...wrongly said that impacted employees in the U.S., Canada...had already been informed that they lost their jobs.
The company did not say what business units would be impacted, or where the job cuts would occur.
It also did not specify how many employees in Canada are impacted by the layoffs.
The latest reductions follow a round of job cuts in October, when Amazon said it was laying off 14,000 workers.
