The Trump regime isn’t just sucking up to the anti-science crowd with its foggy messaging on vaccines. It’s promoting measles, which can be fatal, especially to children under age 5. I can’t say it any more plainly than this: Republicans are killing children.

This, from the Holocaust Memorial Museum.
There are three key facts in the Holocaust Encyclopedia produced by the US Holocaust Memorial Museum. This is the second key fact:

What distinguishes a concentration camp from a prison (in the modern sense) is that it functions outside of a judicial system. The prisoners are not indicted or convicted of any crime by judicial process.
