Donald Trump, who rose to power in part by criticizing the foreign interventions and national security overreach of previous administrations, is now adopting, and in some cases intensifying, tactics reminiscent of George W. Bush's post-9/11 "war on terror," according to a new sprawling report by Axios.
The Trump administration has authorized mass surveillance, preemptive military strikes, and the use of both domestic and foreign high-security prisons for detainees, many of whom are undocumented immigrants. In some cases, these individuals are denied due process.
