It has taken medical science 200 years to advance humans to the point where people are so healthy and living so long that they can deny that science and medicine is what got us here.

There is a reason drumpf/Vance & Maga want to whitewash history. We repeat it when we forget. We get to go w racism instead of solutions.

In 1965, the government tried replacing migrant workers with high-schoolers. It was a disaster.

When the migrant-worker bracero program expired in 1965, the government recruited groups of high school male athletes to step into the fields. It was a disaster.

I don’t care what city or town you live in. If these guys jumped out of an unmarked van and grabbed you on the street, would you just assume they’re ICE or FBI? Would you willingly comply with their orders and get inside the van?

THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS.

THIS IS NOT AMERICA.

New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism

“'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.'

*More of this, please*"

You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a rancid bigot.

If ICE is on the up and up, why are they wearing masks, and sometimes not wearing badges? Democrats need to instigate investigations NOW!

"agents participating in a February raid in Tennessee did not have badges. "

www.timesunion.com/opinion/arti...

Commentary: If masks are wrong for protesters, how about for ICE agents?

Commentary: Sworn officers of the law should not be held to a lower standard than Columbia University students. Or are they ashamed of their actions?
