Enjoy: fly fishing, the awesome photographs of nature and animals posted by the talent here, satire (political or not), food/foodies. Believe in: science, education, healthcare. Nope: MAGA, felons holding office, billionaires running our country.

“.. They are the asylum seekers, the rule followers. They go into the federal building holding papers .. hoping for a measure of due process. Some leave the courthouse with a hearing date set months or years from now. Others disappear into ICE’s prison system.”

🚨 A woman walking to work in Chicago gets snatched up off the street by ICE. Nothing American in this video. She keeps asking for help over and over. All she gets is a photographer taking her picture and hauled off like an animal. 1/2

Moskowitz: We need $30 billion to extend, obviously, these healthcare subsidies, which allow Americans—Americans, not illegal—Americans, citizens, to afford healthcare.

And the president’s like, “We don’t have $30 billion, but I am going to send $40 billion to my dear friend in Argentina.”

Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents. They’ve had their necks kneeled on. They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.

At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.

The so-called Homeland Security Secretary is a corrupt and malignant fraud.

This video she sanctioned is fake.

Manipulated by cowards who hide behind masks while violating the law.

At the very least the Mormon church should ex-communicate a certain Utah senator who takes glee in the suffering of others and posts hate about it on social media. Disgraceful and not a good look for a religion that sends it’s missionaries all over the world to gain more members.
