MARCO RUBIO: This is probably one of the most important days for world peace in 50 years. That's not an exaggeration

You know MAGA is an incestuous cult because the entire world, especially Palestinians, realizes Israel just played Trump and there's no "peace in the Middle East."

However, Trump gets his ego stroked, and MAGA Reeks get to praise their King for a day.

ICE Serves Only to Terrorize and Occupy Americans

It's no longer just undocumented immigrants, Muslims, Black people, & pro-Palestinian activists who are targets. As ICE violently marches across American cities, the majority must stand up & resist.
