This is a huge deal. DHS has lied about this Chicago incident every step of the way and now all charges have been thrown out. It’s a reminder that you should not trust what the out of control border agents say about anything.

A reminder that when Christian Nationalists in the Republican Party lecture you about the importance of "religious freedom," they are not talking about YOUR religion or YOUR freedom. They are talking about THEIR freedom to impose THEIR religion on you.

We can't take advice about empathy from someone who is neurologically incapable of experiencing it. Elon cannot understand that it's a vital part of being fully human.
Calling empathy a "weakness" is like letting a color-blind person declare "Red isn't real" and "Green is destroying our society"
