Illegal, unconstitutional, and an elevation of ICE’s encroachment. This needs to have national attention. 1/2

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.
The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.
It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.
Textbook corporate greed.

"Basing your support for ICE raids on terrified immigrants on a relatively obscure passage in a relatively obscure Old Testament story is a good example of what is known as prooftexting – the citing of some verse somewhere to support your predetermined beliefs."

This is the rambling of a man who knows history will remember him as the president who empowered Putin, attacked our allies, and then cried about the election long enough that a dictator saw an opening. Trump didn’t prevent this war. He enabled it.
