Rep. Johnson: If you have to produce a passport in order to register to vote, we have tens of millions of people in this country that don't have access to passports. Are we going to then waive the passport fee of $150 so it's not an unreasonable poll tax?

Trump reposting a video of the Obamas as "apes" during Black History Month and no Republican officials as of yet condemning him is another reason why every one of them needs to be defeated at the ballot box and shunned in public.

Ironic isn’t it? Had an ICE thug been hurt at the very same location 5 minutes earlier, Alex would have dropped everything to save his life.
