      I mean 2 out of 4 believe the other 2 should be deported. 1 of those 2 don’t know that someone is trying to deport them. That’s the current state of America and how Trump got elected.

    The videos all over the internet expose everything. I can’t imagine what it looks like from a normal country on the outside.

    Most of them are in denial. Every time I bring it up to my friends they’re all like “yeah, but they won’t come after me.”

      You will need to keep that hand iced. Maybe splint at night. If the skin breaks, get an ACE wrap.

      Sorry, that sounds like a possibly risky amount of slapping you’ve been up to lately, especially if you’ve been (like most of us) in a low or no-slap lifestyle up until now.

    Since there are no rules and no due process 4 of 4 should be worried. If you think this isnt gonna escalate you are nuts.

      Unless something happened it was always going to escalate. The question was ever only the cause and whether any side would meet that escalation with their own. I started asking something similar during Covid and was told people didn’t want to risk someone spitting on them. I said it again after January 6th and people replied that they didn’t want to be targets by some psycho. A year ago when this started to become clear I asked why we weren’t out on the streets reminding the DNC what we need and I got the same answer then I’ve gotten in the past: I can’t take off of work/I need to pay my bills.

      So, my friends, is this enough yet?

    Have a coworker with family in Iran. She just got her citizenship, but I have no idea how much that is even worth in the modern moment.

    She’s a close friend and it was be a personal nightmare to lose her to some ICE thugs.

      Ogle and Mace sent an email asking to denaturalize primary winner of NYC. They’ll try and if they succeed they’ll do it to other people.

      They shipped out Kilmar Abrego Garcia for something a cop said in 2019 based on an unidentified informant and they make up new lies about him all the time. They’re absolutely not above lying that someone falsified information on their naturalization papers.

    Imagine what it’s doing to their children. Republicans and religious people who have a hand in this or turn a blind eye are filth. There’s no redemption for this.

      Pew’s latest study suggests that Trump would have won even if they all voted.

      Mostly because the majority of Americans seem to be OK with face eating leopards.

      Harris won more votes than Obama. Didn’t save her or the rest of the country.

      Also, and this cannot fail to bare mentioning, Harris and Biden both campaigned on a policy of mass deportation. Dems are still bragging that they deported more people than Trump. Mass deportation is a bipartisan policy.

        I have never seen a dem advertisement based on deportation.

        To say “both sides” campaigned on a policy of mass deportation is a straight up lie. Mass deportation isn’t bi-partisan as you say… with zero proof no links and nothing to back up your bs… you offer no proof and are therefor a liar.

      Especially when it’s not on a sunny Saturday. Seriously inconvenient and someone might get killed you know.
