All joking aside, the immigrants’ rights community is fired up. You have the support of thousands and thousands of people who are going to fight as hard as we can to make sure this shit will not stand.

Of course the top comment is a “well actually...” about littering.

“Yeah but...”

Let me decode that for you, since I’ve been reading a lot of shit from Trump supporters since he started backpedaling on this. Here is a list of some things that people have claimed would be the same thing as getting “Mexico” to pay for it.

BUT HER EMAILS! Right Bernie Bros and Stein-heads. You can all go burn in hell for the part you played in making this nightmare a reality, fuck all of you.

Hahahaha we’re all gonna die but at least it will be because of decisions made by people with no experience #draintheswamp

Nothing I have hasn’t already been published online in other forms. I got there early and didn’t see anyone being arrested. There are fortunately dozens of other videos showing it happening with far more clarity.

Amazing that he knew he was being recorded and still didn’t care. Nothing new, but still astonishing to see how easy it is for some cops to abuse their authority without a care in the world.

We do think so, but I’m glad to hear Philly isn’t alone. And we’re stuck with the Dear Leader for a few days. Will be joining at least one protest this week. <3

The mayor of Pittsburgh, Bill Peduto, also put out a really wonderful statement expressing his hard intention for Pittsburgh to be a sanctuary city. I know a lot of you think we’re backwards hicks here but Pittsburgh is really trying.

Jew, reporting in! Guess who has two thumbs, a futon, and endless empathy for a refugee narrative? *this mensch*

My county (Montgomery County in MD) is staying a sanctuary city no matter what and I’m so damn proud of the people representing me right now. I will say it’s a wealthier county so it won’t be hurt as much as some others from the lack of federal funding.

Did you see the interview with Masha Gessen on Samantha Bee’s show? Gessen was imputing some fairly arcane motivations to Trump, and Samantha Bee basically wondered whether he was intelligent enough to devise such advance plans.

Mayor de Blasio decried the executive order as “immoral” and vowed to fight the President tooth and nail.

The immigration executive orders are a nightmare. They are the worst case scenario. People will be ripped from their American families, women will be raped and murdered in their home countries after being returned to their persecutors, children will be locked in jails for weeks at a time, hispanics will be profiled

Thank you. Jesus, WTF is going on? I feel like I’m in Nazi Germany and they are rounding up my neighbors and I’m just stupefied. Frozen in place. Knowing that I am next.

I think the reason it gets noted in stories like this is the idea that 200+ people were indiscriminately rounded up for being in the wrong place at the wrong time; I’d feel confident in saying, after seeing the videos of these protests, that there was nowhere near that number of people participating in destruction of
