Amen.
Amen.
It makes me so sad that all our hope lays upon Reince Priebus. How did we end up here?!?
One of the associates at my firm actually suggested that MAYBE, JUST MAYBE Trump was doing all this to bring America together.
This was a gift. A beautiful gift.
My normal reaction for just about anything that hurts someone“Jesus Christ that fucking sucks”
Nah they didnt mind if refugees come but they wanted to keep those dirty Mexicans out.
I have zero sympathy. ZERO. And I feel bad for everyone. If you didnt care that Trump and every single Republican said REPEATEDLY “We are repealing Obamacare but we wont tell you with what we will replace it with” and you voted for them DESPITE benefiting from Obamacare, zero fucks given.
I think we have some rouge CBP officials in O’hare too. They detained 3 different Mexican nationals who had valid visas that had been used before for over 6 hours. I personally interviewed the families. I witnessed only 1 released. She said she was locked in a room and interrogated for a long time.
US citizens are also being detained. I personally interviewed a man who was waiting for a family of 6 (step mom and 5 kids) with Jordanian descent who had been detained 4+ hours (at the time I left O’hare) who assured me that the step mom had U.S. Citizenship AND a U.S. passport.
This is 100% true.
But President Orange Rind is doing the right kind of martial law. The kind that keeps those uppity minorities in check.
Kinda like how the people who voted for him in Mississippi and Georgia have 20 people dead from tornadoes and the Republican Governors are BEGGING for FEMA help and Trump is no where to be found. http://www.salon.com/2017/01/25/im-begging-fema-for-boots-on-the-ground-donald-trump-leaves-gop-leaders-begging-for-aid-afte…
Or the same people that would have thrown fits if the first black Democrat president said he would send “the feds” to a large conservative city?
And dont forget THE EMAILS!
Yup. The hypocrisy is the worst. My aunt used to tell me “White people dont wanna know that they are doing something wrong, at best you can just try to direct them to something right.” She knew I was right when I would call all the White Feminism TM bullshit. But she also knew that me and my fam and other POC wouldnt…
I have many thoughts on this, and while I think you have a good point, certainly one that was frequently discussed in my family, my uncle brought up the counterpoint: We have to rely on primarily white and legal US citizens to help us.
I find that saving their number in your phone increases your odds of calling because it is so easy.
Call your senator and your rep. Put their phone number in your phone and call them on your drive to work or while walking to the store or while you are on your lunch break or whenever. Call frequently. Call often.
