Trump isn't going to personally imprison you, just as Biden wasn't personally arresting campus protestors.
It will be carried out by the local law enforcement you love to give money to and invite to community events.

So now that the dust has settled a bit and we have a lot more data in, how did the media do in reporting about Latino voters after the election? Here's four facts we know from the 2024 American Electorate Voter Poll. Is this what you understood? Or are you surprised to see this now?

It is illegal to fire workers for unionizing. We know it, the NLRB knows it, and the Dallas Black Dance Theatre knew it when they fired their workers for unionizing. Yesterday we stood with the dancers on the picket line! Solidarity with all workers of the world. Dallas Black Bring Them Back!
