The White House's memes about imprisonment, deportation, and death by alligator are designed to radicalize and desensitize.

“They should’ve come here legally,” MAGA says. Well, they did. One Afghan interpreter was arrested after a green card appointment. Another? Detained after his asylum hearing. Both helped U.S. troops. Now ICE wants to deport them.

We have a madman in the White House who is actively trying to trigger total war.
If Jeffries, Schumer, or any other Democratic leaders try to justify this, shrug indifferently, or write a strongly-worded letter and call it a day, they need to step down or be aggressively primaried.
