The hammering of Mandani is really eye opening.

Sure some of what he’s called for may be tough to get done, but policies of the last many years have led to a disappearing middle class.

Democrats need to get on board with policies that help low and middle income people more.

The slide explains the history of concentration camps that have been created throughout America's history. Title reads: America is no new to inhumanely holding groups in concentration camps. The first and second images are of a Native American camps from the 1800s. The description: Native American camps: In 1819, the federal government instituted a program of state-sponsored abductions and forced assimilation of Native American children. It lasted 150 years and spawned a legacy of horrific abuse. The Cherokee were herded violently into internment camps, where they were kept for the summer of 1838. The Cherokee removal (May 25, 1838 – 1839), part of the Indian removal, refers to the forced displacement of an estimated 15,500 Cherokees and 1,500 African-American slaves from the U.S. states of Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee and Alabama to the West. It is estimated that 3,500 Cherokees and African-American slaves died en route. The third image is of Black slaves. The description: Black enslaved people: During the Civil War (1861-1865), the Union Army was re-capturing freed slaves throughout the South and pressing them into hard labor in disease-ridden "contraband camps," as escaped and freed slaves were considered captured enemy property. It is estimated that upward of 200 camps existed during the war. Sources: Pulitzer Center, Wikipedia, AP News This slide continues the history of American concentration camps. Title reads: America is no new to inhumanely holding groups in concentration camps. The first image is of a Japanese internment camp from the 1940s. The description is: Japanese internment camps 1942- 1946: During World War II, the United States forcibly relocated and incarcerated about 120,000 people of Japanese descent in ten concentration camps operated by the War Relocation Authority, mostly in the western interior of the country. About two-thirds were U.S. citizens. The second image is of Alligator Alcatraz. The description is: “Alligator Alcatraz” opened in 2025 and is already imprisoning immigrants without due process, which per the Constitution, protects all people on U.S. soil. National Guard, ICE agents, and GOP are allowed into the facility, but Democrats are not allowed in to do their congressional oversight on the conditions therein because they are Trump’s political enemies. Sources: Pulitzer Center, Wikipedia, AP News This slide compares images of concentration camps from the 1940s to those in 2025. Title reads: we’ve been here before... Subheading reads: To deny the existence of direct parallels of what is happening now to what has happened before is to be ignorant of history and to reject reality. Three images on the left side show camps from California (1942), Arizona (1942), and Auschwitz (1944). The images compared to them on the right are from Texas (2025), Florida (2025), and CECOT in El Salvador (2025). Image Source: Wikipedia Title for the slide: ...but it’s up to we the people to put pressure on our government to stop cruel treatment of immigrants. There are three images shown. The first is a tweet from Mrs. Betty Bowers, stating, "In a matter of days, we can house migrants, but not our homeless. Because being cruel is always the motivation. #AlligatorAuschwitz" The image is of trailers at Alligator Alcatraz. The second image is of people protesting at the facility. The third image is a tweet from Florida GOP, stating, "Feds approve Alligator Alcatraz: Florida's gator-guarded prison for illegal aliens. Surrounded by swamps and pythons, it's a one-way ticket to regret. Grab out merch to support tough-on-crime borders! Limited supply - get yours before the gators do!" It shows an image of the merch available. Text underneath these images reads: Keep up the pressure. Keep protecting our immigrant neighbors.
