Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.
Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Dear Senator Cassidy,

You said the worst thing BIDEN did was not prosecute.
It's not his job.
He appointed a highly qualified AG who proceeded far too cautiously, but his job interview didn't include "are you going to prosecute Donald Trump" because that's interference.

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders.
What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."
