This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

The Fight Against Trump Isn’t Over
Now I get it — you’re probably tired of being told to just keep voting. But state and local offices have a huge impact on your day-to-day life. Electing people-powered leaders who believe in democracy and the rule of law will be instrumental in pushing back against Trump and his billionaire cronies’ lawless agenda. So please register, volunteer, donate, and vote. You DO have a voice. And right now it’s more important than ever to join the fight against fascism in America. You can go to Vote.org or Ballotpedia.org to look up the elections happening where you live. Remember: Tyranny cannot prevail over people who refuse to succumb to it. Don’t agonize. Organize!
