Rob Reiner and his work will be forever remembered for how he/it shaped America for the betterment of all.

This is exactly what the guy in the Oval Office so desperately craves…but will never have.

Undecided voter: “How can someone like you convince me that my vote matters”

James Talarico: “They wouldn't be trying so hard to stop you from voting if your vote didn't matter — Texas is one of the hardest places to vote in the entire country. That is by design”

Farming is a $1.7T business, 70% of workers are migrants, 40% of them are undocumented.

As reported in the enclosed, some of the migrant workers in US legally are not showing up for work because they are fearful of ICE-S.

Don't expect prices to fall soon.

I am convinced America crossed an event horizon thirteen years ago, when even the deaths of elementary school aged children at the hands of a monster weren't enough for their government to say "enough is enough". Hard not to think that Americans would rather have their guns over their children.

Rob Reiner either made your favorite movie, or made somebody you know’s favorite movie. If you’re a Californian, he’s also part of the reason you or your friends can get married. He has changed more lives for the better than this asshole commenting on him ever did.

"ICE and CBP must be abolished" is the only reasonable position. We can debate the specifics of new agencies for immigration functions, but these agencies are simply too infected with a culture of impunity, racism, and fascism to continue. They're gangs with badges.
Armed ICE agents trapped US citizens in a restaurant and demanded their papers. Federal agents walked into East African restaurants in Cedar-Riverside, MN. They closed and blocked the doors. Then they demanded to see everyone’s papers. Every person present was a US citizen.
