The criminalization of people whose only "offense" was crossing a border in search of a better life has dire consequences.
The dehumanization of these individuals is leading to imprisonment without due process, family separation, and racial profiling.
It will only get worse.

DOGE’s Only Public Ledger Is Riddled With Mistakes
The figures from Elon Musk’s team of outsiders represent billions in government cuts. They are also full of accounting errors, outdated data and other miscalculations.

Did you know that 72 MILLION Americans rely on Medicaid for healthcare? The Trump Administration and MAGA Republicans in Congress want to take it away to give tax breaks to billionaires.
Don't let them take away our healthcare. Let them know you didn’t vote for this shit.

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

HELL YES:
Michael Steele delivers a genius game-plan to absolutely DERAIL the GOP.
Democrats need to STOP helping Republicans. “Let them choke on (their majority).”
His words were BLUNT:
“Y'all need to chill on this, all this kumbaya partisan bi-partisan crap.” He added.
