We’re taking in these South African “persecuted refugees” who clearly haven’t been worried about where their next meals will come from…
But we’re not accepting kids from Gaza who are actually starving?
Shameful.

Immigrants are working people. This isn’t a separate fight. An attack on one is an attack on ALL of us.

Over 100 countries offered assistance to the US after 9/11. None of them asked for their money back, demanded a thank you, insisted on quid pro quo, or suggested we consider capitulating to terrorists.
