Rand Paul: "When you kill someone, if you're not in a declared war, you really need to know someone's name at least. You have to accuse them of something. You have to present evidence. So all of these people have been blown up without any evidence of a crime."

What happens if you don’t do background checks or training for thousands of people and you give them all total authority?
ICE has been caught looting and destroying property at Pittsburgh restaurants. They even tried to break into the safes. They loaded food, supplies and equipment into vehicles

Reform UK was created to make Brexit happen.
Nigel Farage spent 27yrs promising Brexit would make British people richer.
Now both Nigel Farage & Reform Party officials say Brexit, their main policy, is making Brits poorer.
ANYONE WHO STILL BACKS REFORM IS A TRAITOR TO THE UK!

The threat to our society is not from asylum seekers in small boats. It’s from politicians and media cynically whipping up fear and prejudice, labelling them all as criminals, inciting hatred against people for where and what they’ve fled from.
It must stop. For all our sakes. It’s deeply sinister.

Just awful: A 75-year-old man just died in ICE custody, ICE has revealed in a notice to Congress.
But here's the rub: This man, a Cuban national, was first paroled into the US in 1966—nearly 60 years ago! They were set to deport him anyway.
