Anyone who thinks immigrating is easy has never been through the system. Even under the best circumstances, it's a confusing, lengthy process that often requires expensive legal advice.
This is unconscionable. Shame.

The leader of a theocratic, absolute-monarchy, human-rights-abusing state that murdered and dismembered an American journalist is welcomed by the President of the United States with a pat on the back because the president thinks it will make him rich.

With millions at risk of losing SNAP in the coming days, a reminder: hunger doesn't happen in isolation. When food assistance disappears, families use rent money to eat. Then come evictions and homelessness.
Housing, food, healthcare—it's all connected. Cut one thread and the whole thing unravels.

The Times apparently decided it wasn’t important to mention in the headline it was the ICE agent who shot the U.S. marshal.
Breaking News: A U.S. marshal and a man targeted by immigration authorities were injured by gunfire during a traffic stop in Los Angeles, officials said.
U.S. Marshal and Immigrant Are Shot During L.A. Traffic Stop
Officials said immigration officers fired shots after the man rammed a law enforcement vehicle. The immigrant and a marshal were wounded in the shooting.

also, in keeping with Vance’s view of american identity, only white people are fully American with the right to critique or dissent. nonwhites must show proper gratitude (supporting Trump or marrying JD Vance) before they can speak critically of the country (in approved ways, of course)
Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.

Be loving and gracious.

Andor nails it — Many of Nazism's earliest supporters ended up in the camps. The man who wrote 'First They Came For' was an anti-communist Minister who cheered the incarceration of socialists. The poem is a warning about the dangers of supporting authoritarianism that you think works for you.
