This budget bill is about the worst in a century. Increases the deficit to give tax cuts mainly to the top 1-2%.

Many of the super rich actually vote DEM and voted against the tax cut and don't want it.

The GOP is doing it anyway to make the Heritage Society happy.

You can’t “deport” US citizens. This is something far more sinister.
ICE deports immigrant mother of an infant and 3 children who are US citizens, lawyers say
Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers have in recent days deported a Cuban-born mother of a 1-year-old girl, separating them indefinitely.

"The catch is that in order to get attention, you have to be terrible. You have to lie or embrace evil. In the attention economy there is enormous demand for civic blasphemy. What’s hard is getting attention for messages about truth, or virtue, or love."
Why Cory Booker’s Speech Matters
Booker didn’t “accomplish” anything. He was a voice of one crying in the wilderness. And that’s how you build a dissident movement: with simple acts of witness.

Seeing folks on the other site claim that Alien Enemy Act removals are not reviewable by courts.

The statute explicitly requires "a full examination and hearing," and there are literally *dozens* of reported cases from the War of 1812, World War I, and World War II:
