I’ll never understand how one can be pro-life while also complaining about giving free meals at school to the children who are struggling with food security in this nation.

First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist

Then they came for the immigrants
And I did not speak out
Because I was not an immigrant

Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me...

So, the WH Deputy Chief of Staff says they're looking at suspending habeas and the mayor of a major city is arrested for seeking further information about possible ICE abuses in his city. In the past hour or two. We're already a police state but are teetering at the edge of something worse.
